Guitar Heroes - The History of Rhythm Games - Old-Games.RU Podcast
An episode about rhythm games, or more precisely, guitar simulators. The instrument is incredibly popular, and there have been more than enough games dedicated to it. But how can you make the experience of playing an instrument authentic enough to make you believe you're holding a famous brand's paddle instead of a controller? That's what this podcast episode is about: who was first, who became popular, who made it, who missed out, and what it all turned into. A journey from single-string guitars and picks in printer ports, through Japanese arcades, a battle of giants, to a completely unexpected ending. Something like that.
