Guitar Freaks V2 & DrumMania V2

Prior to 2006, there was a drought in the world of homeward GuitarFreaks games since 2002. As of today, there's been three new GF games released this year and we're looking forward to a regular schedule of releases henceforth. A total of 68 songs are featured in the game including "Blood And Thunder" from Mastodon, "Metal Queen" by Vanilla Ninja, "Saccharine Smile" per Donots, "Burnt" by Brad Holmes, "Day Dream" courtesy of Mutshiko Izumi, and many more. Gracious tracks from GFDMV3 include "Micro Fin" by Rotten Blotch, "Ring" by Kozo Nakamura, and "Guitar Drive" by Handsome Jet.

The interface is taken from the arcade version of GuitarFreaks with sweet and shiny bars, buttons, and sliders. The game is broken up into sections for GuitarFreaksV2, DrumManiaV2, and SessionV2 where up to three gamers may jam together. New entrants to the GuitarFreaks fold may hone their skills in the Training Mode which notches down the difficulty level while hardened axe handlers can test themselves in the Practice Mode. Once assured of your ability, head on over to the Arcade Mode and do your best to hit the cues with precision and dexterity.
