First tracks from Guitar Hero: Rocks the 80's revealed

An alarming abundance of outrageous attitudes? Check. Enormous shoulder pads and poor color coordination? Check. Extravagantly large hair and excessively shiny accessories? Check. With this Summer's upcoming Guitar Hero expansion, Rocks the 80's, publisher Activision is dangerously close to delivering their first Japanese RPG. Thankfully, Opposable Thumbs reminds us that it's all about the music and lists the first seven tracks from the game's 30-strong list.

• I Wanna Rock (by Twisted Sister)

• I Ran (by Flock of Seagulls)

• Round and Round (as made famous by Ratt)

• I Want Candy (as made famous by Bow Wow Wow)

• Metal Health (as made famous by Quiet Riot)

• Holy Diver (as made famous by Dio)

• Heat Of The Moment (as made famous by Asia)

Given the lack of the "as made famous" bit, it seems original recordings are provided by everybody's favorite contorted siblings and maritime birds. Curiously, Opposable Thumbs notes that Guitar Hero: Rocks the 80's will be "exclusive" to the PlayStation 2. Does that imply exclusivity for the in-store version, with the Xbox 360 receiving the expansion in downloadable form? Why would Activision limit the game's reach? After all, the pricing of Guitar Hero's online tracks makes it pretty clear that the publisher enjoys making money.
