"Ozzy Osbourne has sold over 100 million records, been the star of his own reality show and bit the head off of a live bat on stage. The rock icon who has just about done it all will add one more notch to his belt this fall when he makes his first videogame appearance in Activision's in Guitar Hero World Tour. That is just the tip of the iceberg as the new info on Guitar Hero World Tour came in a virtual flood today.

You can't have Ozzy Osbourne as a playable character without at least one of his songs being featured in the game. For Ozzy, Activision has nailed down two, "Crazy Train" and "Mr. Crowley," both originally released on his debut solo album Blizzard of Ozz. The love for Ozzy doesn't end there. OZZFest has been confirmed as an in-game venue, exclusive to World Tour.

Several other OZZFest bands will also be featured in World Tour. Ozzy Osbourne's lead guitarist and founder of Black Label Society, Zakk Wylde, will be a playable character in the game, bringing with him the song "Stillborn." In addition to delivering the upcoming album Death Magnetic as downloadable content in both Guitar Hero III and World Tour, Metallica will be featured on the disc with the track "Trapped Under Ice." Rounding out the OZZFest announcements is System of a Down, which will offer up "BYOB."

Though not featured as OZZFest bands, IGN has been told an additional seven tracks that will be included on the Guitar Hero World Tour set list. Those are:

Airbourne -- "Too Much Too young..."
At the Drive-in -- "One Armed Scissor"
Black Rebel Motorcycle Club -- "Weapon of Choice"
Bob Seger -- "Hollywood Nights"
Dinosaur Jr. -- "Feel the pain"
Silversun Pickups -- "Lazy Eye"
Survivor -- "Eye of the Tiger"

If you're keeping track, this brings the total number of confirmed songs to 23 to date. The previously announced songs are:

Billy Idol -- "Rebel Yell"
Blink 182 -- "Dammit"
Foo Fighters -- "Everlong"
Jimi Hendrix -- "Purple Haze Live"
Jimi Hendrix -- "Wind Cries Mary"
Linkin Park -- "What I've Done"
Paramore -- "Misery Business"
Sublime -- "Santeria"
The Doors -- "Love Me Two times"
The Eagles -- "Hotel California"
Van Halen -- "Hot for Teacher"

  • "Ozzy Osbourne Invented Heavy Metal"!!! Oh, Really??? "Tony Iommi" And "Geezer Butler" Wrote The Majority Of The Music/Lyrics In Black Sabbath!!! "Ozzy Wrote The Lyrics To The Song Black Sabbath"!!! Yeah, But It Was About Geezer's Demon Experience And Plus That Was Only 1 Out Of The 2 Black Sabbath Songs That Ozzy Actually Wrote Lyrics For!!! Ozzy Wrote 2/165 Black Sabbath Songs!!! Yeah, Ozzy Is The Man... Not!!!

  • well... that's pretty much the reason for me to buy this game.

  • why not in warriors of rock

  • Shit Jonas Brothers, Shit all those wannabes.

    Linkin Park, Breaking Benjamin, Three Days Grace, Trust Company, 30 Sec To Mars, and all those successful bands who don't have vocalists singing like a girl, you guys rock

    But all due respects to Mr Osbourne, Godfather Of Heavy Metal

    Without his great influence, Rock genre would be taking shits, without metal rock; alternative rock, hard rock, soft rock, all the rock genres would not have such glory now. Thank you sir, for the Rock we have today.

  • Why don´t make a whole guitar hero game with Ozzy that would be so cool!!!

  • @LiLShaGWirE565
