    I agree...most songs I don't care if they're covered or not, but this song is a classic...I miss the fiddle too, just doesn't sound quite right.

        To ruin a classic like that? Yes it is that terrible.

          Just heard it and i agree with EG. I rather not have the song then have them spend time doing that hack-job to it.

            To be honest... what did you guys expect? The game is called Guitar Hero, not Violin Hero. If you guys did not expect it to be "guitarized", then I don't know what you all were thinking. Personally, I think it sounds cool. I too hate that they "guitarized" it, but guess what? I knew they were going to anyway... so in my opinion, they pulled it off the best way possible in terms of "guitarizing" it. That's all I mean.

            I'm much more pissed off about the game altogether. IMO the overall fretboard visuals and song sounds (especially when cutting off) sound like utter crap, and I've been saying it since the first videos where I thought things were probably going to change. I don't know if I'll even get this game, and I ABSOLUTELY LOVE Guitar Hero. I'll just find a way to play my custom songs, and guess what? I'll make Devil Went Down to Georgia with the actual song.

              So, um, that one song by Dragonforce looks pretty hard.

                I love the original, but I am in the minority, I think they did an amazing job with the guitar version of "Devil...." My only complaint is I think they used the wrong voice. I would have kept it "country."

                      I don't think anybody here has a problem with the guitar in the cover. I don't think anybody was expecting to hear a fiddle on Guitar Hero, but the style they used for the cover was the wrong one to use - not everything in a Guitar Hero game has to be metal or hard rock. I think a cover would sounded fine if they took a southern rock or rockabilly approach to it rather than trying to metalize it.

                        I agree, they could have handled this song 100 times better than with that crap.

                              Does anybody know if it would be possible for Activision to release GH2 for the Wii down the road since Harmonix left?

                                I agree, why do they insist on making the playlists so hardcore? Maybe its because im not a fan of metal, and i like more alternative stuff, but i would welcome a lighter playlist.
