Guitar Hero has been a brand name that has meant a lot to the genre of musically based video games. The franchise, for those who may not know, allows players to emulate being a rock guitarist by slinging a fake guitar around their necks and they matching notes scaling down an on-screen fret board.
While that sounds charming, what Guitar Hero managed to do was elevate the whole experience to a frenetic pace with difficulty levels that moved from manageable to insane finger exercises, but kept the entertainment value at a constant flow with great music. Then along came Rock Band, which took the concept a step further by adding not just the bass guitar, but drums and vocals as well. Guitar Hero III released to acclaim but Activision's development team was already hard at work on the next generation of GH – namely Guitar Hero World Tour, a title that took the band concept and added to it measurably.

Sometimes, gaming soundtracks can introduce players to bands and artists they've never heard of. This article is all about Matt's five favorites, thanks for gaming.
Accompanied by Heidi Klum, Mr T, Robin Williams, and Jerry (who's suddenly a chicken), Dan takes a look at his favourite video gaming adverts of all time.

But here I wanted to focus on celebrities who appeared in games that weren’t so obvious. Games that didn’t really have a celebrity focus yet a celebrity appeared in that seemed almost random.
Here are 10 that I enjoyed the most."
This lt fails for not having Burt F*cken Reynolds from Saints Row the Third
