Tapulous presents: Metallica Revenge by Maria
October 27th, 2009
NOT SAD, BUT TRUE: METALLICA REVENGE IS HERE!
Who?!! METALLICA
WHAT?!!! FUEL from the album “Reload”
The world has officially gone on high alert. Meteorologists and seismologists around the globe have got their shorts in a bunch. For weeks they’ve been tracking a mysterious, growing storm, an ever-intensifying rumbling and shaking emanating from the San Francisco Bay Area. They cried out, “What could be the cause of this unholy convergence of pure power?”
Now the answer can be revealed: METALLICA REVENGE.
From the combined forces of TAPULOUS, the makers of the chart-topping app Tap Tap Revenge 3, and METALLICA, the undisputed kings of ass kicking, comes METALLICA REVENGE, the hardest-rocking, most knuckle-cracking game for the iPhone/iPod Touch to date. This is not your grandma’s TTR, and it’s hitting you dead on with a barrage of new features…
- 10 SONGS: Enter Sandman, Sad But True, One, Seek and Destroy, For Whom the Bell Tolls, King Nothing, Some Kind of Monster, Master of Puppets, All Nightmare Long, and Fuel. POW!
- 3 MODES: Face off P2P in BLUETOOTH BATTLE MODE, and launch crazy new weapons like Ink Splatter, Tiny Tappers, and Fade To Black. There’s the solo ARCADE MODE, where your radar will warn you of incoming bombs, and you can earn shields and 16x points. Or CAREER MODE, where you rack up mad points, but with no attacks.
- VISUALS AND THEMES: Our Tapulous Programming Artists (TPA’s) have perfectly captured the dark, heavy essence of the band through special graphics and design. Plus Tap Experts will love the 4 & 5 RAIL EXTREME LANDSCAPE MODE!!
- MUCH MORE: A Metallica feed displays band news, challenges, and public battles. Challenge your friends to beat your Metallica score. Full support for iPod Touch. And much more…
We have been accused so many times of being a master of puppets, and creating Tap Tap Revenge for the sole purpose of building an army of zombie-gamers. To show we are NOT your overlords, and are merely trying to give you a good time, we are giving away Metallica’s “FUEL” ABSOLUTELY FREE! (in TTR3) Get FUEL now! Once you’ve been completely blown away, check out METALLICA REVENGE, and TAP ‘EM ALL!
THE MONSTER METALLICA REVENGE CONTEST – TAP AND DESTROY!
When we unleashed our programmers on METALLICA REVENGE, our most-requested app yet, we had 4 simple instructions: Bigger. Harder. Darker. Heavier. They delivered.
When we went upstairs to the Contest Department, we tweaked the instructions a bit: Bigger. Massive-er. Gigantic-er. And Las Vegas-er. They got together with the band, and HOT DOG, did everyone deliver! In partnership with Metallica, we are excited to announce our most epic contest yet, the MONSTER METALLICA REVENGE CONTEST!
First, here’s what YOU gotta do: Download and play Metallica Revenge NOW for your iPhone or iPod Touch. Each score you submit to the global leaderboard for any song in Metallica Revenge counts as a single entry. You can submit as many scores as you want, on any song you want — as long as you COMPLETE THE WHOLE SONG before you send the score. We wanted to award bonus points for playing one-handed while throwing the goat with the other, but couldn’t figure out how to do it.
Now, here’s what METALLICA AND TAPULOUS are gonna do:
At the end of each day, we’ll put all entries submitted that day into Lars’ kick drum, and draw out 1 DAILY PRIZE: A vinyl edition of Death Magnetic, and a free membership in Metallica’s Met Club, which includes a printed autographed band photo, personalized Metclub membership card, official Metclub tshirt, four issues of “So What!” magazine, access to Metclub.com, exclusive contests, and the opportunity for members-only shows.
At end of the contest, we’ll put ALL the entries submitted for the entire duration of the contest into the giant Tapulous Hopper, and draw out the winner of ONE GRAND PRIZE: TWO TICKETS to Metallica’s World Magnetic Tour Show in LAS VEGAS on December 5th, 2009, a MEET AND GREET with the band, plus round-trip air, hotel and ground transportation to the show!
The more you entries you have, the better your chances. We implore you: win this one at all costs. Ignore your friends and family. Put your phone in airplane mode, close the blinds, and TAP THE LIGHTNING! Literally, nothing else matters…

I can’t find it when i browse the app store on my iPhone, I tried searching for “Tapulous”, “metallica” and “tap tap”, neither works. The link from within TTR3 doesn’t work either.
The link from this blog post works in the PC iTunes store though, and I managed to get the game that way (downloading to PC and syncing phone)
Just thought you should know.
Oh, and why don’t I get any experience of coins from “fuel” in TTR3? The high score list doesn’t seem to work either.
October 27th, 2009
A video would be really nice …
October 27th, 2009
I can’t find it on the app store eather, but this is because it isn’t released on every country… And VERY dissapointed in tapulous right now, cause i’m a very big fan of both Metallica as the tap tap revenge series!
So i checked for the game on the app store, but it wasn’t there. I changed my location to the united states, and there it was!!!
So please please please tapulous, release this game in every country like you did with the previous ones…
P.s. I live in belgium.
October 27th, 2009
OMG!! IMMA THE FIRST PERSON TO PLAY THAT FREE TRACK!!
October 27th, 2009
@Sam Verhaegen:
Give it some time mate. I was checking my country’s iTunes store (Singapore) since I read about the release from Get Satisfaction and news sites on Google some 6 hours ago. But I never saw any Metallica Revenge until just about 15 or so minutes ago.
Reading a post from Get Satisfaction, Australia’s iTunes store has also just made it available only a few minutes ago too, so the key is patience. You will see it soon in your country’s iTunes store.
October 27th, 2009
Wow the 4 lane track is really nice, this feels like a new milestone completed for tapulous, now that 4 lanes portrait has been implemented, we are sure to see more in the future!
Go tapulous
October 27th, 2009
Just a question about something i heard recently,
Were the fall out boy songs in extreme redone? If thats the case ill be immediately redownloading
October 27th, 2009
I think there is a bug in free track ‘Fuel’ on TTR3. Second tap zone(from left) is not working well with two taps. When I tap first and second tap at once many times, second tap always missed taps. I don’t know how it works with Metallica Revenge, but it is some kind of irritating.
October 27th, 2009
I like what you’ve done with fuel on TTR3….
But what was up with the wolfmother banner that was up for a while and claimed that was the free track of the week?
Not complaining, it’s just weird to have download two free tracks of the week in the space of a couple of hours hehe
I like it!
October 27th, 2009
OMG! Tapulous! YOU READ MY EMAIL! YOU EVEN ADDED THE SONGS I
LOVE!!!!
I LOVE YOU GUYS SO MUCH!!! YOU GUYS ROCK THE WHOLE UNIVERSE!!! PLZ HAVE THIS ALSO AVAILABLE AS TTR3 INTEGRATION SO WE CAN ROCK OUT THERE TOO!!
ONCE AGAIN! THANKS!!!!!!!!!
October 27th, 2009
i hope you will soon release a similar app with linkin park songs
please do coz thy r d best just like u
October 27th, 2009
The is the revenge all the people were waiting for!
Could you add The Unforgiven III to the tracklist?
I’d love to!
October 27th, 2009
YES! FINALLY METALLICA IN TAP TAP!
October 27th, 2009
Will I be able to import the tracks into Tap Tap Revenge 3?
This game ROCKS! Now, I want to use the songs in the game to earn some achievement points and coins….
October 27th, 2009
Yes! I just finished it playing the whole game…*pant*
I really love the 5 rail style, that gave me some action. I really like how Seek and Destroy is similar to the Guitar Hero Metallica version on my 360. I find it cool, and the solos are intense! We need more songs!
Please Tapulous have like a 6 Track Pack or even 12 Track Pack available to purchase on TTR3! We really want MOAR!
October 27th, 2009
WOW! You guys got Nine Inch Nails, Lady Gaga, Weezer, Coldplay, Dave Mathews Band, and Now Metallica????? Thats WAY better than what Rockband is doing. Close To Guitar Hero. All you need now is U2! Or The Beatles!
I don’t have TTR3 yet…
You Guys do know that Apple made Free games allow In-App purchases. Look At Rolando 2 Chapter 1. You can by the rest of the chapters in game.
October 27th, 2009
I really hope this means that being able to play friends through bluetooth will be coming to TTR3 soon
October 27th, 2009
@Tapulous
Two free tracks in one week? Awwwweeeeesssoooommmmeeeeee!!!!!! I guess ALOT of people are happy with finnaly getting their metallicarevenge fix! Will we get bluetooth intergration in ttr3 as well? All I want to do is battle my little brother! And last but not least when will I see “Weird Al” Yankovic Revenge or Trans-Siberian Orchestra Revenge? Just would like to know, Thanks for another great ttrevenge week!
October 27th, 2009
We are glad you guys like it!! Due to complexities in the Metallica theme they can’t be imported quite yet… Expect an update soon to allow full integration!
October 27th, 2009
OH, Metallica Revenge… i mean, i dont like them and wont buy it but the screenshots look nice^^ Now all we need is Riddim Ribbon…
October 27th, 2009
This looks impressive. I don’t want to complain, I really don’t, but I’ve bought an app that is $5.00, has an option of 5 or 3 rails, and it has a lot more music than just Metallica. But I wanna compliment you guys on having 2 NEW free themed songs released on the Tap Tap Store in the past 2 days! Good Job! I really appreciate that!
Also, even though I like other music apps more, I play this one the most =)
October 27th, 2009
@Ed
Oh great! I wondered why it didn’t give me any Tapulous coins when I played the song in ttr3! Will you all be adding Bluetooth support in ttr3 this next update? You guys have done a great job on this app and look forward to many more great apps! May “Weird Al” Yankovic Revenge and TSO Revenge come sooner rather than latter!
October 27th, 2009
When do you think we’ll be able to import?
October 27th, 2009
So they actually give people the Metallica Revenge they’ve been requesting forever…and throw in a crappy tracklisting…of all the Metallica song they choose the most obvious ones…
October 27th, 2009
@Cheddar17 what app are you talking about?
October 27th, 2009
@Steven
Probably Beat Rider but that app stinks!
October 27th, 2009
What happened to the shake arrows? The instructions mention them, but I haven’t seen them in career mode. Also, is there any reason why the hard mode version of One doesn’t have anything more than eighth notes in the “solo,” or why For Who the Bell Tolls only exists on medium. Are these level-restricted songs due to some contractual obligation, or was that a design preference? Otherwise it’s a good game, but just seems half-baked in way.
October 27th, 2009
I love metallica but I would love to see like more godsmack or three days grace would be Kool
October 27th, 2009
Why can’t the Metallica song be played in landscape mode in TTR3?
The 4 rails in portrait mode is very awkward. my thumbs get caught together too much when you have double taps on the far right side. it’s pretty uncomfortable. TTR3 has no landscape mode songs. I think this would have been a nice option for this song.
October 28th, 2009
Hi Tap Tap
Would it be possible if u could launch a tap tap application like Songs from linkin park, Black Eyed Peas, BackStreet Boys, etc???
That would be very nce.
October 28th, 2009
Yay
I finally got Tap Tap Revenge 3 And Metallica Revenge!!
AWESOME!! You guys are the best XD
October 28th, 2009
and a legal resident of one of the 50 United States
Fuck you, Tapulous. Waste of money. I love Metallica (my favourite band), but I hate this “US only” bullshit. Give other countries some love!
I missed my chance to go to the concerts in the UK, but it would be amazing to go to the Las Vegas show AND do a meet and greet!
Come on, Tapulous. Step it up.
October 28th, 2009
Hey as much as you despise the contest rules, could i ask of you not to use profanity?
Thanks
October 28th, 2009
@f you Tapulos
Yes please don’t use profanity on here we try to keep it cleen for Tapulous sake! Plus there are usually only like 50 of us that post here regualy so it’s insulting when people like you do that! I gyou have a problem send Tapulous an email!
October 28th, 2009
@steven
You can’t play landscape because that’s actually the hard version of the song. All hard songs have four rails and none are landscape mode. The only landscape songs are on expert, and they have 5 rails.
October 28th, 2009
Wow guys looks really amazing and loving the gameplay! 5 rows is way cool as is the P2P using Bluetooth!
Rock On Tapulous!
October 28th, 2009
Metallica Revenge kicked my a$$,but then I went back and kicked DMB’s a$$, taking revenge on Two Step Boss with arrows by getting ~1735k and #8 global (Grubjelly nickname).
October 28th, 2009
Would’ve been about 20k higher if not for the “20% battery remaining” message appearing right in the middle of the 2 hold lines near the end. I tried pressing the “resume” button without letting go of the holds, but it wouldn’t register without letting go of them and losing the streak. Not that anyone cares
October 29th, 2009
can we get a track list???
October 29th, 2009
Okay, this is crazy, don’t buy this until there’s an update. I’m really sorry Tapulous, but all these bugs make the game suck.
October 29th, 2009
When today will tapulous add new track packs and a new song…?
October 29th, 2009
@bigg
Becauseetalica Revenge was released Tusedayyhey released the track early. The track is “New Moon Rising” by Wolfmother you can download it in ttr3 with the theme and in ttr2 without the theme. This week there are still 3 featured tracks so that’s awesome!
October 29th, 2009
#9 for the moment on Fuel extreme (Grubjelly). Now I can rest peacefully, no matter how things turn out. The trick was to save those bonus streak activators for the right moment:P
October 29th, 2009
is the app free
???
October 29th, 2009
@Gabriel
No, Metallica Revenge is $4.99 (U.S.) and Tap Tap Revenge 3 is $.99 (U.S.).

hey does anyone know when riddim ribbon is commin out…they said october but its already then end of oct. did they change the release date?
October 30th, 2009
@JFG92
It was probably changed to this Tuesday or later. Probably latter since we know now that they were working on Metallica Revenge. But then again Bart said at the Apple Announcement it would be October so you never know.
October 30th, 2009
@Shivam
Oh I “vatched” your video amd “vit” is so retarded! Even Tapulous “veft” you a note “vhat” said “vhey” can track “vou”! (WORK ON THE ENGLISH, no offence!) And now they have Modderators so they can do pretty much anything to your account they want! They can even get a wire tap via police warant so they can watch those video chats you host! (If they wanted to prosocute) The fact is is that while TTR3 is “More Fun, More Social” it’s also more aggressive at keeping the game cleen and fair! Don’t mess with them because modderators can also ban your device even if it’s jailbroken and once it’s done it can’t be undone! Watch out and keep it fair! 6 months ago when I started playing this game I stunk and now I’m one of the top 50 players! (not in points or coins but in high scores) Play fair and you too can become a Tap Tap Legend!
October 30th, 2009
@ trekluver
dude i Dont care if thy ban me. N yea i was already in d top 50 of most of d tracks tht i playd before d hacking thing

October 31st, 2009
haha, cant even spell my name properly when its right infront of you
October 31st, 2009
@shivam
I have hacked but only for my benefit and no one elses detrament! I’ve done things like hack into root file systems on PC’s and other things I you have no buisness knowing! The fact is is that anyone who would want to cheat and let other people not be able to make a good score is sick! Tapulous I’m sure is continuously tracking your activity and that’s precious time they could be getting “Weird Al” Yankovic or TSO tracks in ttr3! Cool it dude because they will find you and then you won’t be able to play the game or anything. They can even get YouTube to suspend your videos if they want to. GET A LIFE AND HACK SOMETHING ELSE WORTH HACKING!
October 31st, 2009
Thnxxxx
but tht is nt scary at all
N @micer
m typing frm my iphone
so m makin these mistakes
u understand loserrrr
October 31st, 2009
Lol i type from iphone too, and i dont make such mistakes, stop blaming your iphone for your fat fingers.
October 31st, 2009
Wait a minute…Death Magnetic…on vinyl!?!? Is that supposed to be some ancient form of audio storage or something? What, they press these flat pancakes out of plastic and etch them with the waveform so someone who traces it with a needle or something can recreate the sound impressed within it? What are we supposed to do with them if we win, fling them at zombies?! Well, it is Halloween…or maybe scratch out some phat beats on our momma’s turntables?!
If I win, which I won’t, it’s getting mounted on the wall right next to the Dark Side of the Moon album sleeve. It’s better than a painting because it’s cheap!

1 problem though…..is it 3.0 only?
November 1st, 2009
how about green day revenge? That would be cool
November 1st, 2009
How do you send a score?
November 1st, 2009
@Merry_man a Green Day Revenge would be awesome!!! We could tap to wake me up when september ends, american idiot, boulevard of broken dreams, etc!
November 1st, 2009
Where is Riddim Ribbon tapulous? We were told by Bart that it would be last month….. fail

November 2nd, 2009
Should be Tapulous presents: Riddim Ribbon…. as in it should have been released before Metallica Revenge. Argh, the waiting is annoying…… where is riddim ribbon???????????????
November 2nd, 2009
Shivam, you’re a fool. First of all, you’re not hacking. You’re taking advantage of an in-game glitch that requires no knowledge or skill to do. It’s not like you hacked into the tapulous servers and changed your scores around, or created a code/cheat for the game with your own brain to modify the game. You simply did nothing more than press a button, wait for about 3 minutes, then press another button.
November 2nd, 2009
Love it! Who knows when the contest ends?
November 2nd, 2009
riddim ribbon is in the appstore and it is freaking awesome!!!!
November 2nd, 2009
Really?

Nothing Else Matters on tap tap revenge!!!!
November 3rd, 2009
@krohn7master
Still I wouldn’t mind knowing what it is… I’m not dishonest! It’s so stupid that he’d do that! I saw Tapulous’ comment on YouTube! Funny!
November 3rd, 2009
Trek, what comment was that about? I think it got removed. Mind sharing, since the sore-loser-so-i-will-hack shivam deleted the comment
November 4th, 2009
@Micer
He must have but they left one on his video about that they could track him and determin why he was getting thoue scores. Secound thought I don’t't want to know the bug because if I do then it can’t benefit me in any way, for me that’s dishonest.
November 4th, 2009
Hope we get an update about Riddim Ribbon soon, Tapulous!
November 4th, 2009
Yea, in my eyes, hackers are quite at the low end of the players categories, at least if he hacks and inform the company about it for fixing, then its decent, yet he scams other people for something that is already known. That sickens me
November 5th, 2009
will we finally get track packs today? well its ttt!
November 5th, 2009
I really loved your Tap Tap collection. But this one,, i would love to purchase it too but i only have 2.2.1 firmware. Please do an alternative for non-3.0 firmware users. We would love to play TTR3 and Metallica but we just don’t have another extra $9 for paying a software upgrade.
SO PLEASE DO SOMETHING FOR US 2.2.1 FIRMWARE USERS TO BE ABLE TO BUY THE TWO LATEST TAP TAP. PLEASE….
November 5th, 2009
I am so annoyed that not only did they bring out bluetooth multiplayer on metallica before ttr3 but ALSO didn’t make a wifi multiplayer on LAN. Tapulous, you just lost loads of customers by ruling out itouch 1Gs. And I know there are more 1Gs than 2Gs or 3Gs.
PS. Riddim Ribbon is gonna be awesome!
November 6th, 2009
How come we never hear about winners anymore? Where is the person going: OMG I won I’m going to Vegas!!!!!!!!?
November 8th, 2009
Why isn’t this available for TTR 2.x users?
November 13th, 2009
Hey, i got a querie about tap tap revenge Metallica.
Whenever i get into the app, for some reason it plays the music but then freezes on the starting black hill with the title at the top.
December 9th, 2009
I was using the game fine, but now when i press to play a song, i get back to springboard and the app crashes, is there a way to solve this problem? I ve tryied to reinstall but it didnt work. Thx
December 14th, 2009
WTF……………i just bought Tap TapMetallica thinking it will have a lot of songs espacially For Whom The BellsToll,but no instead it has onlyone F****n song,can u guys fix it or give me a refund cause it says it comes with some songs like about 10 or 13but on mine it only has 1
December 18th, 2009
Well, I’m impressed. Now all they need to do is:
1. Make a daft punk special ttr
2. Put more daft punk songs on ttr3
3. Update the rest of the tap tap versions with bluetooth multiplayer
4. Update tap tap dance with some of justice’s songs
December 26th, 2009
How do you import ttm to ttr3? I can’t find it for the life of me
December 26th, 2009
I downloaded Tap Tap Metallica and the menu is there for about 3 seconds while it connects, then it disappears??
January 3rd, 2010
“Hey, i got a querie about tap tap revenge Metallica.

Hey this happened to me too, wtf???
i used to play it regularly and suddenly that black screen with the title (>_<)

March 7th, 2010
