Its been 5-years since we have seen a Rock Band or a Guitar Hero game. As quickly as the franchises rose to stardom, their fall from grace was just as swift. Sidd takes a look at both Rock Band 4 and Guitar Hero Live giving us the low down on what we can expect and who might come out on top.
Many video game franchises came and went during the 2010s, meeting ends ranging from sudden and surprising to drawn out and painful. Of them, these are 10 classic video game franchises that crumbled in the 2010s.
Metal gear was probably the worst way to end a franchise that was at one time the best out there, sad how that went down. Call of duty was good and it’s crapping out hard if u ask me. Uncharted ended right
Losing Dead Space and Silent Hill really sucks. Good horror games are hard to come by
I liked Killzone 2 and 3. KZ2 amazed me with the graphics. KZ3 refined the gameplay mechanics, although a small minority of fans thought the movement wasn't heavy enough like KZ2. I thought it was perfect
If you like games that make you tap your feet to the beat, here are 10 of the best music rhythm games available on PS4.
James writes - "Should you be in short supply of songs, Harmonix have you covered with loads of Rock Band 4 DLC ready to purchase, including the two latest additions to arrive from Asking Alexandria. Want to know what tracks they are?"
I like the fact that Guitar Hero is trying to do some new stuff with the game instead of rehash the old, which in many ways is what I feel RockBand is doing. Regardless great time to be a rhythm/music genre fan again.
Got GH preordered. I like that they focus on the guitar only, it was better last gen than RB's guitar. Don't care about other instruments. And the new Live guitar is supposed to give a more realistic playing feel with the button layout.
I think the thing that'll sway more towards Rock Band than Guitar Hero is the support for older hardware and DLC. Guitar Hero's ideas are actually interesting but being forced to pay extra for yet another plastic guitar is sure to turn a lot of people away.
The fact that I'll be able to buy the RB4 disc and have hundreds of songs ready to go with all my current plastic tat makes it a winner.
I'll stick with RB4 , the dlc library , the feel of the game and its great campaign systeme , the new freestyle mode . And no nonsense like playing guitar as a filler instruments in songs with piano and other intruments or modified sheets to artifically inflate difficulties in some modes .
And quite frankly i dont dig at all the live fmv aspect from GHlive , and even less playing the game on music videos .
Nice to see Guitar Hero innovate but I'm going back to Rock Band because of my old instruments, especially the mic, and all my songs.
