Just wanted to put this up here so maybe Harmonix can see what the people loved and hated for Guitar Hero so they can hopefully adjust their list for Rock Band.

Personally, I can't stand these songs

Nirvana- Heart Shaped box. Yeah its a good song but it's too slow and boring as hell to play
Police - Message in a bottle. Same reason
Primus - John the Fisherman. same thing over and over
Sword - Freya. ugh ugh ugh ugh
Lamb of God - Laid to Rest - only play it just to get through career mode
Reverend Horton Heat - Psychobilly Freakout - Too much of a jumbled mess to enjoy
Suicidal Tendencies - Institutionalized, I get that its a classic and all but it just annoys the crap out of me.

I am looking forward to these for Rock band though

Don't fear the Reaper
Go with the flow
In bloom
Learn to fly
Main Offender
Paranoid
Reptilia!!!!!! Yes Yes YES! more please
Rockaway Beach
Say it ain't so
Tom Sawyer
Vasoline

And everything off of Guitar hero 1 is a keeper. Does anyone know if Harmonix can offer up GH1 and 2 tracks for full band mode as DLC? Even if they have to build it all up again it'll be worth it for most songs

Bad song, not fun

Tattooed Love Boys
Freya

Bad/Annoying song, fun to play

Laid to Rest
Stop
Institutionalized
Psychobilly Freakout (fun on Hard, at least)

Good song, not fun

Message in a Bottle (waaaay too repetitive, lots of empty spaces)
War Pigs (lots of empty spaces, pretty repetitive)

Well, PbFo leans more towards the side of annoying than bad, tbh.

I liked War Pigs and Psychobilly Freakout. The songs I hate are,

John the Fisherman
Laid to Rest
Tattooed Love Boys
Freya

And the number 1 worst song on GH is Institutionalized. It's not even singing!!! It's just him talking about how he wanted a Pepsi and then his parents throwing him in a madhouse!!! It sucks soooo bad. Thank God, I never played that "Yes We Can" song.

Tonight I'm gonna Rock You
Tattooed Love Boys (worst)
Stop

Other than that I really liked the song list.

But whoever decided that Tattooed Love Boys should make it in should be fired.

Well if we turned off the guitar then it kind of defeats the purpose of a guitar game right?

honestly, I dislike most of the song selections but they're still fun as hell to play so whatever. I dont care if they add songs I hate just as long as they make them enjoyable to play.

Message In A Bottle Is Soooooooo Gaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyy

Ah, get ****ed. The Police is one of the greatest bands of all time.


And Institutionalized is awesome. The singing is funny and the guitars are challenging (and awesome). Honestly astounds me sometimes how many people hate it.

John the Fisherman? Great. Not the best song by Primus, but one of my favorites. I've always found it strange how there's such talent in all three members (Tim was in the Blue Man Group, Ler studied guitar under Satriani, and Les..well, he's Les Claypool) but their fans still seem to be so few and far between. It's damn good music, people.

Herat shaped box-its just depressing
Cherry pie-Just way boring
I love rock n roll-what was u thinkin putting that in gh 1-brittany spears ruined it

Made in mexico-GO back to MEXICO-YOU SUCK! Both of your songs.

Put in more jimi hendrix and cream as you did in gh1.

put more count zero, anarchy club, and drist in rock band as bonus songs cause they all had 2 great songs in both games

I can't believe there's been only two people who hate Yes We Can.

Oh wait, that's probably because no one wanted to touch that terrible monstrosity of "talent".
BTW, Weezy24, turns out Made in Mexico is a bunch of white kids in Rhode Island.

I didn't comment on bonus songs that I didn't like. You don't have to play them at all. Unless of course you want that 10 point achievement on XBL.

Heart shaped box-Nirvana sucks(My opinion alone not anyone elses'.)
The 4th or 5th tier of Guitar Hero 2 I'm not sure which one but I didn't really like the songs on that tier.
Elephant bones- I don't like rap rock.
Yes We Can-Crappy guitar parts, makes me want to throw something.

I never had the chance to play the first Guitar Hero game but the tracks on there are pretty good.

Trogdor was about the worst song on there. The song is from a web cartoon, it was created by some dude who created Homestarrunner, and it's very very short. They chose only for the guitar and the screaming

Personally, I thought most of the bonus songs in GHII were lame. The only I can remember liking was the DethKlok song.

Other songs I didn't like: Killer Queen, Ziggy Stardust, and Tripppin on a Hole in a Paper Heart.

There's actually a bunch of songs in GHII that I didn't like but, since its been a while since I've played it, I can't remember them all.

Jessica and Message in a Bottle.

Message in a Bottle is a good song to listen to but crap for GH.

Jessica just sucks all together.

The Sword's Freya, without a doubt. I never played such repetitive hard rock before. Them guys should never make it to stardom.

With a close second place to Scandal's The Warrior. Not like it has the same downside than this other one, but it's sooooo boring... No wonder no one but Seth MacFarlane remembered them before.

What are you on!? Duane Allman was one of the best guitarists of the 70's, Jessica is simply amazing. And Heart is an AWESOME band from the 70's as well, try listening to Barracuda or Magic Man.

08-05-2007, 09:23 PM
Jessica and Tattoed Love Boys are the worst GH songs. I also hated playing Message In A Bottle and Heartshaped Box, even though both of them are really good songs. And for some reason I did not like Shout At The Devil...
