In the '90s, there was no Spotify. There was no Vevo. Traditional music-based channels were a cultural norm, with live shows and music-video rotations alike. But with the advent of the internet, all of that changed. Listeners can now subscribe to a library of countless songs, and music videos are only ever one search away. Our content is no longer curated by the provider, but by us, and the days of thinking “what song will I hear next” are slowly fading away.

At least, for the most part.

Guitar Hero TV is less of a singular game than an entire platform. In October, it will release as part of in an effort to continually tweak an already-released product. So while Freestyle can add songs to its roster throughout Guitar Hero TV's lifespan, it may also apply changes that weren't ready for its initial release.

Much like many other teams in modern years, Activision and Freestyle Games may not be considering this product just a game in the traditional sense, but as a platform that can continuously evolve, regardless of its initial status at release. It still feels like a quality game at the moment, and I think Freestyle has done enough to set it apart from the halcyon days of rhythm-based music games. But I'm interested to see just how Guitar Hero TV evolves over time, as this kind of content model becomes even more prevalent in the video game industry.

From what I've seen so far, Guitar Hero TV may very well be Activision's newest version of the platform model. The curated channels, weekly rotations and a plethora of content is a beast of its own, separate from Guitar Hero Live, and on the game’s Oct. 20 release, Freestyle can see whether they perfected the platform they’ve been working on.

Excerpt: "The Prototype Biohazard Bundles release was a stealthy one, save for a few pieces of leaked information here and there, it just kind of appeared, and now its here for all to consume. Activision was careful with their wording not to say that this was a Remaster, because it isnt. After playing it, I came to the realization that this is a weird form of paid backwards compatibility. It makes you wonder why you should bother, and in most cases you shouldnt."
