PX 360 writes: "Once again it's time to rock out with the second Guitar Hero title in the matter of five months for the Xbox 360. In Guitar Hero: Metallica, players are eligible to play through close to 30 Metallica songs and 20 or so other songs too boot. If there were one legendary band deserving of star treatment with their very own Guitar Hero title, it would have to be Metallica. In comparison to the last "spin-off" or "star-driven" Guitar Hero title, Guitar Hero: Metallica is head and toes above water when matched against Guitar Hero: Aerosmith – an obvious cash-in if there ever was one – and Guitar Hero: Rock the '80's. The track listing in Guitar Hero: Metallica is one of the best entries so far – if you like Metallica that is. Offering up among the greatest Metallica hits known to mankind, metal fans will be peeing in their pants in joy when they get their first chance to shred to their favorite Metallica tracks."

In many ways video games and heavy metal go hand in hand, at least when their digits aren’t occupied with a multiplayer match and/or mind-melting guitar solo. A huge number of games revel in the savagery metal is known for, letting you eviscerate armies of enemies just as soundly as fierce riffs eviscerate mortal souls. Games like Gears of War, Manhunt, Dead Space, and Postal are all examples of carnage, violence, and destruction, so they're totally metal, right?
Brutal Legend soundtrack it's epic, probably one of the best ever. Shadows of the Damned it's awesome, so underrated, sadly.
Bayonetta and Twisted Metal are classics, i still need to play Splatterhouse.
The rumors are swirling, so The Geek Culture has a few suggestions on how Activision can bring back Guitar Hero right.
Ubisoft announced recently that it will be releasing a new guitar-based video game called Rocksmith. Unlike Guitar Hero and Rockband, this game will allow gamers to actually learn how to play the guitar rather than just pressing a set of colored buttons.
So is Rocksmith the guitar game aspiring musicians have been truly looking for?
