It’s been nearly a decade since the release of the last Guitar Hero game. Is time running out for Guitar Hero, or are we closer than ever to the long-awaited reunion tour on the PS5 and Xbox Series X? As it turns out, we might soon see the return of a rock giant — at least, if modern gaming trends are to be trusted.
I just don’t see this being nearly as popular as it was back in the day. These kids are way too attached to phones and tablets to care about plastic guitars and drums. Would be cool if it did return but I just don’t see hype for it like the good old days of gaming.
Or....in the modern era, it could support real electric guitars and drum sets...?
I think we can do better than the buttons at this point
Hmmm maybe you are correct. Unfortunately. Also, there is the VR rhythm games already in the wide which are very popular. But back in those days we only had gutar hero.
I would gladly buy a guitar hero collection or just guitar hero 2 again on series X or ps5.
Most likely answer is both platforms because why leave out 60-70 million platform gamers
These groundbreaking video games changed gaming forever and drew in scores of fans in the process.
The Guitar Hero franchise died in the wake of Activision's lust for Call of Duty, but we should be dusting off those plastic guitars for a new Guitar Hero game.
Guitar Hero was good. The problem was Activision started creating many versions. Guitar Hero had the every one year cycle like COD and people felt they were being robbed.
It was even worse then that. My roommate and I were big into rock band. Had a concert sized sound system for it in the shop. Both rock band and guitar hero were doing a yearly release yeah, but then also doing song packs and band packs every other week almost at one point. AND releasing them on physical disc. Before we stopped we had litterely dozens of discs for different songs and bands. They just never stopped coming out. People can only handle buying so much for 1 game.
Why in the hell would one want to spend time to learn a button mashing order when you can lean to play a real guitar in the same time frame.
Wow, this could be big...
this may actually be the first guitar game i buy
this was the first thing me and my bro asked ourselve when guitar hero came out why don't they just use real instruments, not only is it fun, but your actually learning guitar
rockband and guitar hero better watch out,
hopefully they have good songs
just watch though acti and rockband creator to make a guitar like this
This is pretty cool
Looks cool.
i think this will be mine
