Guitar Hero 5
So far GH5 seems rather impressive. Prior to 5 I was more into how Rock Band presented their games and such, but GH5 has taken some notes apparently. The presentation of how everything is setup while playing in 5 is a lot cleaner and reminds me a good bit of RB’s style.
I’m having fun with it so far, though I have to adjust to the versions of some of the songs that they used in the game. They aren’t all the same versions that I’ve heard the most.
The ability to make your 360 Avi or Mii your rockstar is pretty badass. Though it reminds me of throwing Special Ed from Crank Yankers onto the stage because you look so out of place compared to the normal characters. Hahaha. But it’s pretty kickass to watch your avi rock out.
Fun times thus far. Totally suggest you try this one out. Rock Band: The Beatles is out on the 9th and I’m not really for certain how this one will go. I’m sure if you’re a Beatles fan, you’ll love it just because of what it is. But on the basis of game alone, I don’t really see Rock Band doing much of anything too original.
I am happy to see both games introduce the option to play any instrument combination, though. And the ability to jump in and out of the band while playing… without having to back out of what you’re currently doing.
Check it out!
