For me this is the best Guitar Hero yet.
I do not understand the bad and mediocre reviews given in the press, and the internet.
Yes not all the songs are to my liking, but I bet that will never happen, and most though are great.
I am so glad that they have gone back to what Guitar Hero does best, and that is concentrating on the guitar play. This game will give your fingers a great workout.
The quest is a great idea (it does sound a bit daft), but it makes a great change from just opening up different venues to play at.
The guitar; for me this is the best yet, I have all the guitar hero ones (except the Guitar Hero 5 one), and a few of the Rock Band. It feels much better built, its got a bit of weight behind it, and I am glad I bought the game with the guitar.
all in all money well spent.

This came really quickly, earlier than the predicted arrival date. The guitar looks really small compared to older versions but is just as easy to use. Theres a huge range of songs, a bit of something for everyone, from Fall Out Boy and Ozzy Osbourne to Dragonforce and Metallica. I played this with my boyfriend, being bass and guitar, and we completed the game within 2 days, now we just spend the time repeating and mastering our favourite songs. Alot of fun and would love to try it out with the full band.

This is more like! After the disappointment of GH5 I was sceptical about buying this but as soon as I saw the set list it became a must buy, obviously as you will see from the list above the songs are aimed mostly at rock/metal fans, there are no pop or rap songs on there and as such every track is amazing on the Guitar, which at the end of the day is what this game is all about. The option to play the other instruments is there as well as a full band as is the norm, but the songs have clearly been picked with the Guitar in mind first.
As mentioned by another reviewer the story is fantastic, nonsense but fantastic none the less, the only thing I will add on this point is that 2112 by Rush is amazing with full narration by the band and specific venues designed around the lyrics and concept of the music, plus the song rocks!
There are all the usual multiplayer options included, and with a massive career that offers multiple plays this game is certainly going to last a long time.
One final note is that the new Guitar is fantastic with the fret buttons spaced slightly closer together and the strum bar and whammy bar feel sturdier than on previous Guitars.
Overall then a fantastic return to form from Neversoft, I can't recommend this highly enough.

Guitar for lazy people
Love this mainly because of the music contained within. This is what Guitar Hero was made for. Proper heavy metal for air guitarists like me to go mad and bang their head to. Read more
