For those considering importing songs from previous Guitar Hero games i.e. World Tour and Smash Hits, proceed with caution. While Activision has already stated that more songs will become available for import as soon as the licensing hurdles are cleared, be sure to take a look at the songs that can be imported as only 35 of the 85 tracks on-disc for World Tour can be imported and only half of Smash Hits will make the jump into Guitar Hero 5 as of yet. The import list can be seen below.
