Title: Slash set to shred in Guitar Hero 3

Eagerly anticipating the release of Guitar Hero III? Here?s another tantilizing tidbit: Slash will be a character in the game. The legendary guitarist will not, however, be easy to get to: In order to ?unlock? Slash (who donned a motion-capture suit so game makers could track his every pluck), players will have to face him in a one-on-one shredding duel after completing all the songs in the game. No word on whether players are getting Appetite-era Slash, the scruffy leader of Slash?s Snakepit, Michael Jackson?s pal Slash or the Paulina Rubio-collaborating current member of Velvet Revolver.

In keeping with the game theme...without starting a new thread.  I have no idea about the credibility of this site.

Rumor...Velvet Revolver to play Rock Band Party.

Remember that Rock Band E3 Party invite we posted last week? The one that said there was a going to be "super secret special guests" ? Well, a little birdie tells me that the band for the party will be Velvet Revolver. Don't know if that's the full list of special guests or not, but should be fun either way.

I went to E3 yesterday and got to play Guitar Hero 3.  It was pretty sweet.  Slash was not available to play on the version they had on the exhibit floor...but you could play WTTJ.  That was pretty cool.  Also very hard.  My first time ever playing the game.  I got my ass handed to me by my friend.

Some of the characters were a guy who looked like Jimi Hendrix, a fat member of Slipknot, and a tall skinny Iggy Pop with a spiky mohawk.

Be a real guitar hero, beat Slash

July 12th, 2007, filed by Scott Hillis

What does a bona fide guitar hero do in his spare time? Play the ?Guitar Hero? video game, naturally.

Slash, the top-hat-sporting former axeman for rock legends Guns N? Roses, says his passion for the popular music game led to a deal with publisher Activision that features him in the franchise?s upcoming third installment, called, appropriately enough, ?Guitar Hero III?.

?Funnily enough, I got hooked on ?Guitar Hero? in a tour bus and I just fell in love with it,? Slash said at Activision?s media briefing at E3, the video game industry?s annual trade show.

?I guess at some point our merchandisers and our manager had discussions about stuff I might want to get involved in and ?Guitar Hero? was one of them,? said Slash, whose day job is lead guitarist for rock band Velvet Revolver.

A deal was quickly worked out to feature Slash in the game as a ?boss? who challenges players to a guitar-shredding face-off. Slash also wrote and performed the theme song for the game, which is scheduled to hit shelves ahead of the holidays.  The songlist includes G?N'R?s ?Welcome to the Jungle?, Velvet Revolver?s ?She Builds Quick Machines?, ?Paint it Black? by The Rolling Stones and ?Even Flow? by Pearl Jam.

?It?s pretty heavy, pretty loud, all the things ?Guitar Hero? is. It?s got a very addicting quality to it and anybody who knows me knows that applies to me. Out of all the things I?ve been involved with, other than being in a band, this is definitely the coolest.?
