T3: GHWT Songs I’d Like in RB2

Guitar Hero World Tour has been out for more than a week now. Reception has been mediocre, with the consensus being that its good but not as good as Rock Band. Which is fine, since I don’t plan on owning two sets of plastic instruments and I’ve already invested so much in Rock Band.

Have you seen those ads? Pretty fucked up. There’s the one with Kobe, A-Rod, Tony Hawk and Michael Phelps, and then the other one with Heidi Klum. But that song isn’t in the game, and even though they have the instruments, it doesn’t look like they’re playing the game. I just don’t get it.

But GHWT does have a fairly strong track list. There are several songs that I wish would make their way over as Rock Band DLC. So I’ll list them, since I know no one else will be doing a T3, and I can probably crack this out before I go to bed. I’m not including Guitar Hero DLC, because then I would need to constantly revise this list. But if I was to pick the best DLC song right now, it would hands down be “Jessie’s Girl.”

Instead of pictures, I’ll just link videos of the songs in GHWT.

10. “Weapon of Choice” – Black Rebel Motorcycle Club
Guitar. A catchy little number that I think Harmonix could make pretty damn fun.

9. “Assassin” – Muse
Band. Rock Band needs more Muse. This seems as good a choice as any other.

8. “Crazy Train” – Ozzy Osbourne
Guitar. This would be awesome. Like totally awesome.

7. “Beat It” – Michael Jackson
Drums and guitar. Fun for everyone. Well maybe not drums. I’m not quite sure about that.

6. “Hotel California” – Eagles
Guitar. I know everyone’s tired of this song at this point, but it should have been in one of these games by now. I’d just like to play it once. Especially the solo.

5. “Love Me Two Times” – The Doors
Drums. The Doors would probably be pretty fun to play.

4. “Rebel Yell” – Billy Idol
Band. “White Wedding” is a good second choice, but this is the song we wanted.

3. “Purple Haze” – Jimi Hendrix
Guitar. Yeah. Guitar Hero owns Jimi, so don’t expect this any time soon. He’s even a character in the game.

2. “Hot for Teacher” – Van Halen
I hate these developer guys. Oh my god. Nothing about this song would not be fun. That’s the reason they advertised it first, that’s the reason they foolishly made it the hardest song in GHWT.

1. “Band on the Run” – Wings
Guitar. It was a tough call, and “Hot for Teacher” would probably be more fun, but how incredible would it be to get to play this song?

So what did I learn from this list? Rock Band needs more classic rock. Who knew?
