E3 09: Here's a look at Guitar Hero: Van Halen

[graphicgiraffe]

Yeah this was never popular in the UK.

[Codeman63]

I think they should put sammy in also

[EVHrocks1]

How bout you people stop people being retards and listen. Michael LIKES chickenfoot and he said he'd rather do the chickenfoot tour than EVER doing any van halen tour. it's not like mike is sad that he's not in van halen. also he was on tour while van halen prepping for the 07 tour. Wolfie is also incredibly talented, it also kinda helps when your original bassist isnt available, your kid who plays bass knows ALL the songs. and attacking his weight? thats just low.

[oiyabastard]

 rock is NOT a game

[rekrings]

wow is Eddie and Alex such douce bags that they left out Micheal and put in one of there no talent offspring

[yappertrap]

they took mikey out...fuk u ed. i don't care how good you are . that is total bullshit i will never buy that game.ps your kids a fat ass

[RedRocker9957]

it sounds like somebody is missing all the notes. Not totally surprising tho.

[jacksonbaker94]

They did the whole replace a bassist deal with Metallica's guitar hero. Even though Cliff is dead, I think that would have been cool to put him in there.

[derekRTK]

whats w/wolf wearin the dice shirt eddie wore on the 1984 tour.

[hugagab]

They should make Guitar Hero Disturbed

[11TILEN11]

Its great game, but with real guitar is more fun xD. Have Fun guys :P

[wavular]

That is just retarded to have wolfgang on the classic van halen songs-Bit of a rip-off if you ask me-And did anyone tell them-mike anthony was the backing vocals behind most of van halens stuff to begin with?

[GuitarHeroPhenomSux]

This game is great. How come nobody plays it?

[jac7232008]

It's like any money making franchise you start with this then they'll make the sequal with Sammy. They know what there doing

[Xnothinbetter2dewX]

its a good game......would be great if it had some Hagar songs.

[Eddacus313]

It sucks that this doesn't have michael anthony or sammy hagar. they have both been in van halen for a very long time so

it would make more sense than putting on wolfgang who has been in vh for olny couple of years.

[torreypines]

dude i totally agree!!

EVH is the reason i picked up a guitar,

and it pisses me off that they stuck wih only dave,

and put lil wolfy,

who sucks at bass!!!

[TheDoctorStrangelove]

Have you ever seen Wolf in concert?

[Thrashfan21]

@Eddacus313 Neither of them are in the band or were in the band though when the game was made. That's like saying Brett Favre should still be on the Packers in Madden.

[DOCSFC]

i got this game mailed to me for free when i bought gh5, good thing i didn't buy this game.. fucking thing sucks

[iShutup2]

is some1 playing dj hero in the back?

[steven4747]

wird es für van halen auch ein gitarren-pack geben wie bei all den vorgängern auch? finde dazu nichts im internet

[itsonelouder1]

We need a guitar hero Jim Hendrix Experience, Led Zeppelin, AC/DC with Bon and The Cult. Then I will be happy! I'm pleased with VH though and will be getting it.

[grantasas]

They need a Guitar Hero: AC/DC

[grantasas]

Its only a track pack though.

[BenDaMan85]

True, but still.

[hineyguitar]

Wot about a guitar hero, Culture Club? A faggot band for a faggot game!

[rpals9]

by far the best band they could have ever made a game for

[gooooproue]

Michael Anthony should be apart of this game, but was left out. THAT'S NOT RIGHT!!!

[A7Xwarrior462]

i think they should make a guitar hero pantera

[knarakux2]

they should make a guitar hero Led Zeppelin

[kip4tok]

@knarakux2

Well, that would be so awesome, but I don't think we can expect lz gh.

[nutdog21]

@knarakux2 I wonder why they didnt put any of his songs in guitar hero. They put lots of silly other bands in though

[sableantelope77]

@knarakux2 and guitar hero zz top

[schrmn8r]

@knarakux2 dude that would be the bomb

[gh123freak]

@knarakux2 Would be good but not possible since Leg Zeppelin doesn't let people use their music. It happens but not all the time that they will allow it. Even for Guitar Hero, Jimmy Paige is against the game so there is no chance that there will be a game where you can play Led Zeppelin songs.

[ShOrtieMAC919]

they gotta make a guitar hero iron maiden

[Starsky328]

i'm with you there

[Bowlinking]

the last signature solo is Cathedral

[PhoenixFirebreath]

There are 3 signature Eddie Van Halen solo's. Spanish Fly, Eruption, but what was the other?

[wiiare2Xtreme]

what is the name of the last song in the video ???

[jackful6]

They need to make a Guitar Hero KISS.

[italiandude719]

i dont think had enough popular songs for the public to actually admire. me myself only know two of their songs. As popular as they were, i dont think they were popular enough

[ShOrtieMAC919]

not even

[rickt16]

watch rickt16

[Vantage94]

does anybody know if guitar hero van halen comes with a special guitar for this game? I mean... they did it for aerosmith and metallica, so they should make the frankenstrat for this game or something... anybody knows if it comes with?

[AWOL216]

what was the metallica guitar???

[Vantage94]

Just like the one for guitar hero 4 world tour, but with a metallica graphic and skulls n stuff on it, instead of the sunburst on the normal guitar controller

[AWOL216]

where do u get it?

[jovon336]

Guitar Hero: King of Pop!!!

COMING 2010!!

[Darthxander91]

the right thing to do was put wolfie with the new look of van halen..& the classic look has Michael in it..just sayin..give the man his respect.

[weezerfan22]

eh the game is well put together i guess... graphics look good. gameplay is alright.. but tht does make me mad about those little poser kids tht think they know everything just from guitar hero.. sure i have heard some great songs thnx to gh but most of music comes from the radio or fuse and stuff... metal!!!!!!!

[guitarlord247]

ive always been a BIG van halen fan so i was glad that this game came out,but im kinda not because therell be an assload of kids that think they know everything about van halen just because they played the guitar hero game,those kids are a bunch of fuckin guitar hero,poser,dicks...

[12stonesrawesome]

van halen is a pretty clean band right

[guitarlord247]

what,like bad words/sexual content?yeah,they dont cuss or use profanity,but theres one or two songs with sexually suggestive lyrics...but they disguise it as if they were talking about a car.

[ZabuzaMomochi567]

no man, green day in a guitar hero, hell no id rather have billy talent even tho im not a fan

[shnikesmate]

i have this game and its beast!

[recordedversion]

I LOVE GUITAR HERO VAN HALEN!!!

Funny thing is the game sounds and looks better than the REAL VAN HALEN

[TheJuggeranutBitch]

Fuck you, there's no replacement for Van Halen, especially in a video game.

[Itchyweed]

theyv never had green day in guitar hero.

[ledzep000001]

Ain't THAT the truth. Michael Anthony never existed and had nothing to do with the reason VH was unreal good. (What a fucking joke is right) They'll kick Alex out and replace him with Valerie Bertinelli next or Eddie's dog- WTF???!! Mike never burned you like David did Ed, you Fuckin' Dummy!!!!

[slash65]

So they're gonna put Wolfie in the game instead of Michael... That is fucking lame.

[michaelhedges1888]

yea. i mean MA wasnt the greatest bassist ever but his backing vocals were great. he was a key member of the band during their prime and he deserves to be there. honestly, id have had both singers in it too as they both had hits and some of sammys songs should be there too. eddie is a legendary guitarist and hes my hero, but theres no denying he can be just as much of a pain in the ass as anyone.

[sableantelope77]

@slash65 and what about sammy hagar?

[charliedrummer7]

@sableantelope77 vh were crap and cheesy with sammy hagar, forget him! DLR baby !

[fatguyinchair3]

@slash65 They didn't put Michael or Sammy in the game cause they didn't want to be in the game. Sammy said he and Michael didn't want to be part of it. But it still sucks

[Ozzmaster2112]

@slash65

Their was a feud between the band and Micheal. So they couldn't put him in the game.

[h1n1viruz]

i shall download this one tooo... getting it now!!! Free....

[MrGuitarperson2727]

i wish this game had the GH5 graphics, but its still a good game nonetheless.

[riceybfc2]

i dont get why theres so much guitar heros coming out at once, you buy one and theres a new one out srteight away

[liewkw]

wolfgang is eddie's son.

but seriously, put michael anthony in please.

[peel432]

yeah.

but anthony was with roth from before 96. This game is supposed to be their tour a few years ago (you can tell by the stage setup) and in that tour it was wolfgang playing bass.

it would be much cooler if there was both though.

[hipepoes124]

when is this game coming out?

[pwnage0fn00bs]

is wolfgang their brother? or did he like have his name changed or something

[trhazuka92]

wolfgang is either eddy's or alex's son

[pwnage0fn00bs]

ohhh yea, now i remember, im pretty sure he's eddie's son but not 100% sure

[vandanyhalen]

it was about time it come this game...

this game will the greates of all guitar hero!!

I'm David Lee Roth fan but I think they should include Sammy Hagar as well, and some of their great songs like "dreams" and "why can this be love". and also include Michael Anthony, not wolfgang

[gibsonjeb08]

is Dualshock 2 working in this game???? for ps2

[k0andpl0x]

sammy hagar was not that good at singing. i saw vh live at bank atlantic center in fl and david was back! :d I WAS SO HAPPY

[frankenstrat25]

sry dude but sammy had EXTRAORDINARY vocals he wud destroy dave in a vocal battle

[iDrumLoudlySH]

only 25 songs... wtf...

[princekingofkings]

no actualy its a minium of 47 bcuz 25 songs+3 solos+19 other artists

[SebastianSB]

that's how all these shitty guitar hero band games are...25 songs from the band and then about as many tracks from a bunch of other bands that aren't the reason you bought the disc =/

[rammstein2212]

I Didn't Buy it i got mine free haha

[damiaking]

wow all i know is that eruption is gonna b crazy 2 play

[num1coltsfan85]

i'm still waiting for Guitar Hero: Led Zeppelin

[twm409]

too bad it'll prolly never happen cause jimmy page wont sell any rights to the music :(

[num1coltsfan85]

yea i know......still it would be bad ass

[GeorgVanHalen]

damn what people complains! It's only a game.. first Guitar Hero: Aerosmith was bad, then people complain about Metallica and now Van Halen! Seriously all three are among the best selling and popular bands ever. If you don't like them of think the game is too easy. Don't buy it! Nobody cares what you think about a game.. especially if you haven't even played it !

[ZabuzaMomochi567]

whats that solo song??? plz some1 reply

[bx4lyf3]

eruptions one of them

[SunnyvaleRaider1771]

i still want guitar hero iron maiden!

but i agree there should be a lot! more slipknot!

[rotfflmfbao]

If they made a guitar hero iron maiden id shit my pants and Scream naked in my yard.lol

[HarryPalma]

Unchained!! @ Little Guitars

[HarryPalma]

Unchained!!

[thebrewerspone888]

it looks like they wont include ant sammy hagar stuff in it:(

[FlamnpenguinSH]

sammy hagar sucks

[babysnoize]

its VAN HALEN, not VAN HAGAR

[thebrewerspone888]

i never said it was. there is nothing wrong about beeing a sammy hagar van

[HardHackers]

He was talking about sammy hager and the van part is in the GeorgVanHalen

DUH!!

[vandanyhalen]

and it isn't VAN ROTH...

how you say it's VAN HALEN and Hagar was part of VH just like David Lee Roth is.

[juju437]

running with the devil is the perfect classic rock song

[Switch1625]

Hopefully you can add your own members to the band so i can get rid of wolfgang and put some hot chick with big boobs.

[darkaderkadarka]

wolfies skinny...douche lee has hair... eddie doesn't look like hes dying from dope.... These games sure are fantasies

[xxxpillipiiparixxx]

GH slipknot would be nice, it would be balanced, complex guitar solos, hard basses, semi-hard vocals, and definitely hard drums, van halen is too muc about the guitar imo

[MikeTenninch]

no it wont, the drums will be good if not great... hav u ever listened to van halen??

[tomahawk368]

Shit!! Not more kids runnin around saying "I can play Van Halen!". SHIT!!!

[BluesBreaker15]

why the fuck is wolfgang there

hes such a fat fuck

[xbR1TTx12]

hahahah, i just lol'd

[zraywood]

i know

[falloutaddict101]

its gonna b the 2nd best guitar hero ever.... next 2 guitar hero metallica

[SpeedDemon88X]

If Led Zeppelin were to make a game(they wont)...it would be epic. Led Zeppelin has at least 15 songs played regularly on the radio. No other band can compete with that.

[NoyeRox]

Too bad Zeppelin sucks...

[Tuplabotti]

Led Zeppelin = best band ever!

[Drumguy780Fps]

too bad you have a bad taste in music

[adfrocker133]

yeah motley crue, has 15 too, want me to name them i will

[DaTfReShBxNiKkA2]

okkkthis looks good i swear Neversoft this better not be a fail......cause Metallica was a HUGE fail im hoping since this is van halen=]] its going to be sucessfully but i swear if its a fail i swear screw guitar hero

[DaTfReShBxNiKkA2]

Assassin824 whens the date that iron maiden is coming

[RikaMX]

i wont buy this game

but its cool that ill have it free because i order gh5 on gamestop :D lol

[poppinkrakr]

haha same here

[AliceinNirvanagarden]

I wish Led Zep would let their songs be put into music games but the sad truth is they're REALLY protective about their shiz. Heck Jack black had to BEG Jimmy Paige to have permission to play a little snipit of "immigrant song" in School of rock.

[pvhawkeye08]

isn't van halen supposedly "really protective" too though? so maybe there's some hope

[Rhonetta987]

guys chill out it's just a game!

[XsplicerX]

wow wtf no sammy hagar?>=(

[zraywood]

dave!!!!!! all tha way

[zraywood]

WHAT THE FUCK? yall need to grow the fuck up n start playin real guitars that arent made of plastic.i cant belive van halen would let this happen.and 1 more thing what the hell is wolfgang doing in any of these vids? he had nothing to do with any of these tracks .micheal anthony deserves full credit for his part

[jvlivzmania22]

Let me give you an advise, man.

IT'S A FUCKING GAME!!!!!

Nobody's gonna get a Platinum Record for getting 5 stars in Hot For Teacher,

so please, let the gamers have some fun.

[zraywood]

truuuuu my bad mn

[chimayoso]

I play both guitar hero and real guitar, the reason why the human race is doomed because we have dumb mfucka'z like this guy below me, haha dickhead

[HumanRaceIsDoomed]

what's so special about playing a plastic guitar...obviously for people who fail at playing real guitar

[Liverpool1616]

Your an Idiot, Clearly Its a VIDEO GAME, people play it because they are gamers, Not because they fail at playing a real guitar, apparently you got your hand so far up your ass to even relize that, So note to self, Think about what you type before actually typing.

[IndalecioCeleste]

GH: Aerosmith, GH: Metallica, and now GH: Van Halen! They sure have gotten better and better with these bands. Hoping for Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, but above all others, Led Zeppelin. But then again, it's not like they're going to get the rights to use any Led Zeppelin songs.

[metalfuror]

yes. classic metal. priest/maiden/dio/sabbath

[Assassin824]

Guitar Hero Iron Maiden is next

[CorruptedGaming]

I really hope so. That would kick ass.

[butters30692]

i cant believe they put wolgang in it tht fat retard, michael anthony was the original in all the songs that would be used, this is ridiculous.

[ZabuzaMomochi567]

a few days ago before i read this i actually thot gh def leppard would b awesome

[MADMMovies]

I want GH Slipknot !!!!

[Hunkola]

GH: Blink 182 = DOUCHEY

GH: Def Leppard = NOT BAD

GH: Van Halen = AWESOME

GH: Van Hagar = DONT EVEN THINK ABOUT IT

[chaoticXdisaster]

Guitar Hero: Def Leppard needs to be next..

[iownallnoobs]

jonas brothers own van halen

[edgarbm95]

so true :)

[L0ver80y]

Heartlessmarko

Your a retard to like sounds that radiate from the so called "band" blink-182

it would be crap since all the guitars would only be rhythm, and wouldn't even be considered music.

I've been waiting for van halen, seeing how hard the next GH would be.

I became expert in about a month a year ago starting with GH3 beat World tour in one day, metallica and smash hits in one.

I do have a life, hand-eye coordination is only mastered from those who have great intelligence.

[Heartlessmarko]

Guitar Hero: Blink 182 would be amazing!

[kingdomoftheworm]

Wow, what a slap in the face to Mike Anthony.

[ctpeeps96]

Led Zepplilin needs to be next

[WorkForSchool]

They'll never make it unless they convince all of Led or Jimmy to sell their rights to GH. Jimmy won't ever sell the rights 'cause he's disappointed at how teens learn about music these days. Or better yet, kids.

[Zaptroxix]

For sure man, and after Black Sabbath

[butters30692]

yeh black sabbath would be insane, could u imagin how hard it would be

[sk8tersrgtd]

is the only way to get this game is to buy gh 5

[ZronZ]

no, it will be coming out some time after christmas though. So meaningfully if you buy GH5 for the 360, ps3, or wii, you'll get Van Halen completely for free... MONTHS before other people. BUT, the catch is, if you do not buy GH5 in september, you won't get a ticket for Van Halen.

[drummersdoitbetter10]

Where the hell is Michael Anthony?

[darkincinerater]

they replaced him with wolfgang van halen

[LinkTheSamurai]

I woul pay any amount of money for Guitar Heo: Black Sabbath if it had over 70 songs.

[EETMORECHIKN]

I do agree. but he is the current bassist so if he wasnt in the game it may look bad

[streettaco27]

Wolfgang Van Halen doesn't deserve to be in Van Halen, Michael Anthony should be!

[ImTheHaloGod]

why do this, just put the fucking van halen songs on live marketplace for download, for existing guitar hero games

[tomtom255]

Who is the blonde woman who ruined Van Halen?-David Lee Roth

[redsoxfan6794]

Masturbation Hero comes out this january

[kirastrider]

rofl!!! i would be on the expert difficulty.

[TreverBFMVfan]

why Van Halen why?!? i'm not saying there bad but there is better bands, i mean they could've made a GH Def Lepoard or h/e you spell it or like a Black Sabbath GH

[SquidfishProduction]

thats terrible. GH Def Lepard would be horrible. it would be too easy, both guitar and drums. and Black Sabbath...who except old people would wanna play an entire Black Sabbath game?

[TreverBFMVfan]

wow Black Sabbath isn't that old and there amazing atleast there songs would have more of a challenge, and i'm not a big fan of Def Lepard but it wouldn't be any worse then Van Halen, and it's GH, they make the easiest songs hard, they should've atleast made a Led Zeppelin one.

[sonickchri]

Dude, I was wondering when they were going to come out with this!! I was always thinking that they should make a Guitar Hero: Van Halen! I am mind-blowingly stoked right now...

[crazymike959]

ah ah ah you need to buy a guitar hero 5 game with the van halen offer on it, the offer ends at the end of september. this is an unreleased game

[Germany1111]

When Ed looked that young, Wolfgang wasn't even BORN yet. No Michael Anthony or Sammy Hagar? LAME. I know, a lot of folks prefer Dave, but Sammy was just as important to the band. If they really wanted to do it right for the hardcore fans, there'd even be Van Halen 3 songs and Gary Cherone.

[mouthoffxxx]

I like this better than GH 5 track list.. even the extra songs on VH are good.

[haj890]

no haggar songs gay

[xboxmaniac22]

Naw hagar wasnt bad, he just was different than roth man.

[jackofalltrades001]

December 22, 2009

[Ford8844]

Sweet, getting this for free =D

[cpbowler4]

And so is everyone buying GH 5 this month.

[megamanxdeath]

ME TOO

[godwhyisthistaken]

awsome

[momohasaids]

0:28 assless chaps 0-0

[legallyalien]

Seriously, Wolfgang?

Lame.

[DaniANTIES3PK]

name song plis???

[XJOJO411X]

wait?

is this a add on for guitar hero 5

or is it a demo before the real game comes

[gtrjoe68]

Fuck this! Micheal Anthony got screwed.
