For those of you who'd like to see
The Beatles make their way into
some music game, you might be able to have a nice consolation prize.
Guitar Hero: World Tour has just been confirmed to include a plethora of new tracks, one of which is
Paul McCartney & Wings' "Band on the Run." Whether you're a fan of the man's post-Beatles efforts or not, you have to admit it's a catchy tune.
The full list of confirmed tracks is after the break.
Rolling Stone confirms these tracks for the game:
- Dream Theater - "Pull Me Under"
- Filter - "Hey Man Nice Shot"
- NOFX - "Soul Doubt"
- Rise Against - "Re-Education (Through Labor)"
- Steve Miller - "The Joker"
- The Answer - "Never Too Late"
- The Stone Roses - "Love Spreads"
- Trust - "Anti-Social"
- Wings - "Band on the Run"
Other classic rock fans will also appreciate Steve Miller's "The Joker." Any tracks here that make you lean one way or the other in the great
Rock Band vs Guitar Hero debate?

i know no one seems to like rock band on the wii, but i'm a proud owner and i enjoy it. it's great for parties, too, compared to GH3.
right now, i'm leaning towards rock band 2 because of the tracklist. i love the diversity of the artists and i'm a huge fan of most of the tracks.
the only track that has me interested in GHWT is "beat it." that solo is going to be insanely fun to play on guitar.

At first, I thought "Whoa! NoFX is going to be in this one?! That really surprises me..." .....then I realized which song they contributed. In the typical NoFX humor style, it was Soul Doubt. Say the name out loud if you don't get it.
Hilarious.
Still not a fan of rhythm games, though. I only ever liked Feet of Fury for the DC, and I only played that with the regular controller.

3 Tool songs were also confirmed to be in the game, in the same press release that announced Sting as a playable character. The songs are "Parabola", "Schism", and "Vicarious". There's also going to be a venue that was co-designed by the band.
