Guitar hero is officially dead

[GrooveMan.exe]

Consider that rhythm games in general that aren't one-off games put out a large number of sequels. Beatmania IIDX was on 13 when I last checked, Pop'n is at 16, and DDR's probably at about 20, if you count console spinoffs.

But personally, I never liked Guitar Hero much. It took on so few gameplay staples that Konami's Bamani games established. Telling you how accurate your hits are; a mixture of songs made specifically for the game and licenced songs. A wide, wide range of genres to choose from (Guitar Hero suffers from a limited genre range like woah; Rock Band is apparently slightly better).

But then, I love DJ Hero. A more intuitive peripheral, a wide range of musical flavours, and track (and therfore stepcharts) made exclusively for the game. Wonderful.
