Rumour: Rage Against the Machine axeman in 'Guitar Hero III'?

The Pulse of Radio (formerly Launch Radio Networks) reports: Rage Against The Machine guitarist Tom Morello will reportedly appear as a character in the upcoming video game Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock. Although it's not officially confirmed, Morello's participation was apparently cited on some European promotional materials for the game which have surfaced online. The former Audioslave axeman will portray a "boss battle rocker" along with Velvet Revolver's Slash and others.

In other Guitar Hero III news, Atreyu may have a yet-to-be-announced track included in the game, while Pantera may also be represented by the song "Revolution Is My Name". Both will join a lineup that includes Metallica, Queens of the Stone Age, Smashing Pumpkins, Muse, Weezer, Guns N' Roses, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Velvet Revolver, Pearl Jam, AFI and more.

Yeah I've known about this for a while, I thought I read it here...

Anyway there are supposedly 3 bosses. 2 known artists, and one fictional character.

1) Slash
2) Tom Morello
3) My guess is the Grim Reaper... Not confirmed though.

Well if Tom is in GHIII at least Neversoft have done 1 thing right. Even if it is for a feature that sucks. C'mon, boss battles? pfft!

Guitar Hero? Sure. Activision greed and bulls**t? No thanks.

subtenko2480d ago

No we DONT need guitar hero or rockband. These games have had 7+titles each console cycle and Im tired of these being the mainstream and practically only focused on musical game.

Amplitude was brought back for PS4 yet with the tech and magic of DLC we didnt get it because not only gamers but devs have become out of touch.

Thumper impressed many and is at least a step in the right direction. I rather have more games like thumper. So screw all this rockband and Guitar hero BS! Take your guitars and peripherals and break them in half!
