Your Song Featured in Guitar Hero II 31
JamesO writes "RedOctane has launched a competition in which budding musicians can get a song featured in Guitar Hero II." From the article: "To enter simply submit your song at beaguitarhero.com before 11:59 p.m. PST on June 30, 2006. There are a few rules that each entered song must adhere to though. The song must be from independent artists, must be an original piece, and must fall under the 'hard rock' or 'heavy metal' genre. The track must also feature a lead guitar. The winner will get their song featured in Guitar Hero II, plus will be eligible for additional publicity through the game's launch promotion." The winner also gets a kickass set of prizes, including a guitar, drumset, and wah pedal.

That isn't anything netcat couldn't fix...
bash$ for host in $(function count() { i=0; while [ $i -lt 255 ]; do i=$(($i+1)); echo $i; done }; for num in `count` ; do for num1 in `count`; do for num2 in `count`; do for num3 in `count`; do echo "$num.$num1.$num2.$num3"; done; done ; done ; done); do nc $host 80 audio.au ; done
I used port 80 as an example, but perhaps you can think of more interesting ports

Maybe there are people out there who make music solely because they enjoy making music, and hearing their song in ANY sort of widely distributed format would be pretty sweet. I know I'd sure love to see a picture I took featured in a calendar at my local supermarket, even if I never got a cent for it.

Maybe we Revolution owners want to play Guitar Hero too.
Even the GameCube standard controller would work [jk0.org] for at least a 3-key game such as Konami's Guitar Freaks.

They did this for the first game too. (Score:3, Insightful)
It's really a win-win-win situation. Harmonix gets some cool songs free, you get to play kickass songs you've never heard, and indie artists you've _never_ heard of get some publicity. There were a good dozen songs by Boston-area indy bands that you could unlock in the first game, that were totally separate from the main set of songs you had to play through to advance -- and half of those bands included Harmonix staff members.
