Product Description
Guitar Hero 2 X360

Amazon.com Product Description
RedOctane's follow-up to the critically acclaimed rhythm game, Guitar Hero II comes to Xbox 360 and features a huge track list, more venues and new play modes than in the original game, and a goal to rock longer and harder than its predecessor. In this new release RedOctane has once again teamed up with veteran music game developer Harmonix for the sequel, and is using famed recording studio WaveGroup for its music production, who also recorded the covers for the licensed tracks in the original Guitar Hero.

The Next Chapter in the Guitar Hero Experience
Rock the rhythm, lead, and bass guitar tracks in the follow-up sequel to Guitar Hero, now on Xbox 360. Form your guitar duo and shred riffs cooperatively or go head-to-head in all new multiplayer modes. With over 70 tracks to rock out to, you'll go from Guitar Hero to Guitar god in one press of a fret button. Choose from multiple rock characters and jam at concert venues that grow in size as your rock career progresses. You'll start your rock career playing small clubs and bars, but if you play well you'll work your way up to stadiums and arenas.

5 out of 5 stars Hours of fun!!   September 1, 2008
D. Hensley (Mesa, Az)
3 out of 3 found this review helpful

I bought Guitar Hero 2 originally for Playstation 2 when it first came out and then it out later for Xbox 360 so I bought this game also because it had better graphics and some extra songs.This game is really fun I can play it for hours and not get bored of it.I play it on medium because I find it difficult to press the orange button on hard mode.This game has a lot of great songs,but not all of the songs are good,some of the cover songs are not done very well like "Killing In The Name","Them Bones",and "Institutionalized". Besides the covered songs the rest of the game is fun and I think this game has better songs than Guitar Hero 3. This game has a unlockable songs,costumes,and guitars.My guitar that came with X-plorer guitar which is my favorite guitar,I own the Les Paul guitar and its not as comfortable.I do think that these games should have more newer bands like Chevelle,Three Days Grace,Breaking Benjamin,and Bullet For My Valentine.

My favorite songs are "Freebird","Crazy On You","Them Bones"and "Laid To Rest".

Pros: 70 songs,unlockable costumes,comfortable guitar,hours of fun,difficult on hard and expert modes,improved graphics

Cons: should of got newer bands,covered songs

Peter Gavin (Illinois)
I have had this game for several years and it still retains its playability. I wish they would come out with more songs for it though; although I realize that with GH3 out, they stopped doing that.


5 out of 5 stars Love it.   December 6, 2008
Amy Lemieux (USA)
Thank you for the quick shipment. I found the used game to be in new condition. I love the game. I give you 5 stars.


5 out of 5 stars Great Family Game!!   February 16, 2009
CarolLuvsAGoodBook (Mount laurel, NJ United States)
This game is so much fun. My kids begged me for this game. Even my husband and I have played it. It can be frustrating when you first get started. Once you coordinated enough it's hard to put down. I find myself saying just one more song, just one more but unable to stop playing. This is a good family time game.


5 out of 5 stars My daughter loves this game   May 14, 2009
C. Steinbrecher (Highlands Ranch, CO)
My daughter is in 7th grade and really loves this "old school" music. She really likes this game!
