Guitar Hero: Metallica

Game: Guitar Hero: Metallica (Xbox 360, 2009)

A native Windows version of the Xbox 360 game, recompiled with the ReXGlue SDK and with a native Vulkan renderer. The README calls it a beta: songs have been played from start to finish with an Xbox 360 guitar, on guitar and bass parts, and sung with a PC microphone (new and experimental); drums have not been tested yet. It offers 60 fps as on the console, or 120, 144, 160, 165 or 240 if the monitor supports it, wide screens, Xbox 360 guitar support, achievements, and a launcher that installs the game from your ISO. v0.2.1 (October 29) is the latest of two releases. It states it is developed with the help of Claude; all 49 of its commits list it as a co-author.

You needYour own Guitar Hero: Metallica disc for Xbox 360 (the USA or Europe one), made into an ISO image; the launcher checks it and installs the game from it (about 7.2 GB). 64-bit Windows 10 or 11 and a graphics card with a Vulkan driver.
