    Guitar Hero 5

    Game » consists of 13 releases. Released Sep 01, 2009

    The fifth game in the core Guitar Hero franchise, and the third in the series from Activision and Neversoft. Though the game goes by the Guitar Hero moniker, it features full-band gameplay like its predecessor, Guitar Hero World Tour.

    Why don't the guitarists have guitar straps?

    The guitars just hang in mid air. Was it too expensive to have someone code the straps in?

    Don't worry, more sequels will come in and maybe they'll pull you in with customizable guitar straps this time as well as their gradually evolutionary game-play with each new iteration in the series.

    I think GSE (that's Guitar Strap Engine) is a really complicated and intricate tool.

    Because the Guitar Hero franchise is maintained by a bunch of non-musicians.

    Real guitar heroes don't even use the guitar straps. I never have, never will. Also, standing is for guitar losers.

    It's hardly the end of the world. And not all guitarists use straps.

    Because being able to realistically render a thin strap with all that movement is hard. And, who cares?

    I don't know, may the same reason why some trapeze artists dont use a net. No safety net is hardcore.
