‘Guitar Hero Live’ Announced, Coming This Fall!

Briefly: We were all pretty excited last month when Harmonix officially announced Rock Band 4, and today Activision followed suit with another entry into the Guitar Hero series called Guitar Hero Live.

And with that, the over-saturation of games and plastic must-buy-to-play controllers that led to the death of the music game industry just a few years back, is all of a sudden relevant again.

At least this time around, the games do look vastly different, with Guitar Hero Live focusing on an actual concert experience with real crowds and real reactions (as well as GHTV, which sounds interesting), while Rock Band 4 looks to bring back the classic game that we all loved, but with the tons and tons of tracks that we’ve all purchased over the years.

In any case, with both games launching this year, it’ll be very interesting to see the rhythm game war begin all over again. Are you more of a Guitar Hero or Rock Band fan? Be sure to let us know in the comments below.
