View larger./span /td/tr /table bFollow the Career of Metallica and Play as Your Own Upstart/bbr IGuitar Hero: Metallica/I is similar to IGuitar Hero World Tour/I in that you play a full suite of instruments. When the game starts, you're the new band on the block with aspirations of opening for Metallica. The game goes back and forth between performances by Metallica and performances of songs that influenced Metallica by your band. The band was motion captured so you'll recognize their unique motions on screen and style of playing. p As you progress in the game, you'll start to unlock bonus features such as videos of old Metallica performances, backstage photos, and "Metallifacts," which enables different trivia to show up while a song is playing, similar to VH1's Pop-Up Video. p bMetallica Recordings from Original Masters and More Via Download/bbr IGuitar Hero: Metallica/I features 49 songs in total, 28 Metallica songs, and 21 songs that are favorites of the band and have influenced them. The Metallica songs are sourced from original masters so you'll have the best audio quality available. p bGame Difficulty Goes from One All The Way Up to Eleven/bbr Metallica exhibit technical prowess while performing, and this game goes from Beginner all the way to Expert Plus difficulty. Hardcore gamers will not be disappointed. You'll have to play guitars, drums, and sing, and in the "Expert Plus" difficulty, you'll have to plug in a second bass pedal for double bass pedal drum work. p bReal-Life Venues/bbr As you go on tour, you'll be playing venues small and large, and you might recognize some that you've been to. Famous venues that played a part in Metallica's career such as The Stone and the Hammersmith Odeon are included in the game and have been duplicated with great detail. p bGrab Your Friends and Play Together/bbr Multiplayer is part of what made Guitar Hero such a hit and it is no different here. Gather your friends and family, and jam Metallica tunes together. The game also features Metallica-specific power ups for competitive multiplayer. For example, "Fade to Black" will black out your opponent's notes, and "Trapped Under Ice" will freeze their whammy bar. p bCreate Your Own Music/bbr Those familiar with IGuitar Hero World Tour/I will welcome back the Music Studio, where you can create new music and then upload and share them through the GHTunes service. The Music Studio in IGuitar Hero: Metallica/I gives you Metallica specific tones such as Hetfields' ESP Truckster guitar, as well as Metallica drum sounds. p table align="center" cellpadding="10"trtd colspan="4" align="center" biGuitar Hero: Metallica/i Track List/bbr/td/tr tr td ul liAll Nightmare Long liBattery liCreeping Death liDisposable Heroes liDyers Eve liEnter Sandman liFade To Black /ul /td td ul liFight Fire With Fire liFor Whom The Bell Tolls liFrantic liFuel liHit The Lights liKing Nothing liMaster of Puppets /ul /td td ul liMercyful Fate (Medley) liNo Leaf Clover liNothing Else Matters liOne liOrion liSad But True liSeek And Destroy /ul /td td ul liThe Memory Remains liThe Shortest Straw liThe Thing That Should Not Be liThe Unforgiven liWelcome Home (Sanitarium) liWherever I May Roam liWhiplash /ul /td /tr /table br clear="all"
