"Eurogamer has been told that Hard Rock Van Halen (August), Guitar Hero 5 (presumably a working title - September), DJ Hero (October), and Band Hero (November) are among games planned for release on PS3, Xbox 360, Wii and PS2 in 2009."
PlayStation Universe takes a look back at some of the games and moments where David Bowie's music struck a chord in videogames.
Ended up doing quite well with ziggy stardust on GH; was only on medium but I still consider it an achievement 😃
Wasn't David Bowie in a Quantic Dreams game during the PS2 era?
These tracks wouldn’t be half as big if it wasn’t for Activision’s button-shredding megafranchise.
The writer of this article is obviously musically incompetent. Free Bird, nor Lynyrd Skynyrd, owes debt to anyone concerning their music and especially concerning Free Bird. It is one of the greatest and most highly ranked songs in the history of rock music, not to mention it contains one of the top ten guitar solos in rock history. I realize that in order to be considered great in the music industry these days all you have to do is copy something that someone else did years ago, but you should do a little research before making totally ridiculous and inaccurate statements.
Surprisingly enough, Thanksgiving is the perfect time to rediscover this gem.
Funny, went to my Daughter's house over the weekend. We played Rock Band, first time in about two years. It was just as much fun as I remembered.
@ Sayburr: "Rock Band Night" was a frequently used term for me and my mates too !
wats the point? don't u think activision should just stop after greasest hits is released? i mean there's no point in continuing this franchise.
GH5?!?
What?!?
Activision will surely be the reason behind the demise of their franchise!
should of been Guitar Hero: Iron Maiden, or nothing.
Van Halen would be cool. But they need to stop pumping out multiple games a year. Design a good set of instruments and do like rock band, stick with dlc.
Activision what are you doing? Do they really think people will fork over another 50~60 dollars for another (or rather More) guitar Hero games? When they could have simply places them up on the Wii Shop, Xbox Live, and PSN for a price close to 3.00 4.00 per song (if it's master maybe) and perhaps 10.00 for albums [random prices off the top of my head if they seem to high that's why :)]
Overall It seems like these choices activision are making are going to drive them straight into the ground when people aren't buying their "new" games. Also with Guitar Hero World Tour already out is Band Hero really needed? Starting to wonder if stores will have enough shelf space come 2010. Activision seems to be taking them all..
