Is it still worth playing?

Neversoft's 2007 rhythm game for the PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, Wii and Xbox 360. It is played with a guitar shaped controller: you hit colored frets in time with the notes, with sustains, chords, hammer ons and pull offs. A streak of 10 notes raises the multiplier up to four times, Star Power doubles it, and missed notes drain the performance meter. The career has eight tiers and 42 songs, with boss battles against Tom Morello, Slash and Lou the Devil, and there are co op career, Face Off and Battle modes with Battle Powers, for 73 playable songs in total. Strumming and fretting in time with the notes, with a multiplier that builds on a streak, still makes each song a test of timing today.
