PS2 Review: Guitar Hero Encore: Rocks the 80s - Page 2

With the lack of extra songs, you really feel like this was just a game to fill in the gap between Guitar Hero II and Guitar Hero III. Although, if you are a fan of the 80s and absolutely LOVE the Guitar Hero series, this is obviously a good buy.

Hitting the Notes

  • Rockin' 80's Soundtrack
  • Great Multiplayer

Missing the Notes

  • No extras
  • Nothing new from Guitar Hero II
  • Small cast of characters
  • Feels like its a game to fill in the gap between the GH2 and GH3.
  • Steep price ($50)

Guitar Hero Encore: Rocks the 80s is rated T (Teen) by the ESRB for Lyrics.

    I'm pretty sure Encore is just to tide us over until later this year when they release Guitar Hero 3. And sure, it doesn't have that much extra stuff, but it is still a blast. I don't know about you, but I don't stop playing a game once I beat it. If I did, I'd probably rent from gamefly and not buy any games. So it's fun, but then I'm obsessed with 80s music haha.

    I admit, it is a fun game. I haven't stopped playing it, especially with family. Like I said, Multi-player surely saved this game.
