Activision confirms GH3 tracks

By Robert Purchese Published 3 October, 2007

Dated for November.

Activision has finally given us a look at its song sheet for Guitar Hero III, which contains more master tracks than ever, thanks to fancy relationships with musical people.

What's more, it looks as though that leaked line-up from a couple of weeks ago wasn't far off being spot on, give or take a few licks.

The third game in the acclaimed rhythm action series has been created without usual developer Harmonix, who made new best friends with Rock Band publishers EA and MTV.

However, Guitar Hero III still promises many riches: wireless guitars, expanded online multiplayer, availability on just about every platform - that's on top of better visuals, unlockables, and new downloadable content.

Guitar Hero III will be released for PS3, 360, PC, Wii and PS2 on 23rd November. A DS spin-off will follow in 2008.

Look below for the entire line-up to date.
