After an avalanche of Guitar Hero and Rock Band iterations, spin-offs and tie-ins over the years, it seemed that peripheral-based music games had finally, truly died. These stats aren't bad for two franchises that fizzled out in spectacular fashion around 2011.
Guitar Hero Live, which launched two weeks later, came in sixth. When it released in October, Rock Band 4 earned the fourth-largest amount of money of any game on the market, according to the NPD. I enjoy playing music games exclusively with other people by my side, looking as ridiculous as I do.Ģ015 is the 10-year anniversary of Guitar Hero, the granddaddy of peripheral-based music games, and it signals the return of the genre after roughly four years of radio silence.
I don't regularly boot up Rock Band 4 and bang on the drums for a few hours by myself, largely because I don't crave that experience when I'm alone. I don't play Rock Band 4 or Guitar Hero Live the same way I do League of Legends, Life is Strange or Fallout. In my house, peripheral-heavy music games are more like board games than video games. My boyfriend and I store the plastic guitars in that closet, and as I slide them out, brushing past jacket sleeves and cardboard boxes, even the puppies understand what's going on. As the heavy, wooden door slides open with a twist and a pop, my two tiny dogs run over, tails wagging, because opening that closet means one of three things: The pups are going for a walk, I need to sweep, or it's time to play Rock Band 4. The puppies always get excited when I open the hall closet.
