Perhaps Guitar Hero 5’s on-the-fly drop-in-drop-out difficulty changing gameplay has got you interested in the title. Perhaps you’re just a glutton for pretending to play music with a plastic instrument. Perhaps you are so excited that you’ve been dying for more information.

In that case, you’ll want to know the game now has a release date of September 1, 2009.

In that case, you’ll want to see a list of every band that will be included on the release. To your curiosity, I can provide. It is actually a fantastic looking list, and a beast to boot. 84 bands will be available for your jamming joy.

    So there is 84 Bands in the game. I guess that means there is potentially more than 84 songs included in the game as well.

    I’ll have to see the full track list first but this game is looking better as we get closer to launch. It’s not just Guitar Hero with a new track list. It’s added features, though we’ll have to see if these features are actually useful.
