Guitar Hero (Game & Guitar Controller)

Great!

When you wanna rock and roll all night, grab your PS2 and a guitar and become a true hero. Read Review

Guitar Hero gives you all the excitement and thrill of being a rock star without leaving your home! Published by RedOctane, Guitar Hero from the makers of Karaoke Revolution uses a plastic guitar peripheral so that gamers can show their skills at crunching power chords and nailing a tough solo. The guitar features five buttons on the fretboard and a strummer button that can be tapped up or down where the strings would be strummed. Choose from multiple rock characters and jam at concert venues that grow in size as your rock career progresses. You'll start your rock career playing small clubs and bars, but if you play well you'll work your way up to stadiums and arenas. The song list in Guitar Hero boasts tracks every rock fan has in their CD or record collection. Over 30 incredible rock anthems fill every stage of the game. Jam to songs like Iron Man, Ziggy Stardust, Thunderkiss 65, More Than a Feeling, Take Me Out, and I Wanna Be Sedated!

This package of Guitar Hero comes packed with a Guitar Controller, allowing you to jam right after opening the box.
