Guitar Hero Live with Guitar Controller (PS4)

Product Information

The core gameplay of the Guitar Hero games is a rhythm video game similar to Konami's Guitar Freaks [39] and to a lesser extent Harmonix's previous music games such as Frequency and Amplitude. The guitar controller is recommended for play, although a standard console controller can be used instead. [98] [99] However, the guitar controller has been required for play ever since the inclusion of drum and vocal parts in the series. The game supports toggling the handedness of the guitar, allowing both left-handed and right-handed players to utilize the guitar controller. [98] [99] a b c d e Steffan, Chris (2009-01-22).

No plans have been announced for special bundled versions of Guitar Hero: Metallica with the instrument controllers within North America, though Activision does plan to release Metallica-branded faceplates for existing instrument controllers as well as a double-bass pedal attachment for the drum controller. [10] Guitar Hero: Metallica will also support the wireless microphones from Lips through a future title patch. [26] A European-exclusive bundle includes the game, wireless guitar controller, and Metallica faceplate. [27] Promotion [ edit ] Cacho, Gieson (2009-12-18).
