Ever since we heard about Rock Band, we were worried about the pricing.

To celebrate the launch of Guitar Hero II in the states, 5 Guitar Hero II champions will be battling it out and showing off their shredding skills in front of KISS member Gene Simmons.

Those of an American nature will have been air-guitar’ing for joy at the recent Activision announcement that Guitar Hero II will be hitting the Xbox 360 on the 3rd of April.

In an interview with IGN, Guitar Hero II’s associate producer Ted Lange has said that Red Octane plan to release a wireless Xbox 360 X-Plorer "rather shortly".

The upcoming Guitar Hero II, which sees you jamming out to your favorite rock tunes, will not feature online multiplayer over Xbox Live, at least not from day one....

Red Octane, developers of 360-bound Guitar Hero II, have today announced the official tracklist for the game.

Sadly, when Guitar Hero II is released for the Xbox 360 in 2007, gamers will not be able to explore their room with their rocking, because RedOctane is not releasing a wireless version of their X-Plorer guitar controller.

An "in the know" anonymous source has told Gamer Andy that Red Octane are not only hard at work on Guitar Hero II, but are also developing a version of the game for Xbox 360.
