Gibson's Guitar Hero (part II)

Well, it's official: Gibson's Guitar Hero PS2 interactive game will hit stores November 8, 2005. Haha - man it makes me laugh. I was wondering how exactly the game would work - like how to keep score and such. Well here's what I found:

Guitar Hero, which will come packaged with a special guitar-shaped controller, challenges wannabe rock stars to thrash to some of rock's most classic tunes. Like in dancing rhythm games, a sequencer will show gamers which frets to play and when to strum. The better the score, the more the cyber-crowd will rock out and the closer gamers will come to being a legend.

lol... the game also has a cool list of tunes by some very big bands - these tunes are, of course, not covers but have been customed for the game itself. A partial list of the in-game songs include (via):

-- Red Hot Chili Peppers - Higher Ground
-- Boston - More Than a Feeling
-- Megadeth - Symphony of Destruction
-- The Donnas - Take it Off
