Entire Guitar Hero Metallica Song List Revealed

It's not often we get to put up a link to Metallica's website, but that's our source for this news item.  We'd previously reported a rumored list of songs for the upcoming Metallica-centric Guitar hero title, but now we have it straight from the horses mouth.  If you like Metallica, you'd like the list.  I'm a fan, and I'll probably be picking it up at some point, as my love for "Battery" is greater than my dislike for giving Activision my money.  Also, "Fuel" is one of the songs, and my son, as a toddler, sang that song like this: "Gimme food, gimme fries, gimme something on the side!!"  I feel that memory is funny enough that I just have to pick that same song up in rhythm game form! 

An interesting bonus is that the "Death Magnetic" DLC for Guitar Hero III and World Tour will also be compatible with Guitar Hero Metallica.  That's a nice surprise and a step in the right direction, for sure.  Compatibility of DLC between titles is one thing Rock Band has done better, and it's good to see that the Guitar hero crew might be seeing the light.

The full setlist (and subject to change disclaimer) is after the break...
