The Yeah Yeah Yeahs, The Faint, and Editors populate Guitar Hero 5 this week.
This week's Guitar Hero 5 downloadable content consists of one three-song track pack that includes "Dull Life" by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, "The Geeks Were Right" by The Faint, and "Munich" by Editors.
This is the Yeah Yeah Yeahs' Guitar Hero debut after "Maps" and "Date With The Night" appeared on Rock Band. "Dull Life" is off of their latest album, which came out in March.
The Faint, an indie rock that has been around since 1995, is making their first appearance in the rhythm game genre with "The Geeks Were Right," which is from their most recent album, Fasciinatiion.
Editors are a British indie rock band and this is also their first appearance in a rhythm game.
The track pack is now available in the Xbox Live Marketplace for 440 Microsoft Points ($5.50), the PlayStation Store for $5.49, and the Wii Shop Channel for 550 Wii Points ($5.50). The songs are available separately for 160 Microsoft Points ($2) on Xbox Live, $1.99 on the PlayStation Store, and 200 Wii Points ($2).
It’s been a long time since we’ve seen an entry in the Metroid Prime series - 18 years, in fact. It was 8 years ago that Metroid Prime 4 was originally announced and its development was more than a little turbulent. Initially developed by Bandai Namco, it was later scrapped completely and development was shifted back to Retro Studios to start the project over. In the end, Retro has delivered a solid new entry in the series, but one that doesn’t totally capture what originally made the series so compelling.
