SPOnG is gutted this morning after failing to obtain tickets for the forthcoming Sex Pistols gigs in Brixton this coming November by legal means. However, we can console ourselves with the news that two of our favourite Pistols' tracks – Anarchy In The UK and Pretty Vacant – are set to appear in Guitar Hero III when it launches this coming November.
That’s right. Adam has seen and heard the Pistols' tracks in the game with his very own eyes and ears and has already had the pleasure of playing them. Although he made the fatal mistake of playing Anarchy on ‘hard’ and failing miserably after around thirty seconds of high-speed plastic punk guitar strumming.
Check back next week for our full preview of Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock and warts-and-all interview with Kai Huang, the founder and bossman from the game’s publisher RedOctane. Plus, some genuinely hilarious Sex Pistols news that we've promised not to spill until next week...
Check what we've been lead to believe† is going to (near as damn it) be the full track-listing for GHIII below and weep. Then bear in mind that the game also features boss battles (Slash!) and encores, co-op and solo play, and a virtual jukebox full of awe-inspiring bonus tunes.
