Amazing!
All the new features and setlist are what make this game amazing.
I was really getting tired of RB/GH Releasing the same thing over and over again with new songs, almost no new features, and the same tired note charts. Guitar Hero 5 changes everything. Completely redesigned interface that makes you feel like you can NEVER press a wrong button. You can switch modes within modes, go directly online from within modes, and even pull up your friends list from a new in-game menu (on PlayStation Network) and send network invites. The only thing I hate about this is, they took away the XMB friends list (it'd be equal to pulling up the Xbox Live invite list) for their own friends screen which doesn't sort by whether your friend is on/offline and whether they are playing Guitar Hero 5 or not. It's kind of crappy. However, it does let you see their Rocker Card for friends who've played the game.
That's probably the only complaint I have about the game. Everything else is prestine and adds a new funky freshness to the genre. Rock Band 3 is already trying to copy the new and improved music studio adding in their own thing. You can know use RB2 cymbals in GH5, which used to cause an error on previous games. You can import GHWT, GHSH, GHVH, and BH into Guitar Hero 5 and all your GHWT DLC except for Jimi Hendrix.
Updated note charts for RB drum players, too. You now use green for a cymbal and yellow isn't only for hi-hat anymore and velocity sensitivity has been added in for RB2 drums, also.
Great!
Awesome game with gun downloadable content.
Creating characters to make your own band, while time consuming, is essential and tons of fun!
Fun but it seems to be losing guitar hero identity.
There are many things I love about this game. The graphics are amazing and it seems more party friendly with band play and the ability to jump in and out of play. It is also nice to be able to switch from guitar, bass, drums or mic very easily. I feel that it is becoming more Rockband-like and less Guitar Hero. You earn trophies instead of cash for gigs and many of the challenges are band based. Also there doesn't seem to be any guitar battles. Despite the changes away from the Guitar Hero formula, I still feel the game is more fun to play and look at then any of the Rockband games I have played. I always invite all my friends to play Guitar Hero because I think it's lots of fun and most of them agree.
