Amazon. com Product DescriptionStart a Band. . . the Guitar Hero Way Guitar Hero World Tour transforms music gaming by expanding Guitar Hero’s signature guitar gameplay into a cooperative band experience that combines advanced wireless instruments with online and offline gameplay modes including online Band Career and 8-player “Battle of the Bands,” which allows two full bands to compete head-to-head online. The game features a slick redesigned guitar, an authentic electronic drum kit, and a microphone, as well as a Music Studio music creator that lets players compose, record, edit and share their own rock ‘n’ roll anthems. Wireless Instruments New to GHWT is a redesigned, more responsive guitar controller, which features a touch-sensitive slide bar on the neck that allows the player to play through certain song passages without needing to strum. Check out the drum kit featuring three drum pads, two raised cymbals, and a bass kick pedal. The drum controller combines larger and quieter, velocity-sensitive drum heads with soft rubber construction to deliver authentic bounce back and is easy to set up, move, break down and store. Be the Next Great Songwriter Music Studio lets players express their musical creativity by giving them access to a full complement of tools to create digital music from scratch utilizing the guitar controller and drum kit. Players can create their tracks and then play them in-game or share the recordings with the entire Guitar Hero community through GHTunes. GHTunes allows other gamers from around the world to download and play the community’s original tracks. Available to PlayStation 3 gamers is Line 6’s guitar tone technology, enabling them to use amps, cabs, and effects from the Line 6 POD. Create the Band Budding rock stars can live out their rock ‘n’ roll fantasies by playing either a single instrument or any combination of instruments, in addition to the full band experience. When rocking as part of a band, up to four players can jam together in quickplay or as they progress through a career. Both band and single-player careers feature non-linear progression giving artists the option to change difficulty and instruments with a variety of different gigs available at any time. Never Jam Solo Again Virtual musicians in need of band mates can take their careers online forming worldwide ensembles so no rock star ever has to play a gig solo. Plus, GHWT adds a “Battle of the Bands” modes, which allows eight players to join online and challenge each other band-to-band to establish global supremacy. Customize Everything The character creator allows gamers to create a rock star with style as unique as their own. Absolute customization from the clothes, to the facial and body structure, to the tattoos and accessories, players are encouraged to unleash their inner rock legend.

An ugly, stupid knock-off of Harmonix’s Rock Band. How can mo-capped characters still look so strange and unnatural? And still using the (inherited) “Guitar Hero” brand for a full band game? Silly.
Rating: 1 / 5
We have the rock group one, the rock group two and l' excursion of the world of héros of guitar. You have certainly more songs on the rock group, and a fresh device which you coÔ will tera that $5 is you can import all the songs of the rock group one in the rock group two thus you must only play in mode of the rock group two. The MIC, the drums and two guitars play of course both systèmes, aucuns problèmes. L' interface for the héros guitar is well better than the rock group. There remain abundance of the songs, but if you want the best of the two worlds, both obtain.
Estimate: 4/5
B Vaughn déclare that its GH: The WEIGHT beats drum of don& #039; work of T with the rock group. Quelqu' can-être; one should say to him that the GH and RB are made by the companies (of competition) completely différentes.
Estimate: 5/5
Very fun game but poor manufacturing. I had to send the drums back to Aklaim and get new ones shipped.

I was a huge Guitar Hero fan. Now, it all ends after I played this. . .
It all started out when I heard about Guitar Hero 2. Never heard about Guitar Hero until a Guitar Hero 2 commercial came out. The game looked cool, so I tried it out. It was a blast. After reaching Expert, I became hooked.
Then Guitar Hero 3 came out. It was executed amazingly. I love it when my fingers are all over the fretboard. What I didn’t like is the change in the hammer-on/pull-off system. But I love the very challenging songs.
And guess what? So many people complained about how songs were too hard for them.
And here we are, with the disaster of Guitar Hero World Tour. After just waiting to get this game, it seems like they just rushed this game out the door with faulty hardware and terrible game decisions.
The song list (a very important element of the game) has been rushed. It seems like they just picked out random songs to throw in instead of choosing them carefully. After playing through several songs, I almost fell asleep. All I was getting was really boring ’70s songs that I’m sure not many people really care about. Some of these songs are in Spanish! Who the heck made the setlist!? Aggro? Shiver? One Armed Scissor? Good God? Toy Boy? Etc. ? WTF???? I really started to get bored of these songs, so I just went back to Guitar Hero 3 for a while, then finished up Guitar Hero World Tour. After completing the game and looking at the entire setlist of unlocked songs, VERY few appeal to me, very few are enjoyable as a group, and very few are challenging for experienced players. Come on! Where’s the real artists? Dragonforce? Buckethead? Guns ‘n’ Roses? AC/DC? I only enjoy a few songs in this game. And most of those few are already in Rock Band!
The difficulty. Expert on GHWT = [. . . ] any guitar game. All songs are way too easy for me to play. I’m a person who likes challenging songs. Unfortunately, World Tour is really lacking in these. When developing this game, I think they focused WAY too much on making this game “family-friendly” that they forgot to think about us hardcore gamers.
Even worse! They add a new, pointless addition to the guitar. They add in a slider bar, which is very difficult to use. Yes, you can use the frets instead, but the slider notes seem too mushy due to the fact you don’t have to strum on them, even after missing one (slider notes are the #1 reason I got rid of this game). It just destroys the “Guitar Hero feeling” when playing on guitar. Rarely anyone I played with online used the slider bar. That’s saying “No one likes slider notes. ”
Even the new model of the guitar is terrible. The start/select button layout has been poorly designed. With a HUGE select button and 2 start buttons (all so close together and close to the strum bar), I am frequently pushing those buttons on accident at random times. This is a nuisance, especially to us gamers who 2-hand-tap on complex parts. Also, I hate how they altered the strum bar. It’s more mushy and has a less powerful click that makes it harder to strum quicker on fills.
Then comes the vocal system. Terrible. When it scores you, it scores for EVERY second of your singing. Even on Beginner difficulty, 100% is pretty much impossible. Props to Rock Band for having to sing “phrases” to 100% a song on vocals.
Note tracks are poorly laid out. Whenever I sing vocals on the song “Monsoon,” I can clearly see errors in the charting. So, I have to sing the song a little differently in order to get it right. And it’s not just this song. Many songs have poorly laid out note tracks. Most songs are overcharted, undercharted, and misscharted.
I do not own the drums, so I can’t say anything about that.
So, why 2 stars instead of 1, you ask? Well I’m giving them a small amount of credit for at least not FORCING you to use the slider bar on the guitar.
I was thinking about Guitar Hero: Metallica (I’m a huge fan of them and they have very hard songs for players). But after finding out that they will still add in slider notes, I am done. I will no longer buy a Guitar Hero game from Activision, because they destroyed Guitar Hero.
I’m going to switch to Rock Band from now on. I traded Guitar Hero World Tour back to GameStop and got myself a copy of Rock Band 2. I do not regret this at all. Rock Band 2 > Guitar Hero World Tour. Good job Activision, thanks for buying the best video game franchise and doing nothing but ruin it. I’m not buying any Guitar Hero games until they either remove slider notes, or have an option in the game where you can convert them into normal/hammer-on notes, which I don’t think is gonna happen and Rock Band 2 has better gameplay anyway. Well, so long Guitar Hero, it’s been fun.
