Band Hero vs Guitar Hero Live
Band Hero
Band Hero lets you create a band of you and your friends, that then gives you over 60 songs to play and sing together. You can drop into the shoes of a huge range of artists, and use them in a variety of songs as your avatar. Play guitar, drums and sing your way through some much loved classics, and new releases as you play the career or more casually in a brilliant addition to the much loved music making series.Discover a whole new group playing experience where you can just drop in or out of the game in the middle of a song. Unlock new songs by completing the previous one and play online or offline with your friends for fun or high scores. With new instruments, songs and characters to be there is a lot for you to enjoy in this fun game.
Guitar Hero Live
Guitar Hero Live is the Guitar Hero that Activision came up with after a long 5-year hiatus in the series. Featuring a recorded "live" audience, this game brings you a lot closer to actually being on stage playing to a crowd than ever before. In addition, your bandmates will react as they play alongside you as well. Try the game's first-person view and you'll get to feel like one of the band members as you play!One of the hallmarks of the Guitar Hero series, aside from its iconic guitar controller, is the insane music variety. From Ed Sheeran to System of a Down, to even indie bands, you can find a ton of your favorite songs to strum your plastic guitar to in this game. The game also has a multiplayer feature called Rivals where you can have a showdown with another player online. The best part about this game though is the Guitar Hero TV (GHTV). This allows your friends to enjoy the music video which is live-streamed in the background as you play to the music.
Playing music in front of what supposedly is a live audience is very different from playing for the sake of getting a perfect combo score. This is exactly the experience that Guitar Hero Live is trying to provide through its gameplay and it did a really great job of it.
