For example:

1) Pokon Leaf Green and Fire Red for the Gameboy advance were hits because they were updated versions of the classic Gameboy color games.

2) Final Fantasy 7 was made again for the PSP because it had been a hit.


Would any of you be for or against this idea? I know a couple questions I would have is, if the charts are exactly the same......will the engines be the same...for example the strum limit and early whammy being available for the pre GH3 versions only, but not being present in the GH3 version.

I'm pretty sure the first 3 games you wouldn't be able to do since Harmonix no longer has the license for Guitar Hero. There's also the issue of re-licensing all the songs that were in the game, which costs more money to do. Would it be cool to have the old games get an update? Yes of course! Most likely will never happen tho...

Edit: can this be put in the Misc GH Discussion category please?

Edit 2: another point is they would either have to make adapters for the new consoles or make new controllers for the new consoles, which would cost even more.

+1 for moving this to Misc Guitar Hero category.

But, as 2003041 made great points about why this most likely will never happen. Yet would it include a fixed GH1 HO/PO system/SP lag? Also with the failure of GH:L and well Harmonix had the license for the first three games. Sure it'd be cool. Yet... with the new title update on GH:L this most likely won't happen. We saw the disappearance of all the DLC (GH3-onward)

Also the issue of a new controller if they aren't released on the Pre-gen.

So all in all, highly doubtful it happens. Which is completely fine for myself, and probably many others if those issues were fixed (Broken HO/PO system/SP Lag on GH1. The HO/PO glitch on GH2. Which not sure if it was fixed in 80's) It'd be interesting to see, and... being me, would probably buy it if score-tracking was available and for some reason Activision did this.

They could release the entirety of the DLC GH3-Onwards... on a disc, that'd be pretty cool being someone that picked up... maybe ~20 songs. Out of however many it ended up being.

tl;dr Don't think this is happening anytime soon, if ever.

It would be nice, but I doubt it will ever happen

Pretty sure it was.

Activision/Harmonix wouldn't be able to do it. It'd have to be handled by the fans. A couple of guys were able to launch a ripoff of Nintendo WFC after it was shut down for the purpose of extending online play of Mario Kart Wii, surely we could find a way to put the DLC back up cuz surely someone has all the DLC, and I have dreams that will never be fulfilled.

But I don't think re-issues of the legacy games would be possible.

IMO Guitar Hero 2 is still the strongest game in the series. If nothing since has managed to top it, what'd be the point of remaking it. You can't improve perfection ;D


As for GH1, it would be nice to play those songs with a HOPO system that, you know, works XD
