Title: Guitar Hero Post by: mikeyj on April 26, 2008, 09:55:26 PM Does anyone else agree that it'd be cool to have a Beach Boys edition of Guitar Hero? I've heard rumours of Aerosmith and Beatles versions and while I know that a Beach Boys version would never happen, I think it would be pretty cool. I mean thats 70 or so songs to play with. Just my random thought for the day...

Title: Re: Guitar Hero Post by: Jonas on April 26, 2008, 10:25:47 PM This would be great, but how many guitar driven beach boys songs are there? Especially with solos and the like...
the list starts here! Title: Re: Guitar Hero Post by: Chris Brown on April 26, 2008, 10:33:17 PM I'd love it personally...I've played the game once, but I wouldn't ever buy it because I can't stand most of the songs. But I would be all over a Beach Boys version in a heartbeat.
All of this is assuming, of course, that there is a market for it beyond us BB fanatics. Unfortunately I somehow doubt there is :( Title: Re: Guitar Hero Post by: Joshilyn Hoisington on April 26, 2008, 10:42:01 PM You could do a version with the hits up to 1965, I think. There are lots of good surf solos and such.

Title: Re: Guitar Hero Post by: STE on April 27, 2008, 01:50:58 AM There is a free Guitar Hero clone for PC called "Frets on Fire": http://fretsonfire.wikidot.com/latest-fof (http://fretsonfire.wikidot.com/latest-fof) The game is played by a normal keyboard (fake guitar not needed) but the best part is that it's very easy to create playable songs to add to the game. There's a huge community creating playable-songs and sharing them. There are no Beach Boys songs that I found... the only seems to be the one I made myself as a test, "Pet Sounds": http://www.fretsonfire.net/cgi-bin/ikonboard.cgi?act=ST;f=5;t=19200;hl=beach+boys (http://www.fretsonfire.net/cgi-bin/ikonboard.cgi?act=ST;f=5;t=19200;hl=beach+boys) Have a look. If there's interest I could create more BB songs. STE Title: Re: Guitar Hero Post by: Aegir on April 27, 2008, 12:29:31 PM The live arrangement (I'm thinking Knebworth) of Do it Again
Bluebirds over the Mountain (but you'd have to play the bass part in-between the fills) All I Want To Do (but same thing, you'd have to play something between the fills) Dance, Dance, Dance... maybe I think about this all the time, actually, because my roommate has Guitar Hero III and Rock Band and there's always people over playing one or the other. |
