I wonder if the game will feature the drums and mic as well, either way, I like the list, and will most likely be getting it.

I stopped buying Guitar Hero after GHIII, because they're only going to whore the franchise more and more now that Activision has had it....but Metallica is my favorite metal band, so this is a first day buy

Yeah, they are sort of milking this GH thing while they can. Although I like the band, the Aerosmith game was so-so.

This brings up a good discussion though. What band would you like to see have a full GH game?

I vote Rush! They have plenty of good tunes to choose from.

I already pre-orderd the GH Metallica game.  I can't wait, it's gonna be badass.  I just hope the bonus GH pedal works with Rock Band, because that's the kit I have.  Either way, should be badass.

As for any other bands I wish had their own GH game, since Metallica is my second favorite band, I would have to vote for my first favorite band, which is Megadeth.

Won't be getting this.

That's a pretty capable setlist. I'll probably pick this up.

When I win the lottery, anyway.

will this work with the rockband guitar? (the first rockband)
