Guitar Hero II on Xbox 360 comes complete with a killer soundtrack of over 70 songs and the revolutionary X-Plorer Guitar Controller. Players choose from a wild group of rockers and jam at concert venues that grow in size as their rock career progresses. They can play with a friend and shred riffs cooperatively, or go head-to-head in multiplayer modes like Pro Face-Off.
With Xbox Live, players can grab new songs, themes, and picture packs. They can also download exclusive songs and check where they rank on the Guitar Hero II leaderboard.
