That’s not ideal, but it’s a great trade-off for having access to this much music all at once. You can’t own a track, however - just play it. The channels give you access to more than 200 songs (as of launch), but if you want to play a particular one, you’ll have to spend tokens, which you can either spend money on or earn by playing music in the two channels. I’ve stayed in the channels for hours at a time, switching between them if I’ve already played a certain selection that day, and I’m going to have a hard time going back to anything else. I couldn’t pick which tracks I encountered, but as someone who likes to discover music, this is now my favorite way to play. It’s a good incentive to do well, and it’s just the right amount of competition motivating you to improve and play on higher difficulties instead of coasting on easier settings and getting bored.īeing able to turn on my console, load the game up, and immediately play three different songs without having to deal with menus or loading times feels absolutely magical. The better you perform, the more experience and coins you’ll earn.
Coins let you buy upgrades for your guitar (like score bonuses) and play tokens (which you use to play a single song on demand) while experience unlocks new power-ups and new looks for your player card and fretboard. Whenever you play a song in GHTV, you’ll also enter a 10-person leaderboard. Playing on the channels will give you coins and experience. The stream is queued in advance, and you can even look at a schedule to see what kinds of music will play at what time. Both channels are 24-hour streams from a massive new collection of artists, complete with commercials for tracks you can play on demand as well as MTV/VH1-style bumpers. And then, you’ll just play whatever track is on at the time, with its music video as the background. When you log into GHTV, you’ll jump right into one of two “channels” - a more intense, metal-oriented channel or a lighter, poppier one. Luckily, Guitar Hero TV, the online portion of the game, is exactly the kind of momentous change I was looking for. I’ve had more than my share of working my way through tracks by difficulty. If Guitar Hero Live just offered a new collection of songs to complete, I probably wouldn’t have been interested in playing it at all - even with a new guitar controller to make the game feel more novel.
