+ 5 for the Dylan joke
Eye of the Tiger may be the only song I could play, if I ever tried one of these music games….

For guitar I’m not sure “Painkiller” is hardest. I’d throw a vote in for Visions by Abnormality.

When you say hardest guitar, do you mean in real life or on the game? Because in real life Dream Theater would take every category :D
Also, I’m not sure you make any sense. Being you say Dream Theater has a harder bass line and Drum, and Painkiller only has the hardest guitar. Yet, you say it’s the hardest song for the band? Wouldn’t Dream Theater be if it had those categories? And Lebreaghs voice is not easy to mimic i’m sure.

Well, to be fair, one of the categories that Panic Attack tops out on is bass, which is never really hard for guitar hero/rock band games.
Plus Painkiller ranks above Panic Attack in vocals (4th and 10th respectively) and Painkiller is only 2nd in drums (with Panic Attack in first).
