Full Guitar Hero: World Tour set-list News

PlayStation 2 Xbox 360 PlayStation 3 Wii
News by Robert Purchese

12 September, 2008

Activision has finally concreted the list of 86 songs to be available on the Guitar Hero: World Tour disc that launches in October. So hopefully they'll stop sending us 15 press releases a week. We hate Sting.

We love Sting really, and he's among those we knew about, although rather a lot of that leaked old track list turned out to be wide of the mark.

Bon Jovi will be there though with "Livin' On A Prayer", which we may or may not have on our iPod, as will Survivor's "Eye of the Tiger". That might also be on our playlist.

There's lots and lots to look through, including those exclusive tracks captured as a result of deals with the to-be-playable rock stars Jimi Hendrix, Ozzy Osbourne and more.

Here's that list in alphabetical order:

  • 311 - "Beautiful Disaster"
  • 30 Seconds To Mars - "The Kill"

Some good stuff on here, I quite like the fact that there are artists I don't know as I might find some new bands to listen to. Beat It solo could be quite interesting with the new tappable part of the fretboard.

Wings - wtf :S

I find some of the song choices confusing. Jimmy Eat World=cool, but not Bleed American? WTF?

Still buying it for Tool though.

+1 to the 'where is the QOTSA?


EDIT: Hang on wasn't Linkin Park - In The End confirmed before now? What happened to that?

Pull Me Under = sold

Not a bad set list, but using artists multiple times is a bit meh unless you are a fan of said band.

Not as good as I'd hoped but still strong.
More Skynard, Hendrix and Van Halen = WIN. Oasis can fuck off though, I thought it was guitar hero world tour. Oasis don't have a guitar hero and they can't sell records around the world. :)

Wouldn't it have made more sense to release this 24 hours ago so that it might have had some impact on potential first day PS2, PS3 and Wii Rock Band sales in Europe? I bought mine today and there's no way I'm buying another one with another set of peripherals any time soon. I'm not made of storage cupboards, ya know.

Apart from Lynyrd, Hendrix and Michael Jackson, the Rock Band 2 setlist beats this one into the floor. I just wish the fake setlist had been true, Megadeth's Tornado Of Souls would have been epic.

EDIT: Good lord, I missed Pull Me Under while scanning down the list. It's worth it just for that!

Meh, I absolutely loved GH1 & 2 on the PS2 (& 360), but 3 got old fast & I didn't rate the Aerosmith demo.

Personally I prefer Rock Band these days, although I don't think any of them have had as good a set-list as the original Guitar Hero game on PS2 (in terms of the fun-to-play factor). Sure I prefer some of the songs (to listen to) on the more recent titles but as cheesy as some of the tracks on the original where, they were all damn good fun to play. Even the bonus songs. (Behind The Mask & Even Rats in particular)

ZZ-Top, Queens of The Stone Age, Audioslave, Motorhead, Cream, Queen, Hendrix, Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, David Bowie, Red Hot Chili Peppers... Hell even Boston & Sum41 were great fun to play, and for me it's never been topped.

Shame.

Our of Sting's entire impressive song catalogue they pick "Demolition Man"? Hmmmm...
Something by The Police might also have been a better choice.

Still, nice tracklist. It would be nice though if I'd be able to use my GH3 DLC...

Any word on when there'll be a patch to remove the shitty Coldplay song and all mention of it from the game?

I actually hate Coldplay so much that I'm significantly less likely to buy the game if their shite turns up in the playlist proper.

Quite bland and boring if you ask me. A few decent songs but nothing that makes me want to buy it. The same goes for Rock Band 2.

Does anyone else feel the market is saturated now?

Go your own way is enough for me, perfect song, with Lindsey's outro

All though the 10 minute odesey that is "I'm so afraid" live would have been awesom

I think the "right artist, wrong song" problem is simply because they have to strike a balance between finding a song that actually sounds good, and a song that would play well in that particular game.

Rock Band seemed to forget this, which is why a lot of the guitar note charts go "Red - Red - Red - Red - Red - Red, Repeat, but with green".

Right bands wrong songsin most cases....except everlong obviously.
seems the way with guitar hero, always choose good bands and then they seem to choose a b-side or something fairly crap that hardly anyone knows. for instane, i like assasin by muse...but fuck there are atleast 12 songs by muse that are much better. i get that they don't want to choose songs that are overplayed because they want it to feel fresh but ffs.

(heh tokio hotel....hmmm rockband much, good song though so i don't mind)

Very mediocre in my opinion, but yeah.

Some really odd choices too, they could have picked about 10 better Stone Roses songs than that. Oh well.

Trapped under ice is a good and not obvious choice for a 'tallica track.
