Interesting. I never owned any of the music games, but I've always played them, going back to Taiko Drum Master to the latest Rockbands and GHs. They're cool for a while, but if you don't have people to play with, they're not that fun at all.

I'm glad for the people who enjoy the series though.

I'm curious... but honestly I'm a little burned out on the whole rockband/ guitar hero thing. Switched to Rocksmith now. I want to see a track list and if I can use my old wii guitars first.

I loved that game! My gf at the time and I would play the crap out of it! She always got the drum ... I was stuck with the PS2 controller ... -_-v

@crimsoncavalier I keep hoping that namco will do a combo disk for all of the wii games on wiiu. I'm saving up to buy their premium taiko controller (250) because I need help.

On topic: Here is hoping the controller will get a redesign. I prefer the rockband ones more. EDIT: I saw the new controller. If I like the set list I'm in.

I think my heart just exploded. A new GH? AND it's coming to Wii U? I'm going to go add this to my Calendar thread immediately. I can't wait for this to launch!

That looked... bad. And TV mode looks like it's in the running for the most monetized console experience of all time.

Nintendo needs to advertise the crap out of this game.

The guitar is completely redesigned so it will not work with old equipment. Also the interesting thing about this game is you will have your traditional guitar hero mode, then you will have the live mode which is a constantly updating 24 hour music video channel where you get to play guitar.

Its been about 6 yrs since the last Guitar Hero and so I immediately pre-ordered this, I was not expecting it to come out for the Wii U and almost fainted when they announced it lol.

Guitar Hero 3 sold an insane amount of copies on the Wii so I'm glad someone still sees the potential for money from this console. Kinda sad I never played it nearly as much as I wanted to.

I do agree that the timing is kinda awkward. I mean, Guitar Hero didn't become temporarily less relevant, it just DIED. Stuff like this frequently needs another 3-4 years before people want more again. It's not old enough for people to be nostalgic but it's not new enough to still be all that relevant.

I don't like the actors either. Too many awful pretenders failing at acting like normal humans.

It's just another Guitar Hero game, this time with a gimmick. The songs are nice, but the live action will surly get repetitive because there's no way they hired enough actors to make it hold up for 30+ songs.

Don't hate me because I'm bnahabulous.

Nothing is stopping them from allowing old GH controllers in an extra mode specific to the older guitars, but as those guitars won't work on the PS4 and XO without some serious work, so it'd be Wii U exclusive, and I really doubt they're gonna put that much work into a Wii U exclusive feature.

On top of that, GH Live is more like your typical GH mode, from the sounds of it while GHTV more accurately matches what you described as GH Live. Just wanted to point that out.

Also, if my memory serves, Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock came out in 2011, so four years, not six.

It looks like hot garbage tbh. The FMV thing looks weird and the game is no longer made for a party setting.

WAT!

It really does. Oh well, I've got other rhythm games now. Ones that don't force an overpriced periferal down my throat, to boot.

Any other non-Jpop rhythm games on the horizon to look out for?

Yeah, I was gonna say "I don't want to hang out with these douchebags for an entire career mode," but that seemed rude.

Man, this looks like it was really expensive to make though. That's a lot of people to pay for multiple reactions to presumably a few dozen songs.

Hopefully there is an FMV groupie mini-game at the end of each stage

They'd have to do something drastic to make me not get a new Guitar Hero, but then again, this is looking pretty drastic. I have yet to decide if I like the new controller or not. Freestyle Games is making this one, amd as they made the DJ Hero games, I'm optimistic about this game.

Also, a few dozen? Man, that would be a disappointment. It's been four years. I expact at least twice that many, if not thee times.
