Successfully reinvents music gaming's core mechanics, Uses those new mechanics to create surprising, inventive note patterns, Makes new music more accessible for casual players

Guitar Hero TV revolutionizes the genre, Guitar Hero Live is a new approach for the series, Welcome back, music videos, Ever-expanding soundtrack
On-disc tracks are far from enticing, Requires new plastic instrument purchase
Guitar Hero Live gives us an offline first-person rock-and-roll fantasy, but it's Guitar Hero TV that gives this series new life. The new guitar gives veterans new challenges while breaking down the barrier to entry for new players. While the on-disc trac...
