Changes under Neversoft
The first game in the series developed by Neversoft, Guitar Hero III, was very different from the first three games in the series. The Hammer ons were much easier to do than in previous games and the overall difficulty was higher. Guitar Hero World tour was even more of a change from earlier Guitar Hero games. Like Rock Band, World Tour features drum and microphone peripherals.
