They'll screen all the songs that get uploaded?

They will if they want to sell any DLC. All of the major bands have guitar tabs and drum charts on the internet that mean it will take only a few hours to enter them into GH:WT.

 

[FightyF]

Seriousy guys, do any of you think before you post. No copyrighted songs will be shareable. It'll all be shitty home made crap. That is why the feature is so poor.

And did you read all the posts? I have permission from the band to convert their songs.

 

[Bigfoot]

You realise youtube is being sued right? This will be policed much better than youtube for the reason that Activision relies on the record companies for its product. Piss off the bands who provide your music and you lose by default.

So then just let us have our fun and say which song WE will make (which was the point of this thread, btw). I can still make any song and keep it for myself and friends. If it is enforced, and the music editor isn't too difficult to use, I expect websites to pop up that will have step by step instructions to make some of the big songs anyways.

good thing i have a backup name for my song....."ouch im quite burnt"

Fair enough, just that most people were saying they would wait for others to do it.

I'll be making teethrgrinder, and then being sad that vocalists get stiffed by the music creator.

 

[Bigfoot]

I think the lack of vocals will be a factor for DLC. Even if I recreated a song perfectly, I would still buy the song for DLC because of vocals.

Given most people I play with online have bought about 1 DLC song, I would have to say that those of us willing to pay are in the minority

 

[ThatObviousUser]

Even if songs are screened, I fully expect YouTube video tutorials showing you how to make certain songs.

 

[EviLore]

Extremely unrealistic to pre-screen every song. They'll do what everyone else does, let the copyright holders do their own leg work and take down anything that gets flagged by them. Still, without vocals being present (so DLC sales probably won't be affected much), and these being midi recreations mostly confined within in a videogame (it's not like people are going to externally audio capture copyrighted tracks on the service and put them on their ipods...) , I don't forsee the enforcement being as strict as youtube even.

 

[Toy Soldier]

Britney Spears - Get Naked (I Got a Plan)

But I'll make it sound like a Mötley Crüe interpretation of it.

 

[HugBasket]

You get a line and I'll get a pole, honey
You get a line and I'll get a pole, babe
You get a line and I'll get a pole
And we'll go down to that crawdad hole
Honey, baby mine.

What you gonna do when the lake goes dry, honey
What you gonna do when the lake goes dry, babe
What you gonna do when the lake goes dry
Gonna sit on the bank and watch the crawdads die
Honey, baby mine.

Get up, Sue, you slept too late, honey
Get up, Sue, you slept too late, babe
Get up, Sue, you slept too late,
That crawdad man's done passed your gate
Honey, baby mine.

Standin' on the corner with a dollar in my hand, honey
Standin' on the corner with a dollar in my hand, babe
Standin' on the corner with a dollar in my hand
Standin' there waitin' for the crawdad man
Honey, baby mine.

Dream: Between the Buried and Me, Ants of the Sky

[Willy Wanka]

Are there any videos that show this song editor in action?

 

[EviLore]

Yes, there are in-depth looks at the major sites.

Look at the "music studio walkthrough" videos:

[saunderez]

Realistically: Pennywise, Brohym

That was my first choice, though I predict we'll see the service flooded with Bro Hymn's in short order. I'll probably end up doing American Jesus by Bad Religion.

Thanks for the link, I had no idea they released this sort of detailed info on it.

Sucks that you can't use your own master tracks to make songs...

 

[permutated]

I must be going insane: I swear the either EGM or GI said last month that the song-creation feature had been dropped.

Am I going crazy?

 

[TheGreatDave]

They said the "freestyle over songs" stuff had been dropped. A lesser, but still upsetting fact.

 

[Dina]

I'll be impressed if I can get somewhere close to a song.

 

[sevenchaos]

Intro music from Little Nemo Dream Master.

 

[Pizza Luigi]

I'm not sure how far you can go with making your own songs.

Otherwise, I'll try Breezin' from George Benson.

 

[ThatObviousUser]

What does that mean?

 

[Alethea]

Swagger by Flogging Molly.

C'mon, that song would be fun and Irish punk needs more Guitar Hero love.

 

[DGRP]

What does that mean?

Remix mode.

 

[Torquill]

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star to warm up

Then we'll see... :lol

 

[Dark Octave]

So, you buy Guitar Hero World Tour, play it for awhile and then decide to mess around with the song editor. After making a few simple songs of your own, you get a grasp for how it works. It's now time to make a song that you know will be fun for you and your friends, and hopefully good enough to release to the Internet for all to enjoy. What song will you make?

My choice:

Shine - Collective Soul

It isn't too hard, but not too simple either, and it's a fun song to play on guitar and sing.

Your doing it wrong. Backwards to be exact.

You make someone else's crap to get adjusted/learn to how to make a song. Then you make YOUR OWN songs to post on XBL/PSN for others to enjoy.

 

[GuitarAtomik]

I'm going to try to do a cover of one of my own songs. Either that or make something new. I'm sure I'll try to do some covers of other songs later too........maybe Prince

 

[Christine]

That's kind of disappointing. I hope that feature makes it into a future version of GH or RB.

A Change of Seasons

Spoiler

then die

or 2112 by Rush.

 

[NEO Frog]

A Change of Seasons

I've seen that entire 24 minute song live at a Dream Theater Concert. It was amazing!

 

[Bogus]

My first project is going to be based off of Herbie Hancock's Chameleon. These music games are sorely lacking in funk!

Or I guess that would be fusion, wouldn't it?

 

[fresquito]

A Change of Seasons

If you ever do that, and upload it, you won't be able to upload anything else :lol

 

[donkey show]

Tenacious D - Wonderboy, Jesus Ranch, Greatest Song in the World, Fuck her Gently

 

[bounchfx]

my own song that I made for a school project, bg music for megaman x. it rules.

Thanks. It looks surprisingly good. Using the guitar to do everything might be a pain in the arse but the editor looks far more flexible (and has more depth)than I was expecting.

 

[ThatObviousUser]

Remix mode.

Oh. That is kind of sad. I'd probably never use it anyways, though...

 

[avatar299]

North American Scum-lcd soundsystem

 

[birdman]

I'll probably end up doing American Jesus by Bad Religion.

Good man. I'll be DLing that if I see it.

 

[impactpewpew]

Protest the Hero - Bloodmeat

or

Children of Bodom - Follow the Reaper (keyboard solos charted!)

hopefully it isn't too different from making custom GH2 charts. that was actually pretty fun if you knew how to play the song on the IRL geetar.

 

[DGRP]

Oingo Boingo - Little Girls

You convinced me.

Dead Man's Party here.

 

[Jonnyboy117]

If I had unlimited talent and time, I would create "Mountain Jam" by the Allman Bros. Band. It's 34 minutes long and instrumental.
