Hell Yeah! Guitar Hero Metallica comes out on March 29th.

I’m surprized that there wasn’t a thread for this yet. Anyhow, anyone else pumped for this game? I’m looking forward to playing it. There is more news about it on [metallica.com](http://metallica.com).

This was posted at [Metallica.com](http://Metallica.com):

Sweet!

I’m picking my copy up first thing Wednesday. I work the next two nights and I have a final to study for, so I’ll get it when I have more free time to play it.

Edit:

Although, I did download the demo to tide me over. The demo is pretty good, so the full game should kick ass.

Did pretty bad in my store too, actually. Forgot to do that in my previous post. It was already marked down lower then World Tour, and I got a couple used copies in already.
