PS3 News \ Top Gun Theme Coming to Guitar Hero 3

Grab your wingman and fire up the F-14 for the announcement today of a special Fourth of July treat for Activision, Inc.’s Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock fans. Beginning July 4, 2008, the legendary, GRAMMY award-winning “Top Gun Anthem” will be available as a free downloadable song for the game.

The instrumental, guitar-heavy theme was immortalized in the hit film that inspired a generation of young men to awkwardly serenade women at bars, perform perfectly-timed “flipside” high fives and threaten to “buzz the tower.”

The song will be available as a free download to Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock mavericks and their wingmen everywhere for Xbox LIVE Marketplace and on PSN on July 4, 2008.

I got 100% notes hit on Easy today (LOL yeah yeah I know it was on Easy but thats good for me), on medium I can get about 90% of them. I turned the 5.1 surround sound on today fairly loud as no one was home & sounds pretty good.

The beginnning of this song is a bit boring but like crazynites says, but it does get lot harder to the end. Not bad for a free song.

Done some googling & the instrumental (2nd vid posted) is gonna be the GH3 track, its Steve Stevens on guitar, best known for being the guitarist for Billy Idol for a long time.

EDIT: Its nw on the PSN store, it is indeed the instrumental Top Gun theme, alot of fun to play, bit easy (I only play on easy & medium) at first but then it gets a bit tricky.

Yeah your right Steve, im pretty sure the above song is it now, it has that catchy guitar riff that would suit Guitar Hero 3.

well everyone wants original master tracks, covers dont cut it & AC/DC have so far refused to co-operate or are asking for too much money, im sure want AC/DC on guitar hero as would rockband but if the band dont want to be part of it theres not much they can do.


i didnt really think of that... but still thunderstruck on guitar hero?? be way harder than dragonforce
