Hey
It's also on Nintendo Switch
why the fuck
is green day rockband not here
cuz its s tier if your a green day fan
nevermind i see it
Please try tv ii on clone hero. Please! 🙏
My parents and family friends used to get drunk and play rock band as a family, we've probably purchased 80% of the dlc songs ever released and we played the shit out of every one of them. We used to have smoke machines and fog lights, strobe lights and real stage lights, custom guitars and microphones. Some of my earliest memories on those games, hurts that that chapter of my life is over now
You’ll never get that part of your life back!
@@patstaysuckafreeboss8006 what an A-Hole LOL
good times
@@patstaysuckafreeboss8006 facts, my parents got divorced
@@pappabrocc you can bring it back with your kids, memories will always come back if you try hard enough
I am so glad you put World Tour as an S. This game is the first introduction to the franchise I had as a kid, and I absolutely loved playing drums with my dad as guitar and mom doing the vocals for the game. Was such a blast
World Tour was my first experience with GH. It was great
I put the world tour disc in my xbox, kicked it accidentally and broke the disc before i got to play it. Went and bought another copy and wasnt even mad. That game was dope.
I'm glad they had licensed to 3 Tool songs.
i would've loved to play with my family
@@gabrielbevis1961 GHWT were introduce me to Tool such bizarre experience when first time playing the Tool gig
About GHVH's guest acts on how they were chosen, that job on the Guest Acts was all Chosen by Wolfgang Van Halen Himself, it was just all the Music he listened to back in 2009, so its just basically Wolfgang's Ipod from 2009, weird but a bit if a historical thing TBH, and he also gave Pointers on how a lot of the songs were charted to, its also the reason why the Guitar Charts are DRASTICLLY Different between WT and VH for Hot For Teacher.
That’s weird because Ain’t Talkin Bout love is charged wrong in the chorus riff and that’s always annoyed me
pretty sure acai just referenced your comment in GHVH part one that released yesterday
@@nickp3949 explain
@@darknid158 It’s the riff right after he says “Ain’t Talkin Bout LOVE”. In the actual song it’s not just equally spaced out notes, but that’s how they charted it
@@nickp3949 equally spaced?? Wtf does that mean
IMO Rock Band 2 is a 10 outta 10. I still think about it basically every day. The setlist was money, the customization was great, the online features were super fleshed out (Battle of the Bands hell yeah) and the DLC coming out at the time was peak plastic instruments tier. I played this shit every day and talked to classmates about being able to pass Painkiller on drums. What a time to be alive
Something I needed to say about World Tour was the CUSTOMIZATION. The "make your own rocker" was insanely dope at the time, and what was better was changing the highway, note colors, everything to make it your own setup. Hell, you could change every part of your instruments! Down to the volume knobs and pickups on your guitar! I still remember making Weird Al, Serj Tankian, and, of course, my own "version of myself" that I aspired to look like when I was just a few years older.
character customization is mad overlooked in these games. i see all these fc's on youtube and ppl just use the default characters when u can have so much fun making the weirdest looking bands. every playthru i did i created a whole new whacky band with their own visual gimmick. so much fuckin fun.
@@seralouise.uh because the characters are iconic… lol 😂
Reading this made me feel like I was 8 again 😭😭😂 world tour was my FAVORITE bro
I remember making a Jared Leto-looking character to play The Kill lmao
Damn, people still reading this comment from almost two years ago, huh?@@fortunamajor7239
Warriors Of Rock is the most underrated Guitar Hero game, and it's my personal favourite game in the series! I'm very glad you put Warriors Of Rock on S tier! :D
And you're right, the 2112 part of the game is 🔥
Having it be narrated by the Band was incredible
The most Metal guitar hero, of course it’s the best.
Same dude 100% my favorite game.
@@gareththerrien3473 and Gene Simmons as the main narrator was sick too
oh my god… im so happy other people think the same way i do about wor
rock band 3 is my favorite ever because it shaped my college experience. I ran the rock band sub group of my schools gaming club for 3 years, we had a huge collection of customs + official dlc bought with the club budget over the years (and even exports cause they hopped on it early back in the day). super fun to kick back and play every week and see people join our (very small) but very active community
What about Rock Band 2?
@@Darkshock25 my first gh / rb game, had on the wii as a kid. forever has a place in my heart. the gaming club didn’t play it tho
Fun Fact: A majority of the guest acts on Guitar Hero: Metallica were based on covers the band did on Garage Inc. and Kill ‘em All. “Am I Evil?,” “Turn the Page,” and “Stone Cold Crazy” are all songs they covered over their discography.
Turn the page Metallica version is one of the most emotional songs ive heard
38:48 I remember when Neversoft was requesting songs for Warriors of Rock, one of the two songs I requested were DragonForce's Fury of the Storm and I was so hyped it actually got in. The other song which, yeah, I didn't think would make it in, was Crush 40's Live & Learn from Sonic Adventure 2.
what could have been
At least we can play it on Rock Band 3 Custom Songs! :D
Fury of the Storm might just be as important to the bands success as ttfaf. If you didn't know fury was actually one of the most popular custom songs back in the GH2 days which may have attributed to the inclusion of TTFaF in GH3 and FotS in WoR
@@Benjawin6671 Huh, I didn't know that.
As someone who played all these on the Wii, Rock Band 2 was revolutionary. Rock Band on Wii was such a stripped back version so when we got customization, online play, and DLC I was so hyped.
I actually used to sing the Endless Setlist like once a week. It trained me for what I do nowadays, which is sing 3 hour sets xD
The first three guitar heros had a huge impact on my musical taste growing up. I've branched out a lot since then, but it was a good foundation to have
I have to credit GH2 for introducing me to Primus which then inspired me to learn bass.
GH1 introduced me to other music genres I never knew about when I was 11.
It is a CRIME that so few fans of the series have played Warriors of Rock. I was so happy to see it in S-Tier. I'm not sure if it's my favorite, but I admire it because I can see how hard the devs worked on the game - it really shows how inspired the team was to make something that was at least new and interesting, and it ended up being great.
EDIT: By "fans" I mean people I know who used to play back around GH3, World Tour, etc. Not necessarily the fanbase at large. I just feel like it's really common for people to not bother with WoR, because after so many sequels people just lost faith in Guitar Hero, and just saw games after 3 or World Tour to be glorified track packs.
TRACK PACKS ARE NOT GAMES THATS WHY THEY'RE NOT ON HERE. YES THAT INCLUDES AC/DC
Acai out here refusing to acknowledge the greatness that is 'Rock Band: Country Track Pack - Vol. 2' (2011)
Fair
This legitimately feels like some real life conversations I've had with other people about these games. Just having a good time and remembering all the cool stuff. Even if it wasn't all perfect, most of them still brought something special to the table. RB3 probably has to be the top spot for me since the customs scene for that game is still unrivaled in rhythm gaming imo (Clone Hero might get there someday though). And as someone who sweated profusely on the Blitz leaderboards back in the day, I appreciate the kind words for that game too.
Man I remember how crazy popular GH was getting around 06/07. Like I knew only knew a handful of other kids who had played the original, but shortly after GH2 released, it was like half the school was playing it and talking about it. Good times, Rocks the 80s was the last one that I owned and played a ton when it released, although I rented a few of the other PS2 ports as well. Kinda wish I kept up with all of these games, but I didn't get into 7th gen gaming until like 2011, when these games seemed to be on a decline. Rocksmith 2014 has kinda rekindled those memories for me a bit though
literally have so many memories with WoR. that game, my full band kit, and my xbox went EVERYWHERE with me, my friends and i were hooked. looked up WoR for pc and usb guitar controllers and found two of your videos as the top results as well!! gonna watch those and it looks like i'll be kicking it with a WoR mod for GH3 before long
These Rock Band rankings make me very happy. I have so many good memories surrounding this franchise with my family, especially my mom. Its got a fine place in my heart
Does it make you want to play the older Rock Band games again?
I miss these games so much. Rock band two and three basically shaped my childhood, and because of them I actually play drums now. I miss these games more than anything.
Does it make you want to play the older Rock Band games again?
So glad to see Rock Band 2 at the top of your list. That game was legendary and I spent so many days playing with my brother on that game. I always said Rock Band 2 and Guitar Hero 2 were my 2 favorite guitar games
GH1 was the proof it could be done, but GH2 refined it like a nice wine.
same with RB1 and RB2!
Guitar Hero V is probably my favourite. Great set list that opened me up to a lot of indie rock and classic rock. I'm not sure if this is valid, but I found the visuals really appealing. Felt like the series finally took off the proverbial eyeliner and brushed up. Great video!
I cant believe GH5 is one of your favorites as well! that was really my first experience playing GH and I had so much fun going through the songs with that black Rockband Strat. I enjoyed this game so much, I just wish more people gave it attention
GH5 also had a really cool mode where the game would change your difficulty as you played so you could try and challenge yourself. I thought that was really cool as a kid.
These are good rankings and I appreciate your input as to why you ranked some higher or lower than I would have had.
Guitar Hero is what made me appreciate classic rock as well. I remember playing shout at the devil on easy while faced away from the TV in front of one of my older brothers thinking I was so cool 😎 lol guitar hero brings back many fond memories. Enjoyed this video a lot. Happy that I stumbled across your channel. Love to see that the community is still involved with creating new content. Cheers ✌️🤓👍
i have to say warriors of rock is my favorite, i honestly felt that the engine was super smooth in that game, maybe its just that ive played it so much i really got used to it. it feels the best for me at least. but for real, your stories about rock band 2 just brought back so many memories for me. i grew up playing that game after school every single day, pretty much through almost every song each time. i think i often would get home and just play for 3-4 hours immediately. good times. Thank you so much for your channel, i only discovered recently that there was a community of people out there who still love these games as much as i do
The harder charts from WOR aren’t my favorite as they prioritize strumming over anything else with some exception like the final battle and the bonus materials but older charts from previous guitar hero games can be played so that evens itself out
The emotions that came to me when you put WOR on s bro, that game made the majority of my life from 7th to 9th grade, and i know it gets memed on a lot, but i really liked it, and didn't really understood why it was so overlooked. I loved the difficulty in all of the songs there too, as i would really say this was the send off to classic guitar hero. Literally putting everything that was seen previously on a tight as hell game. Bro and the band implementation was sick.
I watched this video over a few days. sad it is about to end, great and such informative content!
The only GH I had experience with was Warriors of Rock on Wii. I ended up getting way into Rush quite a few years after the fact, but after watching so many of your videos for the past few years, I can’t wait to go back and see what I missed or would understand now. Thanks man.
Pretty sweet video, gave me a wave of nostalgia remember all these games. If you end up making more of these I'd love to see one ranking the guitar hero clones (phase shift, fof, hell even guitar flash lol)
Yoo, Guitar Flash was my jam back in the day! Also there was this flash game called Riff Master or Guitar Master, I've seen both variants, only the logo changes. That was hilarious. XDD
Thank you for ranking these! it’s good to see another point of view on these games and I agree with almost all of your opinions. I definitely agree that smash hits could’ve been way better, I think that the majority of the songs should have been from 1, 2, and rocks the 80s so that songs from those games could’ve been accessible to every console.
playing world tour at my cousins house is how i convinced my family to get us a wii as a kid, and started my love of rhythm games! i’ll always love it lol
I still love how chill this video is. Such good vibes.
really nice to hear you bonded with your dad on GH 80s, tier list has valid points too(:
Rock band 2 to this day will always be one of my favorite games of all times. From the features to the setlist. Jesus the thousands of hrs i put between the 360 and ps3 versions since the games release....just outstanding!
I played a lot of guitar hero in high school, and the games I played the most were GH5 and WoR. In addition, my parents gifted me World Tour. I absolutely loved all these games, and I'm happy to see you love them too!
For me, GH2, GH3, and RB1 are high S tier, those 3 games had such an influence on my taste in music. Every time I hear the songs from any one of those games, it takes me back to middle school when I was obsessively playing those games. Really loved RB2, GHWT, GHMetallica, GHAerosmith, GHVan Halen as well, but nothing tops those first 3 games for me, legendary stuff \m/
“Psycho Billy Freakout” is still a song I struggle on GH2 but it’s fun to play, and listen to on my own time
Smash hits was great for me for monetary reason. In France, at some point, it was 30e to get the game with a GH3 Les Paul that I still own to this day. It was a great deal!
I'm so glad I wasn't the only one who thought RB2 was amazing. It was perfect for everyone IMO, the songs were 10/10, DLC was on point and addictive to buy, doing the endless setlist, the online play being super good. But the thing that really made it for me as a drummer was the competitive aspect of it. learning the best overdrive paths, as well as squeezing made the game addictive to play. You could FC a song, but the score has potential to be a few thousand more points due to squeezing and good OD paths.
loved this. almost got emotional agreeing with you on RB2. magical times.
I was so happy when he placed Rock Band 2 at #1.
It really is one of the greatest games ever made.
This video is amazing. Loved the music too
I’ve only played three of these games, so I can’t relate a ton. But hearing you go off about the game series you’re so passionate about was really a treat
I haven't played guitar hero in about a decade and maaaan was this ever a throwback. I found guitar hero world tour through a local seller with 2 guitars, package sealed and brand new and they guy surprisingly isn't charging an arm and a leg for it. Super excited!!
RB2 and the early days of RB3 were the pinnacle of rhythm gaming for me, as a multi-instrumentalist (singer, drums, keys, guitar, bass, I played it all - pro too). I miss the community. RB4 doesn't even seem to have full band high scores. I miss activiating OD together at the exact right time - the hidden language of competitive RB playing.
I think people should admit that pro drums and vocals having densely high-scoring sections made full-band overdrive pathing an absolute freakin' blast.
WE’VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS
The Beatles Rock Band was my first introduction to these games and was given to me as a present by idefk who anymore but i remember i would play it with one friend in particular. Our mother's worked together i think so ofc we spent a lot of time together and whenever he was over, we'd play The Beatles Rock Band. Every. Single. Time. I only had the guitar and mic but we'd take turns on each. It was sO fun watching the intro with The Beatles traveling the world and Here Comes The Sun playing before playing the game. Miss that tbh. And my friend who moved away 😔
As an (amateur) character designer, I think WoR is probably the greatest in the series in that department. The whole returning gang look the best they've been, the newcomers look great, and don't even get me started on their Warrior forms. Just- *chefs kiss*. (Also not to mention the mocap performances with the extra love in them, like Bohemian Rhapsody.)
Rock Band 2 was also my absolute favorite. It was the pinnacle of Rock Band to me and my friends. 3 was cool cuz of the keyboard support, but it didn't feel the same.
Warriors of Rock is probably my favorite game from the series. As you said, the setlist was incredible, but I personally enjoyed the engine and overall vibe, plus the story mode was super innovative. Always wondered where they would have went next in the series if it didn't get canned.
can't believe you forgot GH2 had "yes we can", the only reason it should be in S+ tier
i haven't watched you ina while but im glad i checked your channel ive always wanted to see a gh tier list from you i have ever guitar hero except 1 and 2 ive been playing since 4 yrs old and im 15 im what my family calls a guitar hero "god" and i can't wait to watch this
What about the Rock Band games?
After watching this video I think that Rock Band VR literally would be Rock Band 4 for PC and you're right,it's sorta like a Tech demo hahaha.
Great video and very pog tierlist!
Thank you for having WT has S. It's literally the only Guitar Hero game I own and it's got a really great engine and some really cool songs. Plus it's got a Michael Jackson song with a Van Halen solo in it!
I share your exact thoughts about Guitar Hero World Tour. I despised that game when I first played it, but now it's one of my all time favorite video games.
So glad you put Rock Band 2 on S. Great game it’s still my favorite. My guitar and mic are so old and the guitar’s farther up bottoms are so messed up but I still play. Livin on a Prayer, Anyway you want it, Round n Round, and Carry on my wayward son will always be my favs.
I love your gaming setup. I'd pay to come play yor games dude. You're viddies are so well informative keepbup good work
You listing those setlists makes me wanna play these games again so bad. My Rockband phase lasted for just one summer and it had a seismic and permanent impact on my music taste.
You still got the equipment? You can get it back online if you don’t have them.
Always great to see some love for GH5!
About a year ago I bought a RB1 drumset for $50 and RB2 on PS3 on a whim. Now I have every instrument except the pro guitar, and a bunch of these game. Legendary series
i grew up on ps2 GH3 then got world tour on 360, that skill jump was insane. When i got Warriors or Rock it was game over, constant grinding.
Very cool seeing Alec sponsored by Asphalt. Used to play Asphalt 7 and 8 for hours on my terrible Windows 8 PC back in 2015.
I appreciate this much as someone who also supported much of Rock Band 3 and Blitz's era.
Cool video! There’s a few Rock Band games missing you may or may not have played- firstly LEGO Rock Band and Rock Band 3 had a DS game, both of which I thought were solid- and then there was also a mobile game and iPad game like 10 years ago, I don’t remember their exact names, both were good but the iPad app I played all the time.
Rock band 2 had a amazing set list the most well known metal, rock/ punk and grunge songs I played it all the time
warriors of rock is my absolute favorite guitar hero game, I played it a ton with my friends for hours, the story mode was also super fun
Warriors of rock was my first guitar hero game!:) Best birthday gift ever
People remember Guitar Hero 3 so much because it was where the franchise really started to blow up. It was difficult, and almost stupidly so, but it wasn't held back by mediocre covers like Guitar Hero 2 and 1 were. I don't care how good the songs were in GH2/GH1, Guitar Hero 3 had PROPER songtracks, and a ton of great DLC songpacks like the Dragonforce and Halo songpacks. I got the game for Christmas in 2007 and I still have my xbox 360 copy to this day.
By pop culture influence GH3 is S++ tier with even a South Park episode mocking the franchise
@@duquem0421 lol the south park episode was based around GH2
Owned
@@acai28 I thought it was for guitar hero 3 since the episode aired a week after guitar hero 3 released
@@gabriel-ox7qu the episode aired a week after gh3 was released
I like how this is released on april fools day, but is an unironically enjoyable video
(also yes i know its like not been the video length yet, im just saying im really enjoying how chill the video is so far)
You had me up until the Dream Genie take lmao. Great vid
Rock Band Unplugged a goated game countless hours on that game for me.
you should try out the DS versions of Lego and 3 if you haven't yet, they are similar to the gameplay of RB Unplugged. great vid Alec
I’ve always loved WoR, but one of the latest justices it did for me was introducing me to Strung Out. Calling was already amazing to play, but then I found out they had an insane cover of Bark At The Moon, which is still one of the craziest CH charts I’ve made to date. Guitarist is a literal strumming god
Me and my friends, who are going to college now, still play rockband 2 to this day
this inspired me to look up if wii rockband guitars work on clone hero, (they do!) and spent like 5 hours figuring out how to get it all working (cause im dumb, shoulda taken like an hour tops) and thanks man! this is awesome lol. ALSO HOLY the cover for chop suey on RR had me in TEARSS
great video, I actually had no idea so many songs were covers in gh and rockband, kinda blew my mind my hearing must be shot 🤣. tynna be constructive here but i think some clips of the games put in sporadically for visuals would be nice, but i know that stuff takes a lot of time, and this was like a year ago also
I enjoyed Smash Hits (labelled Greatest Hits in Europe I think)
Gave me a chance to catch up on the PS1/PS2 era GH games/songs as I only had a gamcube until I bought a PS3.
Absolutely livid that you put Smash Hits that low. My brother and I put SO much time into that game. Loved every bit of it. If you just take it for what it is; all of the best songs from the original GH games but giving them full band capability, it's great.
Also, can I brag that I'm a proud owner of the Rock Band Wired Pro Adapter for Xbox One? 😉
Love Lockdown vs. The Day That Never Comes is on the Dj Hero 2's Main Setlist. Also, not to mention that there was a hendrix 3 pack on world tour
i only owned 1 guitar hero game in my life and it was world tour on the wii when i was a kid. i loved that game and it was one of the first video games that i owned
man i was really hoping rock band metal track pack would be on here. i never really see people talk about it and honestly i think its far underrated. setlist was amazing and especially fun to play on drums like i primarily did.
Metal Track pack is just Rock Band 1 with DLC, it's not a full game
Oooo I thought this was going to be an April Fools video, but this is actually really cool! I will definitely watch this whole video when I get the chance!
I will admit, while 3 was my introduction, World Tour was why I loved this series.
Without World Tour, I would not try to revive my love for the game 13 years later with Clone Hero.
Warriors of rock, the game that I've seen getting shit on for no reason and the one that I must admit feels like the best Guitar hero experience out of all GH/RB games i own. Absolutely brutal setlist and timeless. I'm sad that i only got interested in this game only 4-5 years ago just when the servers were being shutdown slowly. Thank you for putting that at an S tier, it's well deserved.
You can play online on clone hero
I actually have a soft spot for the ds games because last year in my senior of highschool I would bring them and play during class (after my work was done) and it was so goofy but alotta people were genuinely interested in it
GH2 is by far my favorite because of the tracklist and the charting. The only issue I had with it was that the HOPOs were not easily distinguishable. Other than that, it's a perfect game to me. Harmonix are amazing at charting imo.
as someone who's only exposure to GH games was Lego Rock Band, i'm so happy to see it get an A tier. introduced me to loads of great music
Lego Rock Band is a Rock Band game, not a Guitar Hero game. They’re different franchises for a reason.
@@Darkshock25 ah shoot you're right, I really mean them as a genre. It's probably good to have 2 big franchises making the same type of game at the top anyway
I definitely sank an INSANE amount of time into Rock Band Blitz. Its gameplay is a lot like Frequency/Amplitude, and I play Amplitude 2016 to this day (and I'm probably the only person in the world to do that)
at least you could now play drums and vocals on the classic guitar hero songs on smash hits, it was the only reason I played that game, laid to rest, raining blood, TTFAF, beast and the harlot were bangers to play on drums
Ngl this is definitely a tier list out there
I was privledged to have access to the first 3 guitar heros on ps2 and although everyone gives the 3rd games Xbox edition more credit for including the halo themes mjolnir mix but the games were such an interesting way for someone who as a child at the time had no connection to the era most of the games song list took from but still ended up with a love for older rock and alt rock
The third game was my personal favorite with its in game store allowing so much customization from your guitarist, their clothes, the guitar, extra songs it had it all, especially with the third game it’s set pieces for venues and story were on the back burner but consistently stylized and fed towards the main plot and the battles were amazing, even if at the time I had any idea who tf Tom Morello is
I'm sad to see no one ever talk about the warriors of rock guitar, I honestly love it the most out of all of the guitars, including it could change into an axe, I loved the strum bar and the switches
Aerosmith was the first Guitar Hero game I played through and it was a great starting game for me personally. I liked how it set the basics of a Guitar Hero game and just made it as simple as possible. It really helped rope me into the whole series. I played Aerosmith for like 2 years before getting 3, VH, and WoR for Christmas. Now let me add I got into GH in 2012 during it's rise online but I didn't know about it so I didn't even know there was a whole catalog of games, nor did I know that Rock Band was a thing. I was only 7 in 2012 so y'know what do you expect? Either way I do agree where Aerosmith is at on this list I do think it's a bit of an underrated title in the series
Cool fact abt Beatles Rock Band, Dhani Harrison (George Harrison’s son) was like the main reason the game even became a thing, I believe he had liked the Rock Band games before and tried to get The Beatles into the games but like, there was so much that had to go into the game to get the licensing rights which is why the game has such an attention to detail :)
Im not seeing anyone talk about TBRB in comments, but I absolutely love this one, it stuck out to me the most out of all of those rb and gh games
Did not know about GHVH. Checked it out and discovered it has Mean Street with the full outro!
Smash Hits would have been amazing if it was released in like 2015 as nostalgia bait, with songs from all games.
God hearing you talk about Rock Band 2 was so nostalgic for me. I remember being a part of the community at the time. Every week it felt like great songs were coming out. This was around the time I was a senior in high school/freshman in college and I just really cherish that time. Some of the most fun I remember having online.
Remember that one singer guy who realized quickly that singing was the least interesting way to play rock band for youtube viewers so he made a video of him getting whipped to Judas Priest's Pain and Pleasure? That was weird! And I can't forget it no matter how hard I try!!!
I remember I got the trill down enough that I was able to be one of the first to 6* on Surfing with the Alien and get ranked #1 on the leaderboard for a few glorious seconds and feeling so proud of myself.
I remember most people I ran into online only had the base games and free DLC but one time running into a guy who had a ton of DLC as well. We just played together for hours. So fun.
I remember Pepsi did a contest where you could win RB DLC and it was way too easy to win so I ended up drinking so much Pepsi that I still don't like it much to this day. I got the full Stevie Ray Vaughn album that way lmao.
Good video. Really reminded me of some great times.
Also very disappointed you didn't refer to Smash Hits by its proper abbreviation, SHits
FUCK remember when Harmonix appeared on QVC to advertise Beatles Rock Band and you could see formerly Giant Bomb's/currently Nextlander's Alex Navarro on fucking QVC???
My first one was GH On Tour on DS, then my parents bought GH World Tour for my birthday, I still have the guitar, drum kit (yellow cymbal does not work), microphone and game. All for Wii. I did not have the money to buy the more GH games so I cracked my Wii to play ISO games and downloaded almost all of them. Super great memories shredding 🎸🎸
interesting what you brought up about the warriors of rock engine (in regards to not playing it on wii) because that was actually the only version i ever had and I don't really remember it being jank like that, although I was just barely getting through expert songs back then so i might've just chalked it all up to skill issues lol
