A great party game to play with your friends after a night at the pub.
User Rating: 8.5 | Guitar Hero World Tour X360
Guitar Hero is a great series of games. Guitar Hero World Tour carries on this name. The setlist for Guitar Hero World Tour is a great one, with a few odd songs in it, but they all make the game fun and enjoyable. The new instruments are really well done; the new guitar is really good in my opinion. The touch slider is a bit weird but can be fun if you have enough of a warning for when to use it. The new strum bar is much better than the old one I found, and the addition of a new star power button makes it easier if you are having some difficulty activating the star power. The new drums are brilliant, allowing you to really think that you are going all out. The pads are quite sensitive and a lot of my friend's ones have been broken, but a lot of them work just fine and you can have a lot of fun drumming away to some of the classic songs and some new ones. All in all, playing these instruments together with a bunch of mates yields nothing but good times, with everyone going mad to a favourite song, our personal being Re-education Through Labour by Rise Against. The gameplay is great, playing through the career pits you against some of the most iconic people in music history, such as Billy Corgan, Zakk Wylde, Ted Nugent, Travis Barker, and many more.
The new character creation tools are amazingly intricate, allowing you to create your own personal image in rocker form, even going so far as to completely customise the instruments they play, and even the strange funky moves you do when entering, finishing or failing a song.
All in all the game is a great one, which can give either a group of friends or on your own, several hours of great fun.
