Game Review : Guitar Heroes Live

Assalammu'alaikum family, friends, readers and followers of this blog.

Once again, another review to write! Alhamdulillah..

I finally took the plunge to buy us a PS4 as our anniversary gift (shared though as he will have lots of games to play, while I will be stuck with just 1 or 2 games. So ya..

I had always wanted to have my hands on GH for the longest time. I am not musically inclined, but I like the idea of being a "rock star", you know.. for fun sake.

So on New Year's Eve, we went to GameWerks, the plan really, is to just recce, do same calculations and sleep on it before deciding to buy it. Sony now have a few promotions going on so their licensed distributors have awesome packages too. There are GTA set, Monopoly set and FIFA set. Mostly below $600 at this shop.

In case you don't know, GameWerks is located at Blk 443, Clementi Ave 3 #01-79 S120443. Their service is always top notch, there is no hard selling. They are not stingy with their knowledge, and they (all the staff) are gamers as well, and have played most of the games and can educate you with the pros and cons of any game. They are awesome people and we just keep coming. You should give them a shot as well.

We bought the GTA set at S$555, bought extra controllers at S$79.90, and we are good to go! We wanted to get the GH but it was out of stock and would only arrive the following week.

We got hype and watch youtube of GH. Oh boy, we got hooked alright, so we decide to visit GAMEXTREME at JEM to get the Guitar Heroes. We initially thought it would limit us to just a few songs, and oh boy, we did struggle in just the tutorial itself. Just suddenly my fingers had their own world!

It was real fun! We are just at difficulty level Casual, and I tried Regular briefly but I struggled like mad coping with the up and down chord. I went from AWESOME (in casual mode) to HORRIBLE (in regular mode). haha..

But fun nonetheless. I admire those who are at the the regular level and beyond. My fingers keep getting lost while trying to keep up with the up and down and the double and the strumming. Gosh..

We might just get another set of guitar so we can play tag team and challenge.

So this, we got it at S$129.90 
If you play "LIVE" you will be on stage with audience who will cheer if you do it well, and would boo if you play badly. My best is having 215 streaks. Most likely because it was a more relaxed song. Hehe.. My worse is probably just 10streaks or so. It takes practice! 

If you play "TV" they will put on random songs and you play along competing with other online players. Which is also cool!

I just hope they can slow-mo the "regular" difficulty to probably slow down a little until we get a good grasp, like go on the normal speed once we achieve 25 streaks, because from "casual" with just the bottom chords, it suddenly goes both upper and bottom chord and both at the same time. We were so drowned! 

Otherwise, it is an awesome and very worthy to buy! May I just warn you that it is addictive, because we kept on going till 2.15am claiming it is the last song but kept going because the next song is a good song, and on we dragged. LOL! 

Until we stop playing,
Jun

Wassalam
