Maybe I'm harping but this game is pretty bad, quite a feat considering it's the GH2 engine.

Original art assets: Nope. Everything right down to the shaggy '70s sasquatch on the data settings screen is exactly the same, only palette-swapped to some horrible purple, black and white scheme. There are about half the characters, none of whom have alternate outfits. The venues are all the same with a slight dressing towards the era. The guitars are unchanged, even the unlockables. The load screen background is untouched, the messages are just random jumbles of 80s slang. The exact same "are you sure?" screens pop up for the final song.

Note Charts: If you have any skill with Guitar Hero you will blow through this game without even slowing down. Also all the charts have a disturbing tendency to blend together. I hope you enjoy that single chord progression, because it's the key of every song!

Songs: I didn't notice the poor cover versions in the first two, but there are a number that stand out here as just bad.

This is probably worth $15, but I don't know if I'd pay $20.
