5 out of 5 stars Guitar Hero: On Tour   July 20, 2008
 6 out of 6 found this review helpful

I bought this game when it came out (18th July) and i must say i absolutly love it! I have never had a guitar hero game before and i love the way its so different and it works so well! I found myself addicted to it in a couple of hours and getting into music that would never have listened to before! I also love the fact that you use a plectrum type stylus to play!

Unlike another reviewer i found the add-on (with the buttons) easy to use and iam 21 so i would say i have big fingers!

To conclude i think that any guitar hero or NDS fans should buy without hesitation. I cant wait to play this on holiday and look like a complete idiot! hahah!



5 out of 5 stars Just the one minor setback...   July 29, 2008

It took time getting used to but now not only can I play guitar hero at home, I can also play it on the move! Of course, it is less realistic than the normal guitar hero games, but it is just as fun! The price is reasonable for it, and it comes with an adapter for the old versions of the nintendo ds.
The only problem I have found is finding a comfortable position to sit in whilst I play this as your wrist can ache a bit, but usually taking a break helps. Or perhaps using a Powerball Neon Pro ?
Overall I give it five stars because the quality is excellent, I can wear headphones (so I don't have to annoy the rest of the family!), and it is still quite a challenging game.



5 out of 5 stars ***** 5 stars addicted to it =D x   August 10, 2008

5 out of 5 stars Pricy but loads of fun.   August 12, 2008

I bought this game having never played any other GH game and found it brilliant.

I understand why some reviewers found it uncomfortable to play, and that the grip can sometimes slide out of the slot. I found that pressing my left thumb against the right shoulder button (not used in game)prevents the grip from slipping as I'm holding the ds and the grip at the same time. I also found that when I have my thump in this position, it's comfortable to play and I can hit the able button easier.

If you take a little time to play around with holding the grip and finding what is comfortable for you, then you shouldn't have any problems with the game.

All in all it's a very addictive and fun game.



5 out of 5 stars This. Game. Rocks.   August 26, 2008
What else can I say? Got Guitar Hero On Tour for my birthday and am having trouble putting it down! Yes, the controller isn't perfect, but apart from that I can't say a bad word about the game. I'm a girl who knows her way around a fret board and I am impressed with the quality of the tunes, graphics and gameplay. I've not played the game on other consoles, so I can't compare, but standing alone the DS version is fantastic and I would recommend it to just about anyone.
