Activision reveals the full Guitar Hero Greatest Hits list
BY Matthew Razak May. 7th, 2009 More on:

Are you ready to rock… again! You knew you’ve been wanting to slam those plastic drums to some of Guitar Hero’s most popular tracks, but you couldn’t because they were in Guitar Hero before it had drums. You also knew that Guitar Hero Greatest Hits was going to let you do that. What you didn’t know was with which songs it was going to let you do that with. However, now with the release of the full set list for the upcoming game you can finally have those questions answered.

I’m more of a casual GH and Rock Band player so I have no idea how excited I should be for the return of many of these songs, but I can tell you that having never played much of the first game some of them are definitely welcome. Anything with any Queen in it always gets my vote, though I vaguely remember the cover version of “Killer Queen” being terrible. Thankfully GHGH has all master tracks. How very far we’ve come. Full list after the jump.
