    God these guys know how to make money on somebody elses work!

    What next?  Drum Hero, Bass Hero, Piano Hero..?  Boy Band Hero followed by Girl Band Hero?

    With DLC every week available on the PSN these guys are gonna make serious money.  Dr Evil, serious money.

    Oh well if people are stupid enough to make it, stupid people will buy it.

    Around the world rules. But I don't generally Vs. songs, so this list is a fail for me.

    So let me get this straight...everyone's angry about Cobain being in GH5...but no one cares that this abomination of a game is ruining Queen songs by mixing them with the worst "style" of "music"? (i use both those terms loosely to describe rap...)   Queen should be suing someone for taking their awesome songs and destroying them.

    ignoring Extreme metal & power metal is really disappointing

    What about Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger!? Easily the duo's best song. Queen and Daft Punk are amazing... I just don't about the idea of mixing the two. Still, it'd be amazing to hear an amalgamation of their respective brilliant styles. Certain aspects will go well together. Also, you spelt "that" wrong. Do you guys not proofread? God, you're almost as bad a Mike Harradence!

    @5 how about u copy and paste 'stevies a moron' about 500 times, its a class song and i dont know how the game will turn out but if daft punk are mixing the songs themselves then they should be class
