Guitar Hero: World Tour (Xbox 360)

I have been playing Guitar Hero: World Tour for around 10 months now and as it is still a firm favourite of mine I thought now would be the best time to review it as I have spent many hours battling away on the guitar to qualify me enough to give an informative review. History Of The Game: This game was developed by Neversoft and published by Red Octane & Activision and has been available in the UK since November 2008. This game is available on platforms Xbox 360, Wii, Playstation 2 & Playstation 3 so the option to play this game should be available to most console owners. A game for the Microsoft Windows & Apple Macintosh is scheduled for release ...  Read the complete review

Well where to begin with this game, there is no doubt that this is the best one i have played in the guitar hero line. Well thats because I havent played 5 yet. The gameplay is so much easier than the previous versions with the ability to pick a setlist instead of a single track. The addition of drums make for a challenge as you have to get use to a different type of instrument not like playing bass. The drums are very difficult when you begin with but stick in there you will get the hang of it. The famous faces in the game resemble their counterparts however the ability to use the on any track in unrealistic. Could you imagin Hayley Williams ...  Read the complete review

Guitar Hero World Tour is the first iteration of the fracnchise that includes full band functionality, it may seem like it is catching up with Rock Band but the overall package is quite impressive. Having played both Rock Band and Guitar Hero instruments, I can say that the Guitar Hero instruments are definitely better than the Rock Band ones overall, but not in every way. The Guitar Hero drum pad is very sturdy and the rubber drum pads feel very good to play as they give a good bounce. However the same cannot be said for the cymbals and the pedal, the cymbals are very flimsy and you have to hit them near the middle to get a good hit detection, the pedal ...  Read the complete review

Guitar Hero World Tour XBOX 360 I brought the bundle of this game when it was 1st released. The bundle contains one wireless guitar controller, drum kit, microphone and the World Tour Game. I had never played any of these games before, so for the 1st 5 minutes of playing just sat there looking at the screen in panic! You can play the game alone or with friends, in my opinion its much better with others. You can choose your own set list from the songs which are already unlocked, play a career (this is how you unlock more songs) or play head to head against a friend. The controllers are all well made and from my experience do ...  Read the complete review

Despite getting a slamming from Jack White and Jimmy Page earlier today, I am sticking firm with my high opinion of Guitar Hero. Guitar Hero is a video game where the objective is to play through well known rock songs. This is achieved using a guitar hero guitar (or other guitar hero controller such as drums) where you have to press down the coloured buttons that come up on screen and strum a strum bar. The game looks a bit pointless if you are watching it, let alone if you are just reading this online and it really is something that you have to do yourself to appreciate. There are a wide variety of difficulty levels, and at the highest difficulty level a ...  Read the complete review
