Activision has finalized the track listing for Guitar Hero: Metallica due March 29th exclusively for the Xbox 360 and PS3, with a release for the Wii and PS2 sometime soon after (I’ve heard May at the earliest). Originally thought to be another Guitar Hero: Aerosmith, Neversoft/Activision’s lackluster and lukewarm first venture into a band themed GH, this new project seems much more ambitious. Aerosmith featured just a mere 41 songs, a long shot away from GH: World Tour’s impressive 86. GH: Metallica will feature nearly “60 songs,” a step above Aerosmith’s game.
The 60 songs includes their newest album, which fully integrates into the game once downloaded. However, if you don’t have the Death Magnetic DLC album, then the list drops down to around 50, yet a much more respectable 50, with only 11 tracks from the post-1991 era, barring their newest album.
Although the Metallica content is vast and impressive (it sure beats the hell out of Aerosmith), some tracks are repeats from previous GH and Rock Band releases, which I really don’t understand. Not only were some Metallica songs repeated, but their “influenced by” selection also is comprised of some. Yes, I know those repeated songs are Metallica classics, but that doesn’t mean the integrity of the game should be compromised because the developers felt like they could get away with reusing songs that have “influenced” Metallica (I dunno about you, but the last time I checked System of a Down sounded just a smidgen different) . Being the GH whore that I am though, I will buy this game unconditionally. Then realize its severe mediocrity when I’ve completed each song on Expert in less than 24 hours (oh wait, that was GH: Aerosmith). For now though, the setlist:
| Metallica, Various Albums
• “All Nightmare Long”
• “Battery”
