The short review is this: If you are a Metallica fan this game is made for you, you will love it and cherish it. If you are not, your capacity for noise will be tested, your patience in the face of songs that never end will be stretched, and your left hand will be very angry with you. Being somewhere in between those extremes – a person that likes approximately 4 Metallica songs – El33tonline found it a polished, well packaged Guitar Hero game worthy of a part-time metal fan's time. But if your favourite songs in the previous games have been the ones by Boston then you're probably not going to find too much to suit your taste and had better wait for Guitar Hero: East Coast Classics.
