Just to clarify we get

Guitar Hero III - 10/07

Guitar Hero Aerosmith - 06/08

Guitar Hero World Tour - 10/08 (considered GH4, next in main series)

Guitar Hero Metallica - Q1 09

That'll be 4 fully priced games (Aerosmith/Metallica are considered spinoffs but will probably cost full price like Rock the 80s) in around 15 months! Talk about whoring out a franchise. And it would be pretty foolish not to assume with that strategy that GH5 will be out 10/09. At this rate GH13 will be released before FF13....

I guess it's good news for fans of Metallica but personally I think i'll stick with Rock Band. The massive DLC means they'll put out a similar quantity of music if not more when all is said and done but I can pick and choose which songs to grab.

The only problem I forsee is that when GH:Aerosmith was announced it came out that they signed an exclusive deal with Activision barring any further Aerosmith songs on Rock Band (until the deal expires at least). If Activision does this with Metallica and more bands it's gonna suck.

Don't forget about On Tour for the DS.

This series got whored out pretty fast. At this rate, it's going to become irrelevant just as quickly.
