Activision will be paying homage to a classic rock era with Guitar Hero: Rocks the 80s, available exclusively on the PlayStation 2. Fans will once again be able to whip out their Gibson-shaped SG guitar controllers and shred to their favourite rock tracks, as the critically acclaimed franchise is scheduled to go on another highly-anticipated world tour this Winter.
Guitar Hero: Rocks the 80s will feature visually impressive retro rock venues and hipster characters, unlockable guitars, intense game play modes, and most importantly 30 new songs to experience the ultimate rock star fantasy. The initial list of finger-melting tracks includes:
- * I Wanna Rock (Twisted Sister)
* I Ran (Flock of Seagulls)
* Round and Round (as made famous by Ratt)
* I Want Candy (as made famous by Bow Wow Wow)
* Metal Health (as made famous by Quiet Riot)
