GameZone writes: "Neversoft took on the Guitar Hero franchise a couple of years ago and it has been a labor of love. The development team took the established franchise and truly made it a Neversoft game. Since GH 3 in 2007, Neversoft has tackled individual bands like Aerosmith and the entire band concept with World Tour. Next up is another game with the central focus on one band – Metallica.
GameZone was offered the opportunity to do an interview with the dev team about putting together an expansion for Guitar Hero and leapt at the chance. Alan Flores, lead designer for Neversoft, was gracious enough to take time to chat with GZ about Guitar Hero Metallica due to be released at the end of March."

In many ways video games and heavy metal go hand in hand, at least when their digits aren’t occupied with a multiplayer match and/or mind-melting guitar solo. A huge number of games revel in the savagery metal is known for, letting you eviscerate armies of enemies just as soundly as fierce riffs eviscerate mortal souls. Games like Gears of War, Manhunt, Dead Space, and Postal are all examples of carnage, violence, and destruction, so they're totally metal, right?
Brutal Legend soundtrack it's epic, probably one of the best ever. Shadows of the Damned it's awesome, so underrated, sadly.
Bayonetta and Twisted Metal are classics, i still need to play Splatterhouse.
The rumors are swirling, so The Geek Culture has a few suggestions on how Activision can bring back Guitar Hero right.
Ubisoft announced recently that it will be releasing a new guitar-based video game called Rocksmith. Unlike Guitar Hero and Rockband, this game will allow gamers to actually learn how to play the guitar rather than just pressing a set of colored buttons.
So is Rocksmith the guitar game aspiring musicians have been truly looking for?
