Guitar Hero: On Tour

""I Don't Wanna Stop" Playing! >_>"

Welcome to the wonderful world of Guitar Hero. Years have passed, and the series has improved. Vastly. And now, Guitar Hero: On Tour is produced. Quite an unexpected game if you ask me. Opinions will greatly change once you actually get to play this game. But what are the characteristics that make this game one of a kind?

Story Line
-------------
Ah, here we begin with career mode. Like other guitar hero games, the story is miniscule, and not the highlight of the game. The career mode in this game is much smaller than any other guitar hero career mode. But hey, this is the DS version, so can we expect much? With 5 different live performance areas though, it should keep your attention.

Score: 6

Song List
-----------
For a DS game, this is pretty good if I might say. From songs ranging from "This love", to "I don't wanna stop", this game should keep you amused. With over 25 songs to play, each with a different challenge, you should have more than enough time to enjoy this game. Yes, some songs may seem repetitive because of the constant power chords, but as you progress, the songs become more fun. So don't fret.

Score: 9

Gameplay
------------
Ah yes, now we are at gameplay, something that separates this from any other game. Instead of 5 buttons like in the console versions, GH:WT only consists of four, but even so, this game is quite hard, even for long time Guitar Hero Players. On the touch screen side, there consists of strings, a wammy, and a power up button for when you are dueling. What's unique about this version, is that in order to activate star power, you yell into the microphone. Or if you don't want to think you're acting like a fool, you can always press the select button. This is the highlight though of the game. VERY INNOVATIVE

Score: 10

Replay Value
--------------
Of course, since this is a music game, of course you will play more. And with very challenging songs, you will want to FC these songs do achieve your long goal. 100% "I Don't wanna stop" anyone? And again, with over 25 songs, you should be kept busy

Score: 10/10


Overall
----------

This game is a must buy. Whether you are new to the series or old, this has something special for everyone. Play with your friends head to head to see who is the better rock star. And hey, with those fingers becoming stronger as you play, I bet you will make a woman happy ;)
