Guitar Hero: Metallica from Activision for the Sony PS3 largely borrows from the novelties introduced in Guitar Hero: World Tour, with band career modes for single or multiple players with a storyline drawn as a cartoon, competitive modes online, and the possibility to play with different instruments such as a regular guitar, a bass guitar, drums, and doing the vocals.

The storyline describes how a band wants to follow in the footsteps of the Metallica and become a leading act on their tour. This edition adds an Expert+ difficulty mode where players need to drum using a second bass pedal to mimic the playing style of Lars Ulrich, the drummer of the band. The members also did motion capture sessions for the avatars in the game.

Features:

• Follow Metallica on a tour through their career while playing their greatest hits.
• Play 28 Metallica songs and 21 songs by artists that influenced their career.
• Grab your friends and make up the entire band with guitars, drums, and vocals.
• Expert Plus difficult lets you plug in a second bass pedal.
• Enter the Music Studio to create your own music that you can share with others.
