View Full Version : Harmonix screws Neversoft (not really)

Setting: An alternate reality where Harmonix despises Neversoft and everything they stand for.

Date: A week prior to the release of Guitar Hero World tour

Details: Harmonix announces that the 20 'free' songs will be available the day World Tour is released. They are as follows -

311 - “Beautiful Disaster”
Blink-182 - “Dammit”
Bob Seger & The Silver Bullet Band - “Hollywood Nights”
Creedence Clearwater Revival - “Up Around The Bend”
Filter - “Hey Man, Nice Shot”
Jimi Hendrix - “Purple Haze”
Korn - “Freak On A Leash”
Lenny Kravitz - “Are You Gonna Go My Way”
Lynyrd Skynyrd - “Sweet Home Alabama”
Michael Jackson - “Beat It”
No Doubt - “Spiderwebs”
Ozzy Osbourne - “Crazy Train”
Pat Benatar - “Heartbreaker”
R.E.M. - “The One I Love”
Sublime - “Santeria”
Ted Nugent - “Stranglehold”
The Doors - “Love Me Two Times”
The Eagles - “Hotel California”
Tool - “Schism”
Van Halen - “Hot For Teacher”

Now, I know this will never happen, but I'm sure most people would admit that this would be an unbelievable song list. I won't be surprised to see at least a few songs from Guitar Hero make it into the 20 DLC songs.

Haha yes. Maybe that's why they haven't confirmed them yet? They were waiting for the GHWT setlist to be announced?

I would guess so. It'd probably be a smart move on there part, at least competition-wise.

That'd be hilarious!
I'd be really disappointed with the 20 Free DLC, but it'd be hilarious, nonetheless...

If HMX had managed to license all that, then yes, this would be THE epic win of game franchise wars.

Well, the 6 songs I liked from the GH:WT list is in that list, so it would completely destroy any urge I might have to play GH:WT.

Of course, I would change that list around to include "Shiver" and "Assassin".

it would be fitting because GHWT tried it on them first by announcing their list magically right when RB2 is coming out

anyways, I would want the Lostprophets, Paramore, and Rise Against tracks in there!!!

This would be awesome for the sole reason of me not having to buy World Tour. I just want some Ted Nugent!

Can't wait till Oct. 27th when Hendrix get bastardized by the overcharters at Neversoft.

This doesn't need to happen. Rock Band already has the better setlist >_>

And Mr. Crowley and Band on the Run.

100% Correct.

Who the hell puts an unplugged Nirvana song in a game like this as a lead off song? Nirvana is my favorite band and I'm not getting GH:WT even with the list.

They might not do that this time around though considering there are more instruments for the game now.

luckily you can't really overchart the drums on expert.

Holy crap! If Harmonix does this, they have the biggest balls, ever.
