It's Dave Mustaine, therefore it'll never happen.

Friendster ... holy cow I forgot about that.

As for Mustaine, they'd also need a special setting where you can make the character on the screen break into tears about being kicked out of Metallica and people making fun of you on the street for it.

I say Friendster because it was there way before myspace, just like GH.

They'd also need a button to change the lineup of the band for every song.

Well, if you get that button, there's plenty more bands that you could use it with... can you imagine a Spinal Tap Rock Band?

Do you really need the drummer, though?

Rockband needs to make JamBand. All songs are from what people consider "Jam Bands" with a soundbooth feature that lets you record, edit, and share. No more crappy Country, "impossible string of mashing buttons metal", and emo "nu-rock" alternative music.

Thanks in advance.

You know this might actually be alright. Megadeth has a lot more guitar hero-esque songs than most of the bands they released. Although not sure if kids would buy it in bulk. I got to meet Dave a few months ago at a Megadeth show. I was blown away, it was like meeting a metal Jesus H. Christ. To my surprise when i tell people i met him the resounding answer is "Who?" Something tells me the game wouldn't sell a lot of units with the younger demographic

ummm...this was a response to changing member line-ups often. green day has always been (as far as i know) the same 3 members...sometimes with the addition of a contract player or 2

I hear that if you beat the Green Day Rock Band, you can unlock songs from other, better bands.

Great idea. Some of those bands might be listenable if you could edit out all the boring noodling and bad singing.

Headline fail. Musically Megadeth is way more complicated than Green Day.

Of course unlike most farkers I don't play Rock Band because I'm in a real band where we play actual instruments and not plastic game controlers. So have fun with your clicking noises when you play unplugged, I'll take the real thing.

I've always hated Megadeth. When I was DJing back in 89 I hated them. Boring. Uninteresting. Flashy crap no substance guitar licks. Lyrics by a 5 year old. "Hello me, it's me again" I mean seriously? I think Peace Sells may be the only record that sounds halfway decent. O yeah, he's a whining, self-important, douche. That too.

2010-01-19 12:24:40 AM
I'll have to admit I don't get the joke. Are they seriously claiming Megadeth is simple and repetitive compared to the garbage riffs strewn through most rock band and guitar hero songs?
 
2010-01-19 12:37:55 AM
So you play three songs and then the game kicks you out of the band?

Just because you haul the band's equipment and go "check check... check one, check two" into the microphones, that doesn't make you part of the band.

Just sayin'. Don't mean to kill your dreams and all, but the band you slave for isn't going to make it. They suck, their covers suck, the bands they like suck, the brand of orange juice they drink sucks, and every single thing they stand for sucks more than your mom acting as the singularity point of the most powerful black hole that ever exists regardless of whether or not it exists in this universe or some parallel dimension yet unknown or to will be discovered using any form of technology that we or anyone else will come to understand.

But good luck working lifting speakers anyways. Remember to stretch, so you don't pull a muscle.

You lost, buttmunch. By a lot.

Get over it already! Grow up and accept the fact that you can't undo the past... what, 25, 30 years? You failed. Quit living in the past, better yourself, and maybe you can return to your former glory in the near future.

/wait a second, this isn't the Politics tab!

I have to agree, I don't understand the headline.Megadeth has a lot of really guitar intensive songs that would be awesome as a Guitar Hero game.

Unless someone drives a truck of money to his house and makes him sign a paper and thats all he has to do with it.

/Am I the only Megadeth fan disappointed he hasn't made a song called Saturday Night Palsy, considering he nearly killed his own career with it.

Who ARE you talking about? If you think popularity == quality in the music biz you should take a long gander at the sales of the many poptwats. Then go give a listen to some Hannah Montana, I'm sure she's outsold Dave 100x over.

Don't electric guitars just make clicking noises when unplugged?

i am done with all these games. Novel at first, but just meh now... oh another new game, with new songs... well yes the songs are not as good as the previous games... we have already used all the cool songs...

my disinterest has nothing to do with my love of guitar playing, the games are just boring to me.

I was going to respond, but I see the KO punch has already landed. I'm sorry if you can't have fun playing a game that almost every single person I've ever seen try it enjoys... "real" musicians (like me) or not.

Am I not supposed to play "Monopoly" now that I actually own property? I'm just trying to keep up with the cool kids.
