Speaking in the May issue of Conde Nast Portfolio magazine, Activision CEO Bobby Kotick revealed some of Guitar Hero's future plans. Other instruments are apparently getting the Hero treatment, including vocals. The fourth installment of the franchise will also let players jam along with local bands from their area. "It's not just about guitars," Kotick says. "We'll include a lot of other instruments, vocals. It will help us expand internationally. It's the first game we've had in which we can use local content and local bands."
| Oh yes, it's not just about the guitars in a game called GUITAR HERO, oh HEAVENS NO.
Gg Activision. Gg. | |

if someone at Activision or Neversoft bothered to play RB once, they would realize that Harmonix charts songs better than anyone at Neversoft likely ever will and they they shouldn't bother trying to do the same exact thing as them and out-quality them. but why bother trying to pave your own road when you can just follow someone elses, right?

Guitar Hero Aerosmith, Guitar Hero On Tour, Local Band Hero, Bass Hero. It's funny because all this shit is in the span of 6 months, if even that. Way to kill the game. It's almost as bad as Halo.

EDIT: look what I just found, pretty funny: Quote: |

Actually, for that matter, if you've never picked up a real guitar...
Whatever. | |

The only time I would see it mattering is if the person that plays GH picks up a guitar and thinks hes the shit because he can pass every song on expert.
