      Right?? If it weren't for guitar hero 2, I would never have become so obsessed with guitars. This game made my childhood and I have so much appreciation for the game. I'm into my twenties now and have fulfilled my childhood dreams of playing on stage and stuff over the years and it feels unbelievable really. I love this game so much.

    2:22 Literally the only reason i SEARCHED for this video. My favorite song on that game. And it took me 15 years to realize that I only love it so much because the cover singer's voice is literally amazing. I love this version even more than the original. It's what made me fall in love with this song and ultimately rock and metal over the years. And this is coming from a complete 90s Hip-Hop head.

    • @DB-pw7lu
      @DB-pw7lu Před 4 lety +3

      ikr? It blew my 12 year old mind to find out it was actually a very small group of people (in comparison to the size of their project) that recorded everything. A small and very talented group of people.

    • @CassandraPantaristi
      @CassandraPantaristi Před 4 měsíci

      Some songs were originals, but most were covers (at least in later games). It wasn't until Guitar Hero III: Legends Of Rock where there were original songs rather than the whole soundtrack being covers. With the original Guitar Hero and Guitar Hero II, the entire playlist are covers.

    @filipefrancoafonso Před 6 lety +16

    If I can play Malmsteen on real guitar today it's because of these guys. I didn't even know what rock was until I played Guitar Hero II in a friends house. I felt amazing. Their work is awesome. Most cases I still prefer these GH covers to the master records. The guitar lines in Mother, Message In A Bottle, Woman, Free Bird, Hangar 18, etc are perfect.

      To be fair, Warriors of Rock is a really great game. You can tell they put a lot of work into it by the presentation alone. They got 2112 by Rush and an original track written by Megadeth specifically for that game, for goodness sake!

  • @SquibLmao
    @SquibLmao Před 5 lety +11

    I’ve seen many people get mad at the fact that the gh1 and 2 setlists we’re covers. That’s the point of the game, you play as a guitarist in a cover band. They made the covers because it’s more genuine for a cover band in a game to play actual song covers.

    • @the_evil_bread6317
      @the_evil_bread6317 Před 5 měsíci

      They did covers because licensing is expensive. You jokers will make up any delusional explanation just to feel better. The covers are great so it doesn’t matter.

    • @fluxie31
      @fluxie31 Před 3 měsíci +2

    @TUSMROX This was the standard practice for music games in the industry - everything from Donkey Konga to Karaoke Revolution used covers, and many of them were by WaveGroup. Nobody thought the Guitar Hero games would take off like they did, and that it would be beneficial (or profitable) to license master recordings. I think somebody at some record label realised what a marketing boost the GH games were giving their artists... :)
