Guitar Hero is coming back

Guitar hero live

Do you have some fake rock star plastic in your garage? Do you like pretending that you are the next Tyson Ritter, the next big star? Do you want to play guitar hero again?

Well pretty soon you will be able to play a new game in the once popular franchise. The new game is called Guitar hero live. It’s supposed to be a game where you play from the point of view of a live action filmed band playing on a stage with a live interactive crowd that reacts to the way you play the game. If you miss notes then the crowd may start booing you or throw stuff onto the stage, but if you perform well then you can have a live music video play out before your eyes from a first person point of view.

So far the game has been listed on the US amazon store for the PS4, PS3, Xbox One, Xbox 360 and the Wii U. Each game will come with the new guitar hero guitar which has six buttons on it in a different orientation than the classic games, and the game disc. As far as we know so far there is no support for other peripherals. So if you have any old guitar hero props consider them useless, and no need to put back together the old band because it seems like the only multiplayer will come in the form of head to head guitar battles.

The game is scheduled for release on December 31 2015 for the price of $99 USD. Did you like the previous guitar hero games, and what do you think of this iteration.
