Hey, you remember those really annoying Risky Business commercials that Activision was overusing for Guitar Hero World Tour? Well, they’re back for Guitar Hero 5! This time, they feature not one, not two, not three, but ten Playboy Playmates as well as the king himself, Hugh Hefner.
Man, what the hell are these girls doing? They’re not even looking at a TV while playing. The two girls at the end aren’t even hitting the strum button! Watch for yourself after the break.
On a related note, I wonder how much ass Hugh has gotten in his life. It’s got to be in the thousands.
Hamza Aziz, Destructoid's Community Director, has been here since day one. He was born when a tiger coughed up a hairball into a pool of ooze. He was one of the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles before budget cuts. Hamza works as a previews editor and manages a team in San Francisco. To date he has given away tens of thousands of dollars in prizes to readers. What a dick. Actually, Hamza is as kind as he is hairy.

Technically, Playboy is seen as softcore pornography.
To be honest, if the ads appeal to who they want to buy the game, then let them. No amount of advertising spin is going to make me ditch my Rock Band 2 with over £60 of DLC.
So Rock Band uses a new commercial using archival footage of the Beatles, and Guitar Hero uses half-naked chicks, some old fart, and the same basic commercial from last here.
if I didn't buy it when they used the same song and premise with GH4, what the hell is gonna make me buy it with a bunch of playgirls i'll never have strumming guitars randomly?
Hey look, another reiteration of the same game with new songs that could have just been released as DLC. No gameplay differences. No new instruments. No new buttons. This is going the way of DDR with the same control scheme, same gameplay, and new music.
Umm.. That actually sounds like Rock Band, which has tons of DLC, but year old gameplay, no new instruments, no new buttons, etc. Who cares if you have a ton of DLC when you fall asleep playing it because the game is a year old and the gameplay is stale. At least Guitar Hero tries to do something different each time they come out with a game, either with tweaked gameplay, added modes or themed games at least it's something new each time.
HAHAHA. You're a fucking idiot. "No new instruments, no new buttons,etc." Really? You know game consoles use the same basic controller for most games for their entire lifespan, right? They don't add new buttons, even though new buttons are so fucking fun to press. There's not much more gameplay you can squeeze out of pretending to play instruments than, y'know, playing instruments. Anything beyond that kind of ruins the point.
*sigh* Fantastic job with the reading comprehension there. My post was in response to what the other guy was complaining about. I was pointing out that you could say the same things about Rock Band, sans the DLC. Why fault Guitar Hero for "No gameplay differences. No new instruments. No new buttons" when the same applies to the Rock Band series. That was the point I was trying to make.
