Rock Band 2 Will Feature Judas Priest “Painkiller”
Posted by: catholicgamenerd in Catholic Game Nerd Review, PS3 Games, Uncategorized, XB 360 Games, catholic video game reviews, tags: best rhythm game, guitar hero world tour, judas priest, next gen consoles, painkiller, rock band 2After seeing the features of Rock Band 2 and Guitar Hero: World Tour, I am tempted to buy another new console and the latest incarnation of one of these rhythm games. The fact that Rock Band 2 has Judas Priest is a great selling point, but the fact that it has Painkiller as an included track is just awesome! Have you heard that song? Rob Halford has AMAZING vocal ability. Whether you are a fan of Judas Priest or not, you must admit he has great talent. What a range!
The rest of the tracks for Rock Band 2 look good. I haven't seen the track list for Guitar Hero World Tour yet. Let's see what we have here. Mostly rumors. I'll wait.
What I'm liking so far about Guitar Hero IV is the peripherals first. The drum set looks amazing, and I have been told from E3 that it is pressure sensitive, opening all sorts of windows for new drum hits and sounds. Cymbals have been raised and look almost like flaps. As a child of the 80's, this looks like a synth drum set I've seen in countless bands. Time will tell how durable the equipment is, but I would assume it will hold up.
GH4 will also give players the ability to make their own music, upload it to the network, and share it with their friends online. Mixing boards allow them to move stuff around, similar to Audacity. These features look pretty good. I now need to see track lists. The winner will be the one with the best Judas Priest and Led Zeppelin offerings.

I highly doubt we’ll ever see Led Zeppelin songs in any music/rhythm game anytime soon; the royalties are gargantuan! How much did Chrysler have to pay to use their music in their commericals again?…
I think NeoGAF had a post about a rumored GHIV setlist; Neversoft (?) already said GHIV will have more than 100 songs, which means it will RB2 will have to sell itself based on the quality, not quantity, of the songlist. Either way it’s a tough call right now; I’ll wait till more info is released before I make my decision. Plus, with RB1 at the seminary already, and with Tales of Vesperia quickly approaching it’s impending U.S. release, I’m sure I’ll find something to play within the coming months regardless of the GH/RB situation.
