Guitar Hero 5 for PlayStation 3 Reviews by Gamers

Gameplay: 3
Play each song once (which is okay with me 96% of the songs I could only stand to play once anyway) collect stars to proceed, once in a rare while you’ll see a cut scene. The challenges are a neat addition but but it's not fun if you don't like the songs.

Graphics: 6
Are better than any of the others. The create a rocker is almost the same as in the past. The clothes are all the same, might and I stress might be 2 or 3 new pieces. But overall same ol' same ol". The fret boards are also boring. It‘s the same thing for all characters unlike previous GH’s which were different.

Sound: 3
It’s only getting a 3 from me because it has Bon Jovi, Iron Maiden and 3 Doors Down on it. You can also play DLC. Other than that this set list should be balled up thrown in a rocket and shot into the sun, the guy(s) who came up with it too, they picked good bands don‘t get me wrong. They just picked bad songs.

GH Mix: 9
They really cleaned it up; they almost out did them themselves on it. I would have preferred it have more than 2 decent Metal Tones and not so many clean and old ball tones. Other than that it’s pretty good.

GHTunes however: 2
It’s like grass that never gets mowed...
It would be half way neat if 99% of it wasn't junk. All you find on there is impossible this or to hard that… GHTunes should have a "Remove it" feature where if the song gets enough of those votes it should be removed from GHTunes... That would save alot of space and let all the good ones be heard.

Lasting Appeal: 2
For me it's an epic failure the only thing that will keep me playing which is once every other week is GH: Mix and DLC. If you like most of the songs then you’ll not get board.

Overall: 3
Only because of GH: Mix and DLC, again if you like easy to play pop and alternative songs then you will love the game. I’ll just stick with playing a game that’s actually requires skill like GH: Metallica

Thanks for reading

ive noticed that guitar hero has slowly been getting worse and worse, which isnt a complete rip on this game because its still okay, in fact the gameplay itself had been getting better, its just the songs that need work. when i first played this game i hadnt heard of litearlly at least half of the bands in it, and i have a pretty broad musical outlook, its one of my favorite things in life. my biggest complaint with this game is that its ridicuolsly easy to fail, especially on expert drums, once you get in the red, your pretty much screwed. now, onto the songs, like i said before, they were just alright i guess, theres some really great ones like demons by darkest hour, and sweating bullets by megadeth. but thens theres terrible songs like l.a., by some ninny named elliot smith, and ex girlfriend by no doubt, which is weird because i like some of no doubts other songs, but they picked probably theyre worst song. music games are my favorite kind, i love playing drums in these games, and that all started with rock band, which i prefer over guitar hero. but lately i looked at the songs in the upcoming rock band 3, and im not gonna lie, most of them suck, really hard, then i looked at guitar hero warriors of rocks...WOW. guitar hero is actually staring to look better than rock band, which is weird because its been the opposite for the past like 5 guitar hero games, and rock band is really good at relasing good dlc, something that guitar hero is terrible at. so all in all, this game is okay, but im mostly looking forward to the next one
