It was no surprise that the 2005 smash-hit Guitar Hero for Playstation 2 would become a series. Any game that let us live out our rock and roll fantasies would be lucrative, to say the least. Well, it’s 2007 and the three-quel has arrived– and let me submit that it was the obvious choice for parents nationwide looking for a gift to give their gamer child.In the rare event that you, reader, have not picked up this or some iteration of Guitar Hero (or its big brother Rock Band), I would assume your hesitation for buying this game would be its ‘Teen’ rating and ‘Mild Lyrics’ ESRB rating.
More on that after the break.
There is very little plot to the game, but here it goes: you are a budding rock and roll guitarist and you join a bassist, singer, and drummer who have been advertising for just the role you’re filling. Along the way, your band will become increasingly famous, playing at larger and larger venues while at the same time struggling with a rather underhanded agent.
GRAPHICS: 4/5
The game will not blow you away, even on your fancy-pants HDTV, like other stellar XBox 360 games will. The graphics are crisp and very beautiful, and the guitar interface flows like butter down your screen. The art direction is very keen, though there are a few skeletons here and there for that more ‘extreme’ aesthetic. I use quotes because it is negligible.
SOUND: 5/5
More than half of the songs you play are by the original artists, which will appeal to any rock enthusiast. After all, no one can do Axl Rose better than Axl Rose, right?
VIOLENCE: 4/5 (Sparse Incidences)
No one is injured in this game. The only violence comes from a guitar which is shaped like the upper torso of a skeleton, and from the Prison Venue in which Riot Gas is fired into the audience. Oddly enough, the audience does not react to the gas at all. Additionally, heavy metal band Slayer’s ‘Raining Blood’ is somewhat violent, if one is lucky enough to understand the rapid-fire lyrics. The blood is raining from a lacer in the sky, by the way.
