Gameplay
The gameplay in guitar hero encore: Rocks the 80s is very similar to
the other guitar heroes. The game modes are career, quick play,
multiplayer what are co-op where someone plays lead and the other plays
bass as all the songs are bass songs and the last multi-player mode is
pro face off and in that mode you and another player plays the same
song on the difficulty and both have the same amount of notes. The last
mode is training what includes tutorials what hasn’t changed since the
first game and the other mode is practice what was first included in
guitar hero 2 and it hasn’t changed since guitar hero 2. The
difficulties of the songs are nicely balanced and fun to play. Overall
the gameplay in guitar hero encore: Rocks the 80s is great like the
other guitar heroes and fun to play.
Graphics
The graphics in guitar hero encore: Rocks the 80s is very similar but
everything has a neon tint on it (e.g. the areas). There are new
outfits for the characters what are 80’s themed and they look nice. The
guitars and skins are the same from guitar hero 2 so they still look
ok. Overall the graphics in guitar hero encore: Rock the 80s looks nice
and goes well with the 80’s theme of the game.
Sound
The sound in guitar hero encore: Rocks the 80s is ok. The song list is
good but could have been better with some better songs but the song
list is ok. They have got some good songs in the song list like
seventeen by winger, electric eye by Judas priest and wrathchild by
iron maiden. Overall the sound in guitar hero encore: Rocks the 80s is
good but could have been a little bit better.
Value
The value for guitar hero: Rocks the 80s is not very good, your paying
full price for only 30 songs and most of the features you get in guitar
hero 2. Overall the value for this game is not very good.
Overall experience
Overall if you are a die-hard guitar hero fan and want to play all the
songs then you should buy this game but the game is a little pricey for
only 30 songs.
