  1. It's a great package for fans of the band and die-hard fans of the Guitar Hero series starved for new music.
  2. Ultimately, if you like Metallica (a lot), and if you like the standard Guitar Hero gameplay formula, then this game is well worth the price of admission. If you don’t meet both those criteria, however, you really should move on.

    Metallica is my favorite band and I am a huge guitar hero fan. When they came out with this game when I was younger I was absolutely stokedMetallica is my favorite band and I am a huge guitar hero fan. When they came out with this game when I was younger I was absolutely stoked and could not wait to play it once I got it. I'm almost sure I played the whole game within the next 2 to 3 days. Still to this day it is one of my favorite games of all time and one of my top favorites for guitar hero games. The only thing I would of liked was to be able to possibly purchase extra songs that were not made directly for the game that were left off of the Metallica track list. Full Review »
