  • The revamped presentation looks fantastic, and the party mode is a stroke of genius.
  • The song selection and the upcoming music marketplace still doesnt match the competition.

  • Abstract:  Guitar Hero 5 isnt the evolution that Guitar Hero World Tour was, and instead offers subtle changes and modest additions to the game. While the core mechanics are still fun, it seems possible that the series creative well has been tapped dry.

  • Abstract:  While there's a fat “five” tagged to the name of this game, by no stretch of the imagination is this only the fifth Guitar Hero game to hit the market. Ignoring the mobile and handheld spin-offs, prior to Guitar Hero 5 there have been eight Guitar Her...

  • Abstract:  Activision and Neversoft have been running the Guitar Hero show for some time now. The group took hold of the franchise with Guitar Hero 3, expanded the game series to a full band with Guitar Hero World Tour and offered up a handful of spin-offs along ...

  • Guitar Hero has been around forever and honestly, we were starting to get a little tired of the formula. But after seeing Guitar Hero 5 in action, I have to say that I'm not quite ready to give up my plastic instruments yet. With a wide selection of t...

  • Drop-in, drop-out adds a new dimension. Note tracking is sensible, HOPO timing is loose. Menu navigation is much improved, as are load times and graphics. DLC compatibility is steadily getting better. New controller looks to be a quality item, although it...
  • Vocals have definitely taken a back seat this time around. The set list is still fairly broad. Watching Kurt Cobain sing Du Hast is a little unsettling. Likewise, last time I checked, Shirely Manson wasnt a man.
