And, compared to the most recent wireless controller, there is no more touch-sensitive fret bar. The back and start buttons are huge, especially the back button. I like that it keeps the weight distribution centered, and helps the neck feel more solid, ever so slightly. The big difference is in the battery enclosure (moved into the guitar neck), which is less convenient than the simple back panel of previous guitar, but barely so. Likewise, the whammy bar is identical to the most recent previous model. You should continue playing with the guitar for at least two hours before worrying about poor responsiveness.) The strum bar is slightly louder, which can be a bother, especially in quiet settings. During this period, they’ll feel slightly unresponsive. (Note to new buyers, if you don’t already know, it takes about an hour to break in the new buttons. The buttons feel just as good as the previous two guitars. They’re a snap (literally) to put back on.Įverything else is much tighter. That center mass makes the guitar feel solid, more than the others, though I’ve dropped it twice now and both times the attached sides unclipped and fell off. It’s more convenient to move the guitar slightly by picking it up on the center, where the weight is. The body has grown and evolved, and I like the openings where the sides connect to the base. So long as I’m focused on playing well and not worrying about the buttons, I’m happy, and the Rock Band Guitars never gave that satisfactory feeling.Īs for the wireless Guitar Hero guitars, not much has changed. No one cares about realism when there’s 50 notes to play in 3 seconds on the screen. The buttons feeling like buttons, something durable and curiously enjoyable to push. The resounding click of the strum bar gives confidence in each stroke, so I never feel like I didn’t strum, and more importantly, I know when I didn’t. My affinity towards Activision and Neversoft’s guitars has been based on two major factors: the clicky strum bar and the very button-esque buttons. The original developers of Guitar Hero, Harmonix, took a different route for their music games, and frankly I can’t stand those models. ![]() Numerous changes occurred since the earliest model, each getting closer to perfection. The first plastic instrument for the Xbox 360 (not pictured) was wired, but each subsequent guitar is wireless. The Guitar Hero franchise is built on, well, guitars. ![]() How good? We compare it to the past Guitar Hero guitars to find out. While it doesn’t compare to the real guitar for the upcoming Rock Band 3, it’s pretty darn good in it’s own right. Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock, like all the past Guitar Hero titles, comes with a brand new wireless guitar controller.
