Guitar Hero Live - New Guitar Hero Game (360/X1/PS3/PS4/WiiU + Mobile)

I wouldn't judge the UI on this footage, as it could all be subject to change. I mean, look at the initial gameplay footage of GH1. The look of everything was different, from the fret colors to the rock meter, the way it tracked the score reminds me of The Weakest Link and is not intuitive, and there's no Star Power at all. We don't know how finalized this UI and gameplay is at this point. Keep in mind that they pretty much had to rebuild everything from the ground up. The presentation of it and what is included could very much change, or (like I said in a previous post) they could even make how much is shown customizable so that you decide how much is on screen. That way, everyone wins!

First impression is yeah, looks kinda silly, but on reflection it could just be I've been entrenched in the same UI for the better part of a decade, and this is a stark contrast. Until I'm playing the final product in my hands, it's not much use to judge gameplay.

One of the articles mentioned the GHTV service will add new songs and have no subscription fee, which sounds great! I'm very interested to see how multiplayer will juggle what sounds like a variation of Party Mode and still have space/modes for SHers to compete.

Independent of gameplay, some very cool stuff was pulled off for the look of the game. Pretty funny to see criticisms of the acting.

So yeah, new GH. Kinda cool. Have no real strong feelings one way or the other. They obviously had to try something new this time around, and this is it. I'm glad they got rid of the cartoony graphics actually, although I'm not sold on the live action quite yet (although the pictures in this thread are pretty hilarious). Can't speak to the setlist yet, but it's looking like GH5 all over again for right now (I'm really hoping they prove me wrong).

The gameplay will be the most important part obviously, so until we see some of the more difficult Veteran charts, what the hit box will be like, changes in scoring and gameplay mechanics, etc., it's really tough to say if it'll be good. I really have a tough time thinking it will sell really well at this point, especially going up again RB4, but I do want it to succeed.

Came back to the community to check out the new guitar hero and talk about it.

This looks bad. I don't know what else to say.

Excited for RB4 though!

e: to add more to my post, the live audience thing is pretty much just a different form of the rock meter. It's not too different gameplay wise. The only thing i'm really not liking is the buttons. maybe when i actually get a chance to play it i'll think otherwise but ehhhhhh

Advanced difficulty at 1:30

Starts looking a lot tougher at that difficulty, since you need to hit both white AND black notes at the same time.

It just seems more focused on the strumming a la Guitar Freaks, which I legitimately dislike. Hopefully veteran is better.

Not sure how many of you will do this but I added "GuitarHero" to Snapchat and got to see some great footage of the game from tonight's event.
