It’s been great watching your life change over the last 10 years, Phil! I’m glad you’re more fulfilled and that I could be a part of that! Fragile D will always be my favorite band because we made awesome music and we did it together!!! NOW ON TO 1000 SUBS!!!!
if you want a full band experience play YARG too it's basically clone hero with vocal support and a lot of customisation like the engine and camera with venues/animation support in the future
Man I really feel this video a lot, Guitar Hero was my first approach to music when I first play Legends Of Rock, I was seven back then and it also was a bridge between my father and family through music, beautiful memories
In terms of moderns alternatives, I would also recommend Fortnite Festival, which can be played without a guitar controller, or Yet Another Rhythm Game (YARG), which plays similarly to CH, but with some different options.
The Definitive Edition mod for Guitar Hero World Tour is also a good option for playing GH on PC. There are song packs available for pretty much all of the full band games, including their DLC, and support for custom characters, venues and instruments. Where else are you going to see Walter White, Sandy Cheeks, MrBeast and Lady Dimitrescu performing Bohemian Rhapsody?
Get this man a custom guitar hero controller so he can do this challenge year in and year out on a guitar hero controller that will last. Seriously it’s worth it because mechanical switches and a new strum bar are great. 🤘🏻🔥
I always found it crazy that artists like Prince, Jimmy Paige, and Jack White didn't see any value in rhythm games, especially considering that maybe half of the songs I know and love came from the Guitar Hero and Rock Band games. The number of CDs or individual tracks I bought on iTunes because of these games, the music history that I've familiarized myself with, the appreciation for nuanced details in specific songs... it all comes from these games. Thanks for uploading! It was cool to see your journey with these games as well, and I'm glad your life really turned around from your lowest point (with a little help from a cool little brother and Guitar Hero II of course 😎)
Musics a powerful thing. Wish the execs at these big music corps would realize that and support these types of games cause it’s a great way to fall in love with music regardless of genre. And thank you for enjoying!
I definitely enjoyed the jakey inspired editing and motifs you used throughout the first half or so of the video. Inspiration is always great and I'm not saying that as a diss I just thoroughly enjoy that editing style and script writing. I think alot of things that harmonix said back in their pre 2010s era was really truly about just getting people interested and engaged in music whatever way they could. Even if it was fantastical or more grounded they always seemed to want to stick the love of music into their players. Think this video definitely proves their vision have affected the people the way they wanted to. Alot of nostalgia driven posts about GH and RB are on the rise these days because the kids that were not even 10 playing these games now have bills and such. This video demonstrates the love for that single idea of delivering music in a fun way. There seems to be alot of content out nowadays that is nostalgic for the sake of it but there's a real purpose to this video and why the love for this seemingly minor thing is actually important to so many, very much a breathe of fresh air content wise. So yea i fucked with the vid
@@bigdogzantho this is hands down the most impassioned praise I’ve received because it’s exactly what I hope to do. I’m so glad you dug it! And oh you can tell I’m a Jakey fan? I didn’t mean to limewire his style I promise lol
Great story - I worked on all the Harmonix games from the original Guitar Hero through Rock Band 4, and love hearing how these games have influenced people to pick up instruments and play them. We actually added the real-guitar mode in RB3, which attempted to teach you how to play guitar, because a) we kind always did things we thought were cool even if we didn't think they'd sell (in fact, our estimates for the original GH were 100k units, and we almost cut multiplayer because "Who's going to have two guitars or a friend with one?") and b) Led Zeplin had said they'd get involved when you could play the game with a real guitar. It's unlikely you'll ever see these games start up again. The startup costs for making instruments was insane, the inventory risk massive (GH and RB lost money for their publishers at the end of the day because of overprinting), and the costs of licensing all the music made the profits vs. traditional games much smaller. It brought in crap tons of money, but most of it flowed right back out again. Also, somewhere at the bottom of the ocean are 30k of the original GH1 guitars, which fell off a shipping container in the first shipment. I always wonder if in some distant future they'll be discovered and people will make up stories about what they were for.
5:12 honestly I thought back to Rock Band 3's pro mode and how much potential it could have had if it was more polished and if the game just sold well in general. Harmonix's objective with Guitar hero (at least the ones they worked on) and Rock band was to allow people to have a new appreciation for the music, so having a mode teaching people how to actually play the songs on a real guitar or piano, and releasing peripherals that could be used as actual MIDI instruments was a natural evolution of that concept. Of course now the only way to use said pro mode (aside from the drums) is on Rock band 3 (emulation or just the console) but hopefully YARG can fill the void since they're actively working on adding the pro modes to the game.
@@SpectacularSpiderFan yeah I actually had that wacky 108 button guitar for rock band 3 and I was so excited for it until it turned out to just not work that well. There’s so much room in this market for tools like that but just no one with the money or vision to lead it in this climate. I hope we see someone break through. Even if it has to be Fortnite. 🤣
i must say that guitar hero has had great impact on my music taste. I didnt grow up with the games and probably only tried to learn to play first time when I was 16 but since then I've played so much guitar hero (mostly clone hero), collected guitars, had gatherings and met new friends because of playing Clone Hero. And it grew my music taste and probably also got me into buying cds. I like these games
Guitar Hero is why i picked up the guitar as well. I still play the games and Clone Hero and have been playing guitar for 2 years. Guitar Hero truly made the world a better place
Another banger video with banger music. Bangerception, if you will. I love your bday tradition - such an amazing connection. Also, as someone who is consistently booed off the stage by the virtual audience, I salute you 🫡 love you, Phil!
Fortnite Festival has been slowly reviving interest in these type of rhythm games. It has support for guitar controllers and the Riffmaster came out earlier this year, with CRKD (which is comprised of former Red Octane employees) teasing their own guitar controller sometime next year. Could be the copium talking, but hopefully this means we see a Guitar Hero revival in the coming years
Very good video. And i mean hey its not only clone hero thats keeping it alive. Fortnite Festival has been doing it as well and im all for it. Especially with the songs they keep adding in
@@JettandSasuke I gotta go try out that Fortnite festival version. I only became aware of it AS I was making the vid. The fact they keep adding stuff is really exciting and kinda crazy.
Wow, another great video! Not that I'm surprised.😅. I nearly cried TWICE during this, so I don't think you need emotional manipulation music, your authenticity is more than enough.❤ However, would love for you to have the money for that!!!😂 1000 subs, let's go...
My favorite thing about Rock Band was the drums!!!! Not just in the game, but because the drums have been the most important part of my life since God gave me my drumming ability when I was 3 years old!!! At 28, I still always ask to go to Guitar Center to look in the Drum section!!!!!!! Was I the best drummer in Rock Band? Of course not!!!! But I still loved it just the same!!!!!!!!!
@@KasorePhil It's great. They even have a current official setlist with pretty good variance in genre. It's nice to actually be able to play the vocals I'm charting
While Clone Hero is great, i don't see it as a replacement for the older games, they all have their individual charm, and especially Guitar Hero 2 just brings you right back into the 2000s, and it's still fun to play even if it's damn hard compared to Clone Hero
@@KasorePhilthere's a pretty vibrant community around running Rock Band 3 Deluxe on RPCS3, as well. It's how I play, and I'm one of the people who worked on RB3DX.
