You've got Band Hero, DJ Hero, Beatles Rock Band, Rapstar — the list of upcoming video games is a music lover's dream. But with all these new music-focused games, is there still room for the arguable originator, Guitar Hero, set to release its fifth iteration next month?

The new GH will feature a new guitar and the ability to import old Guitar Hero songs, and it will support four players for simultaneous playing.
I tell you, I want every single one of the music games I listed off, but I have a lot of excitement to go around and look forward to my original fave, Guitar Hero. But I guess it could be just nostalgia, you know?
What about you?

NOSTALGIA?! THE GAME CAME OUT IN TWO THOUSAND AND FIVE. The entire series is less than five years old!
1Guitar Hero sucks. Rock Band is the hotness. Guitar Hero is ugly and boring. I'll take the original whole band game. And adding the Beatles?! I can hardly wait!
2I love Guitar Hero. I don't own any of them yet, but as soon as I've got some money I'm definitely buying one.
3I have a Wii and have played Guitar Hero 3 at a friend's before and have been interested in getting one of these games but usually wait til they go down in price. I just noticed Rock Band 2 went down on Amazon to $99 now, so I think I might finally get it (I like that it has such a large collection of downloadable songs), but since Rock Band Beatles and Guitar Hero 5 come out next month I'm waiting a little bit longer. Right now I'm thinking get the Rock Band 2 bundle and then just get the Rock Band Beatles game (since it's $250 for the bundle which seems really high to me). For those who've played both the Rock Band and Guitar Hero games, which is your favorite? I'm also really interested in DJ Hero when that comes out.
4never played Guitar Hero, but i do love Tap Tap Revenge on the iPhone.
