Unleash The Warriors

Everyone knows i'm a sucker for a good rhythm game, so it's not usually a big deal when i get excited over a new Guitar Hero game. This time, i'd like to believe otherwise though. Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock will hit shelves in September (just in time to compete wth Rock Band 3, i believe) and feature 90 songs from the biggest name's in rock and metal. With the ability to literally unleash your rockers inner monster you'll also be able to work through 'Quest Mode' which will run your rocker through an epic quest to help the 'Demigod of Rock' (voiced by Gene Simmons) defeat 'The Beast'. Warrior forms of characters will each feature a unique ability that changes the game (such as larger multipliers) and after the copyright issues Activision had with real musicians in Guitar Hero 5 and Band Hero, you can be sure all the characters in Warriors of Rock will be fictional. All previous DLC from Guitar Hero 5 and Band Hero will be compatible with Warriors of Rock and the development team has mentioned the possibility of Natal compatibility.
