GameFocus - I’m sure I’m echoing many of you by saying that music games have become stale. Innovation comes in small bits and pieces with each release; and that itself is hampered by a saturation of the market.

"Going back a few console generations, gaming experienced a surge of rhythm-based games. From shredding out in Guitar Hero to hitting the floor in Dance Central, game started crossing the line between general, real world practices and digital entertainment. Like most other genres, rhythm games became saturated and dipped off in popularity." --PlayStation Enthusiast

The rumors are swirling, so The Geek Culture has a few suggestions on how Activision can bring back Guitar Hero right.
