Play ponders what could have happened to Guitar Hero's 'soul' after NeverSoft admitted recently the series had lost its way.
"Going back a few console generations, gaming experienced a surge of rhythm-based games.

Like most other genres, rhythm games became saturated and dipped off in popularity." --PlayStation Enthusiast
Stop these articles, christmas is over. At the least come up with a different title, I mean its January 4 already.
Remember a few years ago, when all the cool kids were hooked to the ‘Guitar Hero’ and ‘Rock Band’ games. It gave a chance for all the wannabe rockstars to do some of their favorite posing without an air guitar. Admittedly, it was a fun experience that revived the spirit of rock ‘n’ roll for a new generation.
The rumors are swirling, so The Geek Culture has a few suggestions on how Activision can bring back Guitar Hero right.
It went to work for MTV Games. GH died when Harmonix stopped making them. You want soul, buy rockband.
Activision ruined GH. It became the same game over and over with different songs.
Rock Band forced them to change up and add instruments.
Its been sold and not even to the highest bidder
It went straight to Rock Band.
