The first installment of Guitar Hero was an almost instant hit. And one of the main reasons for this was the song list. It was full of amazing classic songs, as well as newer songs. It appealed to such a wide selection of gamers, it was guarenteed success. Some of my personal favorites on the Guitar Hero 1 Song list include Queen, Boston, and Sum 41.
