  • Abstract:  While there's a fat “five” tagged to the name of this game, by no stretch of the imagination is this only the fifth Guitar Hero game to hit the market. Ignoring the mobile and handheld spin-offs, prior to Guitar Hero 5 there have been eight Guitar Her...

  • In 2009 it seems like we cant go a month without a Guitar Hero game being released. However, the grand daddy has returned and along with it some mega stars of music. The philosophy was no doubt to bring the best of the best in the music world into ...

  • A huge assortment of modes and features, massive playlist
  • Virtual Cobain is creepy, lacks the charm and personality of the original
  • Guitar Hero has been around forever and honestly, I was starting to get a little tired of formula. I think it says a lot that games like GH5 and Beatles Rock Band barely registered on my radar; truth be told, I’m way more excited for DJ Hero because...

  • Drop-in, drop-out adds a new dimension. Note tracking is sensible, HOPO timing is loose. Menu navigation is much improved, as are load times and graphics. DLC compatibility is steadily getting better. New controller looks to be a quality item, although it...
  • Vocals have definitely taken a back seat this time around. The set list is still fairly broad. Watching Kurt Cobain sing Du Hast is a little unsettling. Likewise, last time I checked, Shirely Manson wasnt a man.

  • Abstract:  It’s hard to believe that Guitar Hero has only been around since November 2005 when you look at the dozen or so titles it has already spawned. The franchise has grown so large it has already made a significant cultural impact around the world. Some hav...
