Thoughts? I personally think this is a pretty badass, diverse selection. The inclusion of the Rev, Dick Dale, Stray Cats and Primus kinda suprised me, in a very good way. I can't wait to get my hands on this.

Coincidentally, I picked up the November issues of PlayStation Magazine, which includes a GH2 playable demo showcasing "Shout at the Devil", "Strutter", "YYZ", and "You Really Got Me."

Dallasses, expect an invitation for a Guitar Hero party from me at some point.

Discuss.

My GH2 debut number will be Girlfriend by Matthew Sweet, fo' sho!

I wouldn't necessarily call it "thrash and burn" but it does have a nice little break in there.

Looks like a fun line-up of songs.

OMMFK! I knew about a lot of these, but there were a lot of songs I didn't. I might as well quit my job right now.

Well, shit. I think I'm about to jump on the Guitar Hero bandwagon.

OK, so I played through the demo disc several times last night. Needless to say, it is indeed the shit. "YYZ" was quite possibly one of the most fun Guitar Hero tracks I've played, including the first game. The triple-chords were a bitch to get acclimated to at first, but provide a more accurate sense of fretwork as opposed to button-mashing.

Can't wait to get the full version, and especially check out the new multiplayer modes.

Holy effin shit!

I read about this the other day but it still blows my mind!

I finally got my hands on the original through Gamefly (you were right Justin, playing with the controller is a bitch!) Now I must go by the original w/guitar and get the sequel as soon as possible!

Aren't some of these going to be next to impossible to play?
