For some reason I wasn't sure if I'd be picking up GH Metallica when it was initially announced, but the more I find out about it the more excited I get.  At this point it's safe to say I'll be picking it up day one.  I've even been watching youtube videos of people playing the game.  If you're a guitar-game nerd like myself you'll be interested to see some of the charting on Master of Puppets, but what I found most impressive about this video is the character model animations, not that we have time to stare at them when we're pulling off Kirk Hammett solos:

     I guess all that motion-capture paid off!  I always had beef with the way the singer in GH games just kinda stood there looking bored, so it's nice to see natural movements amongst the characters.

     Have you been wondering how tough that double bass will be for you?  Well here's an older video of some of the Activision guys playing Slayer's War Ensemble:

     I have give props to the guy singing, but we all know it's all about performance not just the way you sound.  He's got to work on his game.
