The bands I would love to see be on Guitar Hero: 80s
Merovingian | 4:42 AM on 06.07.2007 7 comments


It's no secret that the 80s wasn't that great for rock music, but it was still pretty fucking good. I believe there are better bands out there that are deserving to be on the 80s edition of Guitar Hero and also are probably a shit ton better than most of those bands. Well, here they are:

Van Halen
Aerosmith
Ozzy Osbourne (Randy Rhoades days)
Any hardcore punk band like Black Flag (fuck the Ramones, although I respect them for being the dawn of punk music)
Guns N Roses
Queen
AC/DC
Iron Maiden
The Smiths
Michael Jackson

Yeah, that's all I have to say.

First blog post about being smashed.

So, as I down this six pack of 16oz budweisers & listen to Pelican's City of Echoes album, I write this blog post...

I own a 360 and I'm currently unhappy with the lack of games right now. Forza 2 just came out and I played the demo for it. Although I had a nice time playing it, all I could think about were the jagged lines. I mean, what the fuck? This is suppose to be next gen and I expect for these "next gen" titles to have the full package. And by "full package" I mean, outstanding gameplay and outstanding graphics. When playing the Forza 2 demo, I felt like I was playing a last gen game only because of the graphics. I know that one shouldn't judge a game solely on graphics, but for me I want my games to both play good & fucking look good. I didn't buy a 360 to play old Xbox games even though I'm currently playing Ninja Gaiden Black on my 360. I bought it for a new.., I don't even know what the fuck to call it. Isn't this suppose to be the era of high definition? I like my high def content crisp, clean, sharp, etc. Aliasing is so 1996 kthx.

Anyways, one of the first 360 games I bought was Gears of War, because it looked damn good and it made me say "Holy shit. I have to play this game." The game is good. Yeah.., I really don't know where I want to go with this.

I just hope that the games that were said to come out this year actually come out this year. The whole expansive cities that claim to be in Assassin's Creed seem promising plus the producer for Assassin's Creed is fucking hot! idk about GTA4, but I'm still buying it. I'm also buying Halo 3 even when I haven't played / finished the first two Halo games. I keep trying to play Halo 1, but I just can't finish it. IMO it's nothing special. There are far better FPS's''s''s out there. Yeah, and I'll get Mass Effect.

What's up with Spore being announced so early? Vaporware anyone? But that's another post. Maybe.
