    Yeah, that list kinda blows. Who the hell is in charge of selecting these "Smash Hits" anyway?

    Whoever the fuck thought Barracuda was a better choice than Crazy On You, is suffering from severe mental problems.

    Also...*insert bickering about Knights of Cyndonia not being in here*

    Besides Raining Blood, that's a better list than the others.

    My guess is they are doing 1 song per artist, and The Trooper is already in the game.

    I'd much prefer "The Trooper" over "Number of the Beast", hands down.

    I thought Raining Blood was a blast to play. I'm all for KISS, anytime, anywhere, but the cover of it in GH3 was God awful! They ruined one of the greatest rock anthems of all time! Also, I like Heart. I think they're raddest girl group to ever grace this Earth, so I like that idea. As for the others, I could live without all of them. Especially anything by AFI.

    Weird that the GH1 and 2 lists were huge, yet GH3 was pretty small by comparison.  Maybe there are more to come?  (cough...DLC).

    There is no...NO...excuse to not have Knights of Cydonia on that list.  Even if you're not a drooling Muse fan, that song is too awesome for words.

    Wheres Slipknot, Muse, Disturbed, Tenacious D, and The Rolling Stones? The songs by these artists should be in this damn list

    Do you think they'll give the option to use the foot petal with the guitar?  It's not exactly the same, but it would make the song much more, well, real I guess

    My....that's not a good list. OK, thank you Activision, because I don't want to get this anymore. No "Paint it Black" or "Welcome to the Jungle"? Sheesh.

    Isn't Cliffs of Dover an instrumental? Just shooting in the dark here, but I think that that might be why it isn't on Smash Hits. What with these tracks getting the full band treatment and all. Also, that's mostly likely why Barracuda is on this list. That song is a blast to sing.

    Barracuda is no where near as epic as Crazy On You on Vocals. There is absolutely no excuse to pick Barracuda over Crazy On You.

    Given that Muse is already on World Tour with a song that, personally, is better than "Knights...", I can understand why it's not on there.


    I'm also pissed that Barracuda is on the game but Crazy on You isn't.  I'm more pissed that they don't have "Impulse" or "La Grange" on it!!!

    Hell, they don't even have Stevie from GH1!!!

    But OOOOHHH, of fucking COURSE they have Dragonforce.  Great.  -_-  Now I get to hear tons of kids constantly fail over and over again....AGAIN!

    Lack of Stevie is a giant WTF in my eyes, especially since we know the masters exist :\

    We need to start a club called "WHY THE FUCK DID THEY PICK BARRACUDA OVER CRAZY ON YOU?!"
    It can have matching T-shirts and we can meet on Thursdays. Punch & Pie.

    "One" is on GH: Metallica, which already has the full band experience.  "Assassin" by Muse is on GH: World Tour, which already has the full band experience.  "Cliffs of Dover" is a guitar-focused song, not a band experience focused song.

    Those are the three explanations I would expect to hear out of Activision for why "Cliffs...", "Knights...", and "One" are not included on this.  However, stuff like All That Remains, Shadows Fall, MEGADETH, Dethklok, ZZ Top, Stevie, etc are almost inexcusable!!!  There is absolutely no way "Hangar 18" wasn't voted as one of the most bad ass songs on Guitar Hero II.  Likewise, with Guitar Hero III, it's almost impossible for me to believe that "Impulse" by An Endless Sporadic wasn't voted as one of the favorites.  That song gets tons of play STILL, and it's absolutely fucking awesome!!!

    Well it's got three of my favorites from GH3 so it's got my approval. But I'm more interested in knowing what songs from 1 and 2 will be in it.
