    When I first played it I was not used to the whole new button layout but after time you adapt pretty fast and it becomes really entertaining! A def!

    I really like the guitar design and the way the buttons are placed. Unfortunately, the music selection on the disc is pretty limited and the music service they used to have has been shut down. So, don't spend too much money on this if you buy it. I didn't.

    I like the new button design on the guitar. A good change from the previous guitars. Game is a lot of fun to play. I need to buy a 2nd guitar.

    Before i say anything critical i have to say, the game was amazing, i play it whenever i feel like chilling out and just listening to some cool tracks while i sit on my bed. The music selection is amazing and the way its presented is great. Now the way you play the guitar is hard, you will need some time to get used to it, and a lot of practice.

    The gameplay is pretty amazing, and it urges you to continue through the whole game. But it's a very short game. I first got the game when the sun was about to set, and i finished it before I had to go to bed at 9:00. The best you can do after finishing it is doing free play. But that's it!

    New guitar takes a little to get used to but very refreshing twist. The On Demand like music channel is addicting and fresh for the series.

    I was definitely humbled when i started playing this. I was decent at Guitar Hero when i used to play almost 10 years ago but this is a totally different beast. You have 6 buttons, 3 above the other and its a bit challenging. So throw away whatever you know about Guitar Hero and sit down and enjoy a challenge

    For the price it feels shallow. The live crowd and band thing is really neat, but doesn't make up for the awful soundtrack. Not much rock, metal, punk...guitar hero now has Katy perry and Rihanna. Ugg.

    I enjoy the new guitar hero controler but it takes some getting used to. My biggest complaint is when my girlfriend and I try to connect two guitars to the ps4 to play split screen, it is not user friendly. Also having to grind the main game to get points to unlock "free play" songs is annoying/not fun.
