Giddy Like a School Girl (with an Axe!)
Slashdot delivered amazing news like none other today when they linked to a recently announced…

Wow, I can’t tell you how excited I am to hear about this. There is an interview over at IGN with John Tam that is definitely worth a read, but here are the highlights that make Guitar Hero II the hottest game ever for me:
- Uses the same guitar(s)
- 55+ new songs
- 40 new songs from big labels. (With bigger bands now that Guitar Hero is huge.)
- Co-operative multiplayer where there are two (one for each player) tracks for each song. Players select which instrument they want to play, either paired as Lead and Rhythm or Lead and Bass.
- Practice mode. Even loop a part of a song to practice just that part.
- New characters, venues, guitars.
This is just going to be too awesome!
