Guitar Hero Greatest Hits is set to feature memorable songs from Guitar Hero games together in one setlist, comprised of all master recordings including, “Them Bones” by Alice in Chains, Queen’s “Killer Queen,” “Nothin’ But A Good Time” by Poison, Rage Against The Machine’s “Killing in the Name,” “I Wanna Rock” by Twisted Sister, Joan Jett and The Blackhearts’ “I Love Rock N Roll,” and Heart’s “Barracuda”. Even Dragonforce’s “Through the Fire and Flames" makes an appearance, which will be interesting to see played on drums.
