Developer Red Octane has announced the official track list for the upcoming guitar star simulator, so you can start air practicing right now. The list has some obvious classics that most people were expecting, but there may be additional songs not on the list but available for download once the game launches.
A slow version of "Yankee Doodle" is nowhere to be found on the list, so I don't expect to earn even one single gamer point. I might be willing to pay a "designated player" to earn the achievements for me. Then again, I could just play Guitar Hero II for the fun of it.
