Stop complaining about the new button layout, the new way of song delivery, and whatever new thing that got you by surprise. It's a different, bold, new direction and the developers put a lot of work in reinventing the somewhat tired rhythm+music genre. This game is fun, and GH Live is such a wonderful bonus to have.… Expand

Being a massive fan of rhythm games I haveThis new instalment of Gutiar Hero is a breath of fresh air from the previous games of the series. Being a massive fan of rhythm games I have already gotten 12 hours put into the game and can't find myself getting off it. If you're up for getting into the new style of game I highly recommend you go out and get your hands on this. A massive streaming library of songs of almost every genre gives the chance for you and all your friends to enjoy a good night full of your favourite tunes.
   Career mode is the only lacking part of the game where it doesn't really give you any sort of achievement when finishing, yo just unlock a few songs for quickplay which is small in comparison to the online library of songs.… Expand

The game play is fun as always, the guitar feels great to use and the song choices are great! However, I found the notes harder to read at full speed, I much prefer the old style of notes. The HUD looks really bland and boring to look at as well. I stopped playing this game after a month because of the hard to read notes. I also despise the plays mechanic, this is a full-priced game with freemium mobile game mechanics.… Expand

The new live concert feel this game added with the actual crowd is a very cool mechanic added, and with them changing based on your performance is great. I also found myself enjoying the new button lay-out. I found the lack of depth in songs was very poor however, and the purchasing of songs is something I am not at all a fan of.
   
   The new button layout is a good thing. I found it much easier to play once I got the feel for it as you could just need to move your fingers from the top to the bottom keys, rather than having to slide them up and down the guitar. This however is just my feelings for it as I like that it feels more attainable to get to higher difficulties with this layout, and I could definitely see how some may dislike it as it definitely took more skill with the old layout.
   
   I hate having to pay to play more songs. I think this game may come with less songs than any Guitar Hero game so far, and that's wrong. A game with this few options of differing gameplay should have a robust library, and this game fails to do that. I also was very upset that the game came with so few older titles. Many of the songs are very Top 40-ish and recently made, and I liked playing Guitar Hero for the old school titles.
   
   In closing, the game is fun. I had a good time playing this game for a few hours, but unless you are willing to pay the $99.99 for just a few hours of fun I would skip this game. I would only recommend it for true lovers of the series who are willing to dump some money into buying songs as well as the initial purchase price. I was lucky enough to grab the game on sale, which made it feel less like a cash grab game, but the game definitely needed to come with more to be worth it.

Truly disappointed when GH fell off the market. To hear it was making a comeback, the new GH Live was all I wanted for xmas and I got a new PS4 to go with. My high expectations for this turned out to be a punch in the gut. Whomever designed the new guitar and game needs to sit and revisit the crayon box because after 5 minutes of play, not only does 3 top and bottom buttons become absolutely confusing but WTH happened to the color? The game becomes completely boring and mind numbing despite the challenges of music. Like riding a magic bus without the sparkle to it. The old GH was perfect! Why not improve upon that? They really should've kept the GH signature of the Colored buttons on both the guitar and in the game and I wouldnt've be so quick to get my money back. Total let down. Yay Ebay!… Expand
