    What could've been the best "Guitar Hero" game is the most disappointing.

    Best GH to date.

    By mgools | Review Date: Oct 22, 2015 | PS4

    Pros: Playlist - thank God this isn't a list of all hard rock songs. That was getting old. Style - The live first person look is great, and was a much needed visual upgrade. Guitar - Fun to be learning to play in ... Read Full Review
