Guitar Hero 5
There are going to be some confused-ass parents this Christmas. You'd think there were half a dozen companies releasing games, not TWO.
Also, hey, you think they'll patch GH:WT and GH:M to allow the songs to export so they can all be played on GH5? Haha just kidding.
Would prefer the Battlestar version of All Along The Watchtower, might actually give this game a second thought then :P [more]
Hell. Yes.
I am a huge BSG nerd, and I'd buy a Guitar Hero just for that song. Yes - I'd spend a goddamn fortune on plastic instruments just for one stinking song. I am that big of a geek.
Seriously, Bob Dylan's version of Watchtower? I'm a Dylan fan, and even I'd rather see Hendrix version.
Does anyone still care about this series? Let it die, I'm sick of podcast time going to music games and track packs that have grown so stale.
I am starting to care less and less. I can already see the Rhythm Based games thing becoming over saturated.
The only plus so far is the ability for multiple instruments of the same type. Bands like Iron Maiden and Metallica have more than one guitar player and being able to play with up to four guitar parts would be a great feature. Not being able to play rhythm on GH Metallica was my biggest problem with that game, especially given the fact that it was possible in previous GH outings.
So far I've yet to see GH match RB for content and style. GH seems to feel the useless song studio and fret pad were enough to offer fans in lieu of weekly songs. And making a band-focused game every 6 months now seems their plan, even though those games can't work with DLC from the main game without specific exceptions. I liked the Metallica game, mainly because it offered some great songs and didn't require any new hardware. But until thay do a KISS or Iron Maiden game, I don't see myself buying another GH.
This all actually sounds pretty cool, i played gh world tour and it kinda sucked compared to rb2, but mettalica looked like it could be better with the new modes and xpert + shit. I feel like mettalica was what world tour should have been u know? But if they include the additions to mettalica, and sort out the drum fills, with this new stuff it could be a great game.
Dude. I was feeling good about the soundtrack, then I saw Neversoft's fatal mistake. Dylan's All Along The Watchtower? Not Hendrix's cover? Dude. How could they do that to us? That's freaking insulting.
A-Punk is great, but no part of the song, with the exception of singing, seems like it would be particularly interesting in Guitar Hero.
They really need to chill the hell out with the Guitar Hero series. I stopped following it when they introduced all of the instruments because it was just too expensive. Now it seems like they're pumping out sequels left and right.
Cool, but really, they don't need to make yearly releases for these all the time. Just keep using DLC, and only bring out a new game if it adds something to the gameplay. Only thing I'll give them for is that they got the better controllers, other than that, I'll stick with Rock Band.
There stretching out this series way to far... Fuck sakes, they need to put this series to bed and work on a new IP, I am tired of the same game coming out every year (Call of duty however I'll let it do this, it is somewhat different every year), but Guitar Hero? Its the same thing, just some new modes and songs, which you could do on music packs on the PSN and Marketplace, Activision, please stop this madness.
