Guitar Hero is a series of video games formerly developed by Harmonix that enables players to play along to well-known rock songs using a guitar-shaped controller. The CEO of Harmonix, Alex Rigopulos, contacted The Brothers Chaps and asked if they would be willing to include a Homestar Runner song as a bonus track on Guitar Hero II (see Georgia Tech - 26 Apr 2007). Following the success of Guitar Hero II, Harmonix developed Guitar Hero Encore: Rocks the 80s and once again used a Homestar Runner song as part of the game's set list. Another sequel in the series, Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock is expected to be released in the fall of 2007, but no Homestar Runner songs are confirmed to be on the set list, presumably because the game is being developed by Neversoft rather than Harmonix.
Guitar Hero II
The Trogdor song from
the Strong Bad Email
'dragon' was actually an
afterthought that was
added at the last minute.
Mike was finishing up
the cartoon and Matt
suddenly started
screaming the chorus
while making eggs.
The loading screen for the song displays what is apparently advice on playing the song from Strong Bad:
"For squeadlies, mash on the trembalo. For meadlies, tone up on your chord surpassers. Oh, and I'm awesome."
This advice is based on Strong Bad's guitar terminology from guitar.
Guitar Hero Encore: Rocks the 80s
Because It's Midnite is featured as an "encore" song in Guitar Hero Encore: Rocks the 80s.
The Loading screen for the song readsWhile on tour,
Limozeen used to
demand leather
sheets from the
hotels they stayed
at until the rashes
and animal rights
activists became a
problem.
