AtomicGamer writes: "From the perspective of a Metallica fan that already owns a full set of World Tour or Rock Band instruments and wants to play together with friends, the purchase of GH: Metallica is a no-brainer. For someone who's just getting into music games, it's still a good starting point as the difficulty is just fine and Metallica's crisp sounds lend themselves well to a game like this - and yes, Lars Ulrich's drumming is a damn good reason to buy the full band kit, even if Hetfield's singing isn't much of a good reason for having the mic. The only people I really can't recommend the game to are those who thoroughly hated World Tour or those who are just incredibly sick of music games like it, but in that case I imagine they're not even reading this review. So, the chances are that if you've gotten this far, then Guitar Hero: Metallica is very, very likely to be worth your hard-earned cash".

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?
