Guitar Hero III - 80s edition!
First Guitar Hero III tracks revealed, Les Paul guitar licensed - Joystiq
Remember when we decreed yesterday big hair day at Joystiq, to commemorate the announcement of seven new tracks for Guitar Hero Encore: Rocks the 80s? Lucky for us, we didn’t shower and Activision has rewarded our sloth, and our big hair, with some new details regarding the upcoming Guitar Hero game … the one hitting all new-gen systems (even Wii) and the PS2, being developed by Neversoft. So, what’s the news?
Song titles at the link.
But, more amazingly - GUITAR HERO FOR THE Wii! Woot!

Very exciting. I like the tracklist so far. I finally broke down and got the 360 version when it came out and have loved every minute of it! Good to know the new one will be out on every system.

Oh my. Paint It Black?????? Good lineup so far. I just wish Metallica would somehow end up on this game. Or Prince.
