Don't stop believin' in the power of Guitar Hero. The sequal to the smash hit Guitar Hero, from Red Octane, is due out in less than two weeks. Put on your studded jacket, get out your hair spray, and start booking your world tour.

Guitar Hero 2 features 64 tracks, 40 of which are licensed covers. This line up covers the spectrum when it comes to rock 'n' roll. From some of the worlds largest bands like KISS, Aerosmith, Motley Crue, and Van Halen to todays mainstream stars, Wolfmother, Lamb of God, Avenged Sevenfold, and Foo Fighters. Grunge is back with GH2 also, RedOctane dug up some Nirvana and even Alice In Chains for this go around. Having a played a couple of tracks let me just warn you, it's going to get ugly.

On top of the new set list there are new venues to rock out at. You'll start your career at a high school battle of the bands and work your way up to rock superstardom. Throw in three new playalble characters and you're all set to become "bigger than Jesus". Please no angry letters.

If you plan on playing GH2 on your Xbox 360 when in come out in 2007, you'll be given some extra treats such as the Mini Gibson X-Plorer Guitar controller. Now you can rock out even harder. Also with the 360's online abilities there will be downloadable songs incase you burn through the first 64.
