So to have a gaming series survive in this time is an accomplishment in itself, let alone to have become a household name. One series that can boast this achievement is Guitar Hero. This year will be the fourth year since the first instalment of the series was unveiled and no one could have predicted how successful it would prove to be (at time of writing, there have been 8 console games, with a further 2 in the pipeline, 3 hand-held versions, and 3 mobile versions too). We put it down to the fact that RedOctane have created one of the most addictive and challenging games around. Well, that and the fact that you get to play with a cool guitar!
The success of games is measured differently depending on the genre in which it exists. The FIFA series is measured by which players they have on the front cover. The Singstar series' is measured by which songs are available to perform. Guitar Hero is measured by which bands they are affiliated with. Guitar Hero: Aerosmith put the series up there in the impressive bracket. But with the release of Guitar Hero: Metallica they have managed to nudge it up into the 'OMG you cannot be serious' bracket."
