I've been seeing ads on line and now on TV for Guitar Hero 5 and you get VH free when you buy it. I'd think that it would be able to sell on its own. Maybe it's because of Wolfie.
VH Guitar Hero Free???

It's only for a limited time...then people have to purchase it separately. I think it's great. More people exposed to the music. More of those peoples friends hearing it & thinking "damn, this rocks", and going out to buy their own copy.“Great losses often bring only a numb shock. To truly plunge a victim into misery, you must overwhelm him with many small sufferings.” -
Yes...it's true.
There's actually another thread on here somewhere that mentions this as well from quite awhile back.
I just picked up GH5 for PS3 yesterday, and filled out the online voucher to get my GH/VH free.
I should be shrEDding on 5 multi-color buttons in 4 to 6 weeks....
If you want GH/VH on it's own without GH5, you'll have to wait until December.Originally posted by perilouspete

I've sent off for mine... get it in 4 - 6 weeks (yay early). They are giving it away because Activision milks the GH series, thinking they can (practically literally) release 9 editions a year and not saturate their own marketComment

LMAO. You're a dick.
My son turned 21 the weekend before Labor Day, and since I KNEW he wasn't about to hang out with me on such a monumental occasion (who the fuck would want to hang out with their parents the moment you become legal, right?) we decided to get together over the holiday. He starts talking about this Guitar Hero world tour game. So, I grab him a 6 pack of his choice, and I snatch up the game and one of those plastic guitars that you use with it.
It was like he was a little kid again! He played that thing damn near all day, and you know what? I had fun watching him, not to mention the tunes are pretty good. I wasn't expecting CCR, Paul McCartney and shit, but it was on there. Some other stuff too, but I don't remember offhand....until he gets to Hot For Teacher...I could hear the song in the background on the menu screen. I say, "If that's one of the songs on there, stop and let me try it."
It was.
I thought, "fuck, I played this a gazillion times, I'll show him how a REAL guitar player rolls!"..
squeak...diddley diddley..squeak...plink-clank..
BOOOOO!!!!!!!!!
Man, fuck Guitar Hero!

i've said it before...i would rather play real guitar poorly than play Guitar Hero well.Writing In All Proper Case Takes Extra Time, Is Confusing To Read, And Is Completely Pointless.Comment

I've been playing guitar since I was 14, and I found GH was pretty easy to pick up.
I wasn't great right out of the gate, but it didn't take long to get proficient.Originally posted by perilouspete

This is a no-lose situation for VH.... I personally don't give two shits whether they'll lose some profits by them including it for free along with GH 5, although I'm sure they're getting some sort of residual fees from those GH 5 sales....
This is all about exposure to The Mighty Van Halen, and I'm all for it....Eat Us And Smile - The Originals

I learned something new from the Van Halen Guitar Hero trailer...
I didn't know Wolfgang played for the original lineup....
It's kinda fucked up when they show the younger band...
With Wolfie in some type of Michael Anthony "1984" era outfit lolComment
