The nature of the band and its music is only further accentuated by the gritty look provided by the grainy filter being used in the game, similar to the one found in GTA IV: The Lost and Damned expansion. A particularly nice touch that I noticed had James Hetfield appropriately singing with one eye open during "Enter Sandman." The band themselves also look very accurate and fairly realistic, not looking anywhere near as cartoonish as the previous GH characters, including Aerosmith. As previously mentioned, the motion capturing provided by the band makes for very authentic-looking performances. GH Metallica is certainly not short on fan service, nor does it lack attention to detail.
Of course, there are plenty of other unlockables that will also help fans brush up on their Metallica knowledge such as videos of past performances, making of videos that show band members doing motion capture for the game, lyric sheets, and even photos. During these performances this information will continue to pop up at the bottom of the screen, adequately preparing all comers for future victories in the yet to be created Trivial Pursuit Metallica edition. While this will allow players to appreciate all of the accurate motion capture and cinematic flair that's been put into the title, it will also supply fans with interesting facts about all of the music, bands, and stories involved in the game's content. This will allow you to hit play, sit back, and enjoy the performance as you watch the song being played as though you were watching a concert. Once you've completed a song in the game's career mode, you will unlock the Metallifacts version of it. It will do so with one of the interesting new features in GH: Metallica which is simply called Metallifacts. While the same was true for GH: Aerosmith, GH: Metallica will actually do a much better job of explaining why these other songs are present. These other tracks will be comprised of songs from bands that have inspired, have been inspired by, or are just plain liked by Metallica. Much like the first band-centric GH title Guitar Hero: Aerosmith before it, GH: Metallica will contain a mix of music pulled directly from the band's own lengthy career as well as a helping of tracks from other bands. In a recent preview event hosted by Activision, we had the chance to get our hands on the game, so read on for our impressions. Thankfully, Metallica fans will finally have a chance to uncross their fingers, as Guitar Hero: Metallica will be hitting store shelves near the end of March. When their entire new Death Magnetic album was announced as downloadable content, playable in both GH III and GH: World Tour, it was hard to imagine or hope for a larger compilation of Metallica tunes in playable form. Guitar Hero III and Guitar Hero: World Tour seemingly got the ball rolling, each containing a single track from the band to whet fans' appetites. The first two titles were actually completely devoid of tracks from the historic and influential metal band. MaWhere's the Metallica? This has been a consistent question asked every time a Guitar Hero (GH) game has been released.
