“Guitar Hero: World Tour” rocks

Review

Activison Blizzard released a new sequel to one of the best rhythm games ever created. “Guitar Hero: World Tour” was released on October 26. It is available on the Xbox 360, PS3, Wii, and PS2. This game makes an astonishing sixth sequel to the first game, “Guitar Hero”.

This new addition to the Guitar hero series features a full band play system, much like “Rock Band”.
The game includes new instruments, like a drum set, which consists of 2 cymbals and 3 drum pads, a microphone, and a new and improved guitar with touch slider buttons that players can strum, and tap solos with.

Players now have the choice to play as bass in career mode, as well as drums and vocals. “Guitar Hero: World Tour” boasts 84 songs, including tracks like Linkin Park’s “What I’ve Done”, Tokio Hotel’s “Monsoon”, and 30 Seconds To Mars’ “The Kill”.

“World Tour” also has downloadable content on the PS3, the Xbox 360, and the Wii. This game plays much like any other Guitar Hero game, and is great for families.
