It should also be noted that GH TV is far more entertaining for anyone who is watching the main player strum through songs as it features actual music videos in their entirety. Players may think they're done for the night, when a new tune pops on screen with a tantalizing hook at that point it becomes a drawn out game of 'just one more'.

The game introduces you to new music with this system, something we never thought would be so enjoyable. GH TV effectively forces players into trying songs they may have skipped if they had a choice. Players may think that not being able to pick what song comes next would be annoying, as it could lead to many unwanted tracks, but it feels like one of the best aspects of the entire game. It's like a radio, only with videos and a plastic guitar. Players are thrown into whatever song is currently being played once they select a channel and move on to another song as soon as the current one ends. There are two channels to pick from, with each playing a different category of music depending on the time of day. GH TV is basically a collection of music videos set to 'channels'. GH TV, on the other hand, is where the real action can be found. In the end GH Live is a passable campaign that gives players a new, but forgettable, view on the rock star experience. Live mode's presentation isn't anything to sneeze at, but it's not particularly memorable due to the fact that most players will be focusing on the music at hand and not the background effects. It's not exactly a bad thing, it's just a bit distracting. In the game's eyes players are either doing well and being worshipped or failing miserably and losing the crowd. One of the strangest things about GH Live is that there is no middle ground to how the game perceives your skills. Crowds sing along and cheer if you rock their socks off, and consequently boo and jeer if you're doing less than stellar. They are video recordings that Freestyle Games has synced to every song in the main Live campaign. All of the people on screen, whether in the band or in the crowd, are real. It features a first person view with players taking on the role of a guitarist who is touring with various bands across multiple music festivals and venues. The former is supposedly the game's star attraction. Guitar Hero Live is split into two main modes - GH Live and GH TV.

It's a very modern approach that works out well in the grand scheme of things.īut who cares about menus? Let's talk about gameplay. The transitions, loading animations and menus are all very well done, featuring bold text and lots of contrasting design elements.

They've been replaced by a very minimalistic visual style that's more about simplicity than anything else. Gone is the the over-the-top rock and roll attitude from previous titles player will find no flying eyeballs or overly animated avatars.
