Although Guitar Hero II hit the gaming world more than a year ago and Rock Band and Guitar Hero III were released in the fall of last year, they are all still games worth playing.
Strumming on a Fisher Price-esque guitar never felt so good.
Get over the dorky look, let loose and rock out like you’ve always wanted to.
You can almost smell the sold-out stadium when you hear the roar of the crowd as you flip into overdrive.
Each game has a specific target audience, advantages and disadvantages, but these electronic games are worth the investment and playtime.
Guitar Hero II polished the success of GHI and was compatible with systems other than just PS2.
Guitar Hero III offered harder songs and Rock Band made the GH pastime for the entire gang.
Also, by connecting online, players can find out how their scores rank in comparison and also play other gamers live on challenging songs.
Guitar Hero II won favor in the eyes of gamers because of its ingenuity, “rock ability” and just sheer fun.
It offered fans of classic rock music the chance to “fake play” their favorite songs and learn a few new ones.
GHII offers a single player as well as partner mode with a career that can be strived for and achieved.
Additionally, the game system offers many different achievements to aim for.
Guitar Hero III took the same format of Guitar Hero II but enhanced the visual appeal somewhat.
The songs are not any better than II, but the bonus “battle” and “hyper speed” modes encourages players to invite friends over to watch, play and battle.
Notably, the level of playing is raised. With GHIII, the four levels (easy, medium, hard, expert) seem one level harder than in GHII.
Essentially, in GHIII a player starts on easy but it plays like level medium in GHII.
Rock Band pulled out all the stops by combining the playability and awesomeness of GHII and GHIII into an experience that not only an individual gamer can enjoy, but that gamer and all his or her friends can enjoy as well.
RB has a seemingly endless single rocker campaign and slots for multiple bands per system unit.
Each RB band is made of one to four players positioned at lead and bass guitar, drums and microphone.
The songs that come with the system are not the only ones available either.
Downloadable songs from the Internet present entertainment that doesn’t get old and keeps the band rockin’ out to entire albums.
Also, RB presents a make-your-own character from scratch from height and weight to hair color and facial hair.
Playing fake guitar has never been easier than with Rock Band.
The level of songs might not be as difficult as the ones offered in III, but having your friends and family play with you on a world campaign is unforgettable and loads of fun.
loads of fun.
