Sooner or later, you had to know that a big hair version of Guitar Hero had to hit the stores.

Guitar Hero Encore Rocks the 80’s is the third installment of the Guitar Hero Series.

This game has the best track listing yet, with 16 tracks of 80’s metal, plus 14 additional tunes from the 80’s!

If you have played Guitar Hero II, you will find that the club scenes are exactly the same, which is a bit of a disappointment.

The game itself is quite fun, although a bit too easy (in the easy mode). I was able to whip through the complete song list in a couple of hours, hitting 5 stars on every song, in the first or second try.

I have been playing this game since it first came out, and have enjoyed each new installment. Guitar Hero Encore, Rocks the 80’s is the perfect game for the 80’s hard rock fan.

I can’t think of a better way to get in touch with your inner rock star!
