The GameDaily One-Minute Review

We briefly got a glimpse of Guitar Hero when it was announced back at E3, and assumed that it would be a pretty good "collector's item" for those deeply invested in rhythm/action games. However, the final product has become an ultimate surprise, as it's almost immediately accessible to anyone with two hands. Guitar Hero packs one of the better soundtracks in recent memory, as well as a progressive gameplay style that never gets old and packs with it an incredibly impressive guitar peripheral. Sure, the cost may set you back, but the hours you'll invest in the game will prove undoubtedly entertaining. This is the sleeper of the year right here.
