wow…Kyuss…sweet choice….

JP | 1/26/2009, 6:02 pm EST

This looks like it’s going to be real fun to play. The description of the game sounds exactly the same as the Aerosmith’s Guitar Hero Game. Which is very cool format for fans of the band. Also, a great way to introduce the band to people who playing the game because they are a fan of the Guitar Hero series.

elmer fudd | 1/26/2009, 7:45 pm EST

why the hell include the Foo Fighters? they suck major dick!

your mom plays guitar hero | 1/26/2009, 10:52 pm EST

its alright, the setlist could be better….but ill still buy it =)

Mr. Poupon | 1/26/2009, 11:42 pm EST

Foo Fighters are AWESOME!

Kirk | 1/27/2009, 8:36 am EST

Play real instruments.

I feel good | 1/27/2009, 9:55 am EST

What??! There’s no Captain and Tennille tracks?! This is a definite NO BUY for me!

RK | 1/27/2009, 10:10 am EST

I cannot even begin to tell you how happy it makes me to see a Kyuss cut on the setlist. “Sky Valley” is the greatest album no one has ever heard.

BB | 1/27/2009, 11:23 am EST

The Fearless are Revoluion!

CS | 1/27/2009, 3:36 pm EST

Kirk: Play with your asshole- you might like it.

Its pretty cool & unexpected Kyuss got on the game. The addition of “Stone Cold Crazy” is pretty kickass too

darthell | 1/28/2009, 11:50 am EST

It’s a video game !!!
I hate those guys that always say … “Play a real guitar” nobody said it’s a real guitar MF!!!!

Kirk | 1/29/2009, 5:05 am EST

Use that time to learn to play real instruments, it’s actually more fun and usefull. You might get something out of it.

demonic | 1/29/2009, 10:25 am EST

good thing they are makin a metallica GH, cuz aerosmith sucks so much

mitalca35 | 1/29/2009, 11:25 am EST

this is going to be interesting. metallica, who is number one(!!!) joined by several great bands who are duking it out for number 2 (no offense to queen or skynyrd, guys). This will be catastrophically huge, that’s all I have to say.

Sellout | 1/29/2009, 6:22 pm EST

Just when you think they can’t sellout even more Metallica just comes back

suck it | 1/31/2009, 1:51 pm EST

Impressive song list, if you dont like it go bitch about something else. The game is going to be a blast.

Iceman | 2/3/2009, 12:46 am EST

Hey sellout… keep hating cuz all your doing is feeding fuel to the fire baby! And your right, Metallica did sell out, SELLOUT every arena they played this year!! Sucka.
\m/METALLICA\m/

BEAST | 2/5/2009, 9:39 am EST

This will be one of the best games added onto the Guitar Hero line of games by far.

Shadow | 2/13/2009, 1:41 pm EST

HALE METALLICA!!!!!
MASTERS OF METAL!!!!!
GODS OF ROCK!!!!!

Heather | 2/14/2009, 9:46 pm EST

I wish they would have added “whiskey in the jar” it is a classic. maybe it will be on another GH series.

jacob | 2/15/2009, 12:25 am EST

fuck off real instruments r for old ppl

El Duderino | 2/17/2009, 5:04 pm EST

Kyuss is a solid choice

Slash | 2/18/2009, 3:09 pm EST

Im with Kirk. You should learn to play real instruments. NOthin can be better than that. Maybe be you guys should try it and start something that can help ya.

Slash | 2/18/2009, 3:18 pm EST

Im goin to say it again, PLAY REAL INSTRUMENTS, YOU ASSHOLES.

Anonymous | 2/18/2009, 7:21 pm EST

come on i want to play greenday in guitar hero maybe next time =(

HappyMcGeee | 2/19/2009, 2:25 pm EST

Ummmm…I do play guitar, and have also enjoyed Guitar Hero since it was released. It is only a video game, after all. On another note, do any other guitar players have as hard of a time with this game as I do??? I’m always wanting to strum with the song, not necessarily the notes on screen. Just wondering….

Big D | 2/19/2009, 4:54 pm EST

Happy McGeee,

As you get better at the game and move up to Hard and Expert levels, I think you will find that you won’t have that problem as much.

I wonder why the guitar players that are giving people crap for not playing a real instrument are even reading this article, let alone COMMENTING on it. Go play your freaking guitar and stop reading stories about Guitar Hero! You will get even better than you already are! We can’t all be as good as you superstars, so some of us have to play Guitar Hero and Rock Band.

METALLICA RULEZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ | 2/19/2009, 5:18 pm EST

where the fuck is RIDE THE LIGHTNING

Amberita | 2/19/2009, 11:16 pm EST

Some of us can play guitar and play guitar hero- they are not the same- guitar hero is a GAME! it involves pushing buttons in sequence- not making music, but still fun

Megadeth | 2/20/2009, 12:33 am EST

Megadeth should be the next band to get the GH treatment!!!!!

This will be fun in the meantime, setlist is awesome, sure some fav songs are missing but thats to be expected.

Tim | 2/20/2009, 12:41 am EST

Green Day….. why cant they just put a few of their songs on the game

C | 2/20/2009, 9:09 am EST

Agree where is Ride the Lightning
No new album stuff either

Hanz | 2/20/2009, 10:30 am EST

Where is the 4 horsmen, metal militia and PHANTOM LORD?!?! Little love for ride the lighting…Bad choices for kill em all..

Why??? | 2/20/2009, 10:35 am EST

No excuses for ALice? Cmon it’s an okay song but why not put a metal aic song in there…No excuses is off their E.p Jof i believe and that is an awesome cd but it’s the light side of Aic…Couldn’t have something off dirt or facelift could we??? It ain’t like that, bleed the freak, dirt, down in a hole….

JS | 2/20/2009, 12:06 pm EST

It is a game and it is supposed to be fun. Maybe a bunch of people will go out and learn to play instuments and get more involved with real music.

I am not into instuments which is why I go buys CD’s and games like Guitar Hero. I enjoy pounding beers and playing the game, and or listening to the music.

I would like to see RUSH on the game at some point along with some more Van Halen.

Harry | 2/23/2009, 2:42 pm EST

Where are Avenged Sevenfold? What a truly awesome game that would be, plus more new album stuff, Suicide and Redemption?

Happy McGee | 2/25/2009, 1:32 pm EST

Hey Big D…I’m not giving ANYONE crap. I love these games, but my real problem is the “Guitar Players” who rank on people for playing this and not a real instrument. I do both, and sometimes ya just want to pound some buttons instead of strings!

Either way, I’ve been a Metallica fan since 1985, and cannot wait for this game to come out! It is about freaking time!!!!

dbgboi | 2/26/2009, 6:06 pm EST

no ride the lighting, …and justice for all, great songs that didn’t make the cut

JWW | 2/27/2009, 10:21 am EST

Man i really looking foward to some Whiskey In A Jar. But my dream has been shattered.

Well that doesn’t really matter I can’t wait to get my hands on this game to rock out to some Metallica as I do every ride home from work.

METALLICA RRRRUUUUUULLLLLLLEEEEEZZZZ. #1 Metal Band Ever!!!!!!

Metallica's #1 | 3/1/2009, 1:26 am EST

If you have Rockband then you could still play Ride the Lighting, …And Justice For All.

DC | 3/9/2009, 11:13 am EST

its a cool setlist and all but it need the 4 horsemen and ride the lightning

HercMech | 3/10/2009, 4:21 pm EST

Guys!!! Buy Rock Band if you want “justice” and Ride The Lightning so freakin’ bad?!?!!

WTF?!?!?!? | 3/13/2009, 8:56 pm EST

OK. Here are some KEY Metallica songs they forgot *cough*RETARDS*cough*… Excuse me.

The Four Horsemen
Ride the Lightning
Blackend
And Justice for all

WHAT THE HECK ARE THEY STUPID?!?!?! THOSE ARE LIKE SOME OF THE BEST SONGS EVER!!! RETARDS!!

Plus… In the GH:WT preview it Said:
“Ride the Lightning 2009″

Yet Ride the Lightning isn’t on there? STUPID!

Ryan | 3/14/2009, 1:57 pm EST

This games gonna be kickass. I still think it needs some avenged sevenfold like “bat country”

kevin | 3/16/2009, 12:44 pm EST

they forgot alot of great songs by the,all of their songs are great,but the didnt include motorbreath
unforgiven 2 and 3
cyanide
to live is to die
struggle within
dont tread one me
and alot more,they should have a guitar hero with every song off from all 11 albums they made.that would be awsome,

Strum this | 3/19/2009, 2:41 pm EST

I love how all the “real” guitarists have nothing better to do than to pick their ass and post comments on these sites. We are well aware that it is a game and a plastic instrument, we didn’t say it was going to make us real guitarists. I play Tiger Woods golf all the time, but I don’t expect my real game to improve because of that. Like someone else mentioned, go play your real guitars and let us gamers enjoy our fret buttons and have fun doing so. GH Metallica is gonna rock!!!

Jackii Damage | 3/20/2009, 4:43 pm EST

This looks good, almost as fun as that time my band jammed Frantic and Whiskey In The Jar on-stage (H) and all you guitarists who think Guitar Hero/Rock Band is for folk who can’t play an instrument, GET YER HEAD OUT YER ARSE!!!! I play PROPER Guitar/Bass/Drums yet i find playing Guitar Hero and Rock Band extremely fun, especially before playing a gig. And anyway, Guitar Hero and Rock Band we’re made to inspire people to get more involved with music, and IF the player wanted to, give them an extra push towards considering playing guitar, but more importantly for drunken laughs on the weekends.

wtf | 3/21/2009, 3:19 pm EST

stop whinging about …and justice for all and ride the lightnin not being on there, what bout creeping death?! it easily tops both of them so what are you worrying about?!

Psyko | 3/21/2009, 10:14 pm EST

Suicidal Tendencies!

Fantastic! +2000pp

jesse | 3/21/2009, 10:34 pm EST

i think they should put some cowboy from hell by pantera that would kick arse and also what no dueling guitars wtf oh well i got mine reserved

Eyes of the Insane | 3/27/2009, 5:17 pm EST

Slayer!??? Well i guess ill rent it so i can play War Ensemble. Fucken eh! More Slayer! Hell Yeah! not a metallica fan, but i do love Slayer. Tallica too soft and slow for my likes.

Hangar 18 | 3/27/2009, 5:21 pm EST

it makes me laugh that they put every hit they had, EXCEPT for the ones co written by Megadeth’s DAVE MUSTAINE. 4 Horsemen not on there, No remorse, Phantom Lord, Call of Ktulu, Ride The Lightning, Leper Messiah, all are co written by Mustaine. Its funny metallica never wanted them put on. i guess they dont Dave gett royalties from this either. hahahaha

RS1976 | 4/1/2009, 10:34 am EST

hey ya’ll…. Gripes all you want… but SAMHAIN was included!!!!!!!!

LL | 4/2/2009, 3:52 pm EST

No Whiskey in a Jar !! Come on.

hotrod | 4/2/2009, 8:29 pm EST

hell, they couldn’t possibly put enough Metallica songs on there to make everyone happy. I’m sure there will be add on’s that you can purchase in the future from the Playstation Store. There are for every other one. Coulda been more Load and Reload songs… Can’t fit em all on though. I’m just happy they made one. Hopefully it is better than Aerosmith.. That song list SUCKED..

CHRIS?! | 4/2/2009, 11:45 pm EST

WHAT NO HARVESTER OF SORROW!?! still good list tho

Brandi | 4/3/2009, 12:38 pm EST

Just so you know, Justice for All, Ride the Lightning and Blackened are available for download. We have them on our Rock Band Game.

cheese | 4/15/2009, 1:33 pm EST

gh metallica rulez

THE GREATEST GUITAR HERO | 5/12/2009, 4:12 pm EST

This game is awesome but no ride the lightning or call of ktulu or four horseman or phantom lord or motorbreath or metal militia or the day that never comes or cyanide or escape or holier than thou or of wolf and man or the struggle within or dont tread on me or Damage inc. or the memory remains or all within my hands or st. anger or some kind of monster. oh well still gonna be a good game. LONG LIVE METALLICA!!!!!!!!!!!! and guitar hero.

THE GREATEST GUITAR HERO | 5/12/2009, 4:14 pm EST

Welcome to where time stands still
no one leaves and no one will
Moon is full, never seems to change
just labeled mentally deranged
Dream the same thing every night
I see our freedom in my sight
No locked doors, No windows barred
No things to make my brain seem scarred

Sleep my friend and you will see
that dream is my reality
They keep me locked up in this cage
can’t they see it’s why my brain says Rage

Sanitarium, leave me be
Sanitarium, just leave me alone

Build my fear of what’s out there
and cannot breathe the open air
Whisper things into my brain
assuring me that I’m insane
They think our heads are in their hands
but violent use brings violent plans
Keep him tied, it makes him well
he’s getting better, can’t you tell?

No more can they keep us in
Listen, damn it, we will win
They see it right, they see it well
but they think this saves us from our hell

Sanitarium, leave me be
Sanitarium, just leave me alone
Sanitarium, just leave me alone

Fear of living on
natives getting restless now
Mutiny in the air
got some death to do
Mirror stares back hard
Kill, it’s such a friendly word
seems the only way
for reaching out again.

THE GREATEST GUITAR HERO | 5/12/2009, 4:16 pm EST

• Master Of Puppets

(Hetfield/Ulrich/Ha mmett/Burton)

End of passion play, crumbling away
I’m your source of self-destruction
Veins that pump with fear, sucking darkest clear
Leading on your death’s construction

Taste me, you will see
More is all you need
You’re dedicated to
How I’m killing you

Come crawling faster
Obey your master
Your life burns faster
Obey your master
Master

Master of puppets, I’m pulling your strings
Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me, you can’t see a thing
Just call my name, ’cause I’ll hear you scream
Master
Master
Just call my name, ’cause I’ll hear you scream
Master
Master

Need lework the way, never you betray
Life of death becoming clearer
Pain monopoly, ritual misery
Chop your breakfast on a mirror

Taste me you will see
More is all you need
You’re dedicated to
How I’m killing you

Come crawling faster
Obey your master
Your life burns faster
Obey your master
Master

Master of puppets, I’m pulling your strings
Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me, you can’t see a thing
Just call my name, ’cause I’ll hear you scream
Master
Master
Just call my name, ’cause I’ll hear you scream
Master
Master

Mast er, master
Where’s the dreams that I’ve been after?
Master, master
You promised only lies
Laughter, laughter
All I hear and see is laughter
Laughter, laughter
Laughing at my cries
Fix me

Hell is worth all that, natural habitat
Just a rhyme without a reason
Never-ending maze, drift on numbered days
Now your life is out of season

I will occupy
I will help you die
I will run through you
Now I rule you, too

Come crawling faster
Obey your master
Your life burns faster
Obey your master
Master

Master of puppets, I’m pulling your strings
Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me, you can’t see a thing
Just call my name, ’cause I’ll hear you scream
Master
Master
Just call my name, ’cause I’ll hear you scream
Master
Master

slipknot | 6/13/2009, 3:45 pm EST
