New Guitar Hero On Tour: Decades Screens
Posted by Adam Barenblat at 1:00 PM on October 7, 2008
First off when I heard about Guitar Hero: On Tour, I was to say the least, skeptical. Then at E3 I got to try Fahey's copy of it and I must say, honestly, it really wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I looked ridicules while playing it, but it was actually fun. Speaking of which we got some new screens for Activision's next iteration of the game.

I wonder what the DSi version of Guitar Hero will look like. You know there's gonna be one, it's on everything. Pacemakers have Guitar Hero! >_<

@Sooku: Probably not that much seeing that everyone and their mother owns a DS.

@Sooku:
I can see them making a new attachment for the DSi, they love charging money for new stuff.

@Sooku: Just wait for Nintendo's official "Insert into DS slot for this optional GBA port for GBA port required games" adapter and everything will be cool again!

@Sooku:
Considering this wont be released in NA or Europe until next year, I'm guessing Activision wont be too upset (at-least for now).

I wonder how pissed off Activision is about the lack of a GBA slot on the DSI.

I disliked the GH: On Tour so much cause my hand got cramped and tense trying to play it. it just wasnt confortable in my hand. :/ its a shame too cause i LOVE Guitar Hero and wished i couldve liked it

Am I the only person who simply can't play this game?
My fingers aren't that big, but the DS never sits right with my hand in the strap. The only way I can play it is by balancing the DS on my knee, and it usually ends up on the floor mid solo.

@Gofthick: I am truly a "good" Guitar Hero player, but I cannot play this game at all. My problem is not the fingers on the fret buttons, I'm doing fine at that... it's the strumming... Whenever I player the DS game, it wouldn't register most of my strumming, since you need to use the stylus on a particular (small IMO) part of the screen to strum. This is where the game fails. Give me a guitar controller any day.

@Assassin_Kensei: Why not? I'll tell you.
Look at Tap Tap Revenge. Look at it. Now look at Guitar Hero Mobile. Yes, the crappy mobile game.
Similar, you bet.
TTR is going to dominate the mobile music game market and GH:WT for iPhone won't change that.....
Because TTR is FREE.
