Guitar Hero II, the sequel to the critically-acclaimed Guitar Hero franchise,
features a brand new and expanded track list of over 60 songs, along with more
rock venues, characters, guitars, and play modes. Guitar Hero II introduces an
innovative co-op mode that will encourage a greater rock band experience by
providing the ability to either play the lead, and bass or rhythm guitar tracks.
A limited-edition Guitar Hero II t-shirt is now available for consumers that
