Guitar Hero Van Halen

joe — Tue, 22 Dec 2009 19:48:53 +0000

The latest installation in the Guitar Hero franchise brings the mighty Van Halen front and center in this latest band-centric game. The game promises to include all of Van Halen’s mega-hits such as ‘Panama’ and ‘Jump’ but that’s not all. This game also includes tracks that Van Halen personally picked to appear in the game from bands like Queen, Blink-182, Foo Fighters, Queens of the Stone Age, and Weezer. Like other band-centric Guitar Hero games the whole band has been re-created in the digital realm, well except for that Sammy Hagar guy. In all honesty this game is much like the last and the one that came before it but is still fresh enough to not feel like a tired re-branding. Van Halen does what Van Halen does best in this game and it’s hard to fault them for it. What else would you want them to do? Check out the trailer below and see for yourself.

A Real Life Guitar Hero!

What qualities must one possess to gain such achievement at Guitar Hero? Must they be extremely focused? Or is it simply the repetition of practice that promotes such skilled hand-eye coordination? Generally, when watching a friend play Guitar Hero, one will notice the lack of blinking and severe ability to tune everything out around them—excluding the game itself. There seems to be a trance induced state that many people fall into when playing this game, and it’s mind blowing. This young man seen below, (Chris Chike), amalgamates some of these truly focused skills.

Band Hero

joe — Mon, 23 Nov 2009 20:29:07 +0000

The much anticipated Band Hero was released earlier this month and the track list delivered on almost all levels. Fans of pop, rock, and alternative rock will sure to be pleased with all of the selections they have to make, but metal heads and hip hop connoisseurs will surely be disappointed. It was a conscious decision on Activision’s part to make the track list a bit more family friendly to get adults to pick up a controller. The game play is still as excellent as ever, but the song selection isn’t nowhere near as varied as previous iterations. The physical controllers have been further optimized and include all the features present in previous games, as well as aesthetic improvements. Basically, if you enjoyed all the previous Guitar Hero’s, you’ll like this one too. Nothing new here, but if it isn’t broke don’t fix it! Check out the full track list below.

It seems to be that the more video game savvy one is, the more apt they become technologically, as well. This young man has “hacked” his Guitar Hero guitar so it may be played as an instrument. Impressive!
