Guitar Hero World Tour Hands On/Review

Well folks, what can I say about the new Guitar Hero that will hit the streets tonight at 12 am. Its flipping awesome! Plain and simple. The graphics put all other GH and RB games to shame, its just really well done and well polished. The Tool exclusive background for their songs, is well... incredible.

Though the Eye is highly distracting if you just jump into a Tool song for the first time, also be prepared that when in World Tour mode, you need to save your money, because your money actually is used to progress into new gigs, such as the 3 Tool set list in World Tour. You will need 8k in cash to unlock Tool, so if you are 5 staring most your songs, you may need to do 1 extra set list after unlocking the Tool set list to buy the Tool set list for 8k in cash. Guitar Hero is going to be the Music game to Beat this holiday season, and despite the fact i love Rock Band 2, Guitar Hero World Tour is going to be taking over for a bit and putting RB2 to the side line. Plus World Tour is going to be launching more downloadable music, similar to Rock Band, and in fact...there is already music ready to download for World Tour.

Another feature I really like about Guitar Hero World Tour is the Bass. At times your are going to see a purple line come across your fret board and that means to play an open note. Don't hold any of your fret buttons at all, just play and open strum, it in fact makes Bass a lot more fun and interesting to play than in past Guitar Heros and Rock Bands.
