Hacked Guitar Hero II demo brings out more songs

Ah, the wonders of the Internet. It gives anyone with a little bit of technological know-how the chance to crack open secrets that were never before seen or heard by people. For some, it means solving the Da Vinci code. For others, it's the chance to unlock additional tracks on RedOctane's Guitar Hero II demo.

Yes, you string maniacs. Over at the Score Hero forums, an enterprising rocker has built a tool to exchange one of the arranged demo songs for another one in the massive GH2 demo. You might end up playing a song that doesn't mesh with the stage it's on, but still, that's a new song to practice on!

So, what do you get for your troubles? Here's the list straight from their forums:

• "Who was in my Room..." -> "Heart-Shaped Box"
• "Psychobilly Freakout" -> "Sweet Child o' Mine"
• "War Pigs" -> "Freebird"
• "You Really Got Me" -> "Jessica"
• "Strutter" -> "Crazy on You"
• "John the Fisherman" -> "Killing in the Name of"
• "YYZ" (unchanged)
• "Shout at the Devil" -> "Laid to Rest"
• "Trippin' on a Hole..." -> "Beast and the Harlot"
• "Madhouse" -> "Trogdor"

On the bright side, you get to play Trogdor before anyone else does. That's just completely freaking awesome. Rock on, my fellow gamers, and enjoy the video that comes along as a bonus track on this article, courtesy of info from Kotaku.
