Guitar Hero Review (PS2)

Like Harmonix’s previous games Frequency and Amplitude, Guitar Hero tasks the player with completing sections of music tracks via a downward-scrolling interface—somewhat similar to Dance Dance Revolution. The big difference is that while the aforementioned games required players to complete entire songs track by track, Guitar Hero focuses on the guitar elements for a more streamlined experience.

..With simple yet addictive gameplay, a unique input device, above-average visuals for the genre, and a carefully crafted aural component, Guitar Hero’s hefty MSRP is the only obstacle in recommending this game straight out. Simply put, if you can get past the cost and, better yet, have a buddy armed with their own controller, you need to play Guitar Hero as soon as possible.
