Guitar Hero: Hendrix coming soon?

PALGN Rumour | Slash says it is.
It seems that an upcoming Guitar Hero game will focus on the exploits of Jimi Hendrix, one of the most popular guitarists in history.

The news comes from a Rolling Stone interview with Velvet Revolver guitarist, Slash. You might also know him from his work with Guns N' Roses and his appearance in Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock.

Steven Tyler, Aerosmith front man, spoke to Slash before committing to Guitar Hero: Aerosmith, which apparently made more money than any Aerosmith album.

"He called me about it before they did it and I was like, "You gotta do it." It’s cool actually ’cause I was the first real face on that game, and it’s sort of taken on a life of its own," boasted Slash.

"Having the Aerosmith guys do it was very cool ’cause Aerosmith’s one of the bands I was heavily influenced by. And Metallica’s doing it, that’s great. Those are two ones that I think gives it some credibility.

"And they’re doing a Hendrix one, which is great."

It would be great if they just did cheap releases of a heap of bands, and each new expansion was like $40~ odd, included 30-40 songs and info about hte band etc like aerosmith did. i would buy every single one.

As long as they give us the option of exporting songs for play in GHWT that's all good.

Or just do it as DLC in the first place...

Either way is fine, I'm just not looking forward to disc-swapping.

This.

GH: Aerosmith at full retail price was just bad. Lower RRP and a "story-mode" of say, 20 songs or so would be much better. Than save the bigger games for "Legends of METAL!" etc.
