Is Guitar Hero - Greatest Hits still worth playing in 2026?
A compilation from Beenox, known in the West as Greatest Hits or Smash Hits, this Guitar Hero gathers the most notable tracks of the series' early entries, re-recorded as master versions and adapted for multi instrument play. The idea of reliving the classics with drums, bass and vocals offers a fine band session, carried by a solid tracklist. The absence of new content and the best of status limit the interest for those who already own the original entries. A good rhythm game for series fans and lovers of multiplayer instrumental sessions.
