Activision recently announced that it will no longer be producing any more Guitar Hero games. How did a game that was a huge revenue driver and actually pretty fun end up in the scrap heap?
The Guitar Hero series was trying so hard to please everyone that it alienated the fans that made the game great in the first place. In an effort to find wider appeal, the series abandoned its hard rock roots.
The top-selling third-party games of all time across consoles include GTA V, Call of Duty, and Guitar Hero.
In the summer, we all do things that cool us off. That’s just conventional wisdom. But what if we’ve been going about it all wrong? What if the solution is leaning in to the heat, diving into even hotter activities to show the summer we’re not scared?
Let’s beat summer at its own game here. Whether you want to murder your way through hell or skate over it, gaming has got you covered.
COGconnected - It seems like the era of rhythm game dominance has come and gone but we argue that there's still room for them if they make a few key changes.
No we DONT need guitar hero or rockband. These games have had 7+titles each console cycle and Im tired of these being the mainstream and practically only focused on musical game.
Amplitude was brought back for PS4 yet with the tech and magic of DLC we didnt get it because not only gamers but devs have become out of touch.
Thumper impressed many and is at least a step in the right direction. I rather have more games like thumper. So screw all this rockband and Guitar hero BS! Take your guitars and peripherals and break them in half!
I preferred the patapon games but yeah. We need rhythm games to come back this gen
Guitar Hero with Taylor Swift songs was just plain wrong.
Rock band does it right. Release a new title for major additions keep the songs DLC.
I would pay $300 for a Guitar Hero : Guns N Roses.
If only that were possible.
Needed more steve vai ,satriani ,buckethead,dime bag and maiden these guys are guitar heroes.
Guitar Hero needed Brain Drill.

Same applies to Rock Band.
