![]() The same can’t be said about Guitar Hero Live. That’s obviously a very specific example, though: most wireless last-gen controllers should work with Rock Band 4 without any hassle. That means my trusty Guitar Hero II Xplorer – my favourite guitar controller ever and the one I’ve used for every Xbox 360 Guitar Hero and Rock Band game – had to finally go into retirement. It isn’t completely perfect, mind: because of Microsoft’s device-signing process wired controllers won’t work. My wireless Guitar Hero 3 Xbox 360 guitar works with the Xbox One version of Rock Band 4. ![]() ![]() Rock Band 4 prides itself on being backwards compatible with a lot of old Rock Band and Guitar Hero peripherals and for the most part this is spot on. Sleep well, sweet prince of plastic video game instruments Any game that lets you make use of your old equipment without having to buy new stuff has to be a good thing, then. Though this isn’t necessarily a deal-breaker for anyone coming into either series for the first time, there are still plenty of houses around the world with plastic guitars gathering dust from the previous generation. Having bought both games at launch (with my own cash, I should stress) and spent a couple of months with each now, I reckon I’m in a good position to give you my unbiased, detailed opinion on which of the two you should go for. The question, then, is which is best: Guitar Hero Live or Rock Band 4? Not everyone’s as obsessed with this genre as I am, though, so it’s understandable that the vast majority of gamers would probably only want to buy one of these games. ![]() It goes without saying, then, that the return of both series in 2015 was a massive deal for me, and the fact that both actually seemed significantly different from each other made things even more interesting. I’m an enormous fan of rhythm action games, and was still happily buying every new Guitar Hero and Rock Band game even while everyone else was losing interest in the genre. ![]()
