Call it Guitar Hero Smash Hits

Activision passed along box art, revealing a name change for its upcoming Guitar Hero product. Formerly Guitar Hero Greatest Hits, the new title for the game is apparently Guitar Hero Smash Hits. What’s the discernable difference in terms of content? None that we know of.

Guitar Hero Smash Hits promises 48 master tracks from Guitar Hero, Guitar Hero II, Guitar Hero Encore: Rocks the 80s and Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock. Guitar Hero Smash Hits includes some of the most famous Guitar Hero songs playable with guitar or for the first time as a full band.

DragonForce Invades Guitar Hero III

Rock gods DragonForce will ascend the virtual stage once again to unleash “Heroes of Our Time” — the debut single off their new album Ultra Beatdown — in a three-song track pack for Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock. The DragonForce track pack will be available on August 21, well in advance of the album release.

The three-song DragonForce Track Pack will be available for download on Xbox Live Marketplace and the PlayStation Store on August 21, 2008. For more information visit community.guitarhero.com.
