The Riffmaster Guitar controller is a great vehicle for your gaming nostalgia, but it already feels like it's in its "greatest hits" era

GamesRadar+ Verdict The PDP Riffmaster guitar controller has reawakened Guitar Hero nostalgia in many a gamer in recent years. It's been over a decade since that franchise launched a new game, but with modern alternatives like Clone Hero and Fortnite Festival now in the mix, the Riffmaster has been one of few controllers to provide people with a way to play them. Pros - + Multiple QOL benefits from older Guitar controllers - + Foldable design - + Fret buttons feel excellent - + Plays great Cons - - Hollow build quality for the money - - Strumming bar could be clickier - - Fairly plain design compared to the competition - - No official face plates (still) Why you can trust GamesRadar+ Having been born in the late 90s, I, like many a gamer, have a library of memories from the Guitar Hero days. When I did my preview of the Riffmaster, PDP had told me the price was going to be $129.99 / £129.99, which it did launch to.
