 Guitar Hero Becomes Band Hero! November 15, 2008
92 out of 92 found this review helpful
This arrived yesterday on launch day and the only downside was being woken up by the kids playing drums at 7am! If you liked GH then you will love this.
Worthy of note is that you need a Wii controller per instrument - so if you have lead guitar, base guitar, drums and microphone, you need FOUR Wii controllers (even though the mike plugs in to USB at the back of the Wii).
I LOVE THIS GAME!!!!! November 15, 2008

This is a great game i have had so much fun banging away on the drums, for so many hrs. Every instrument is great the only con is the kick pedal for the drums feels cheap and like it could break at any time. Other than that the whole set up is great tons of songs hrs of fun V HAPPY ;-)
Watch Out Pete Townsend, Here I Come.......... November 16, 2008
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I pre ordered and received the Guitar Hero World Tour bundle and free guitar on 14 Nov 08, ready to unleash some serious anger on the drum kit. Although, as previously mentioned in almost all the other reviews, each instrument requires a seperate controller. A minor point which took my wallet pleasantly by surprise! The drum kit and guitars take moments to set up,and once my kids had practised their Pete Townsend impressions we were ready to start. The game is fantastic, very addictive, easy to learn and play. I do have two little points i beleive are worth mentioning. Unless you have surround sound, it is quite difficut to hear the drums over the thud of the drum stick on the rubber pads. I beleive you can alter the volume of each instrument though. Finally, the game has 85 songs to have a go at, from the Sex Pistols to the eagles, but only a handfull that i knew, If you like heavy metal, you will love it. You can buy more songs online though. Overall, a cracking gift to myself, if i could get a go on it. 10/10. Enjoy.

Where to start??
Guitar Hero 3 Legends of Rock, was a great game - a really great game! So for Neversoft the game was on to create a sequel that would do justice to the series - and boy have they delivered! With over 80 songs, from all genres (country - metal!) there is something for everyone. Its really easy to pick up and play, especially with the new beginner stage!
Alongside the songs on the disc it is possible to create your own, or download more from GHtunes. You can also purchase more songs using wii points from the online store. As others have said, you do need wii remotes for all of the instruments, which is a pain, but it doesn't really take anything from the game itself.
Aside from the age old Rock Band Vs Guitar Hero debate, which is better, who was first and the rest......who cares! Personally, I went for Guitar Hero World Tour as I loved GH3, and the controller for that would be compatible with this game and I prefer the drums - its more realistic with the raised cymbals, you really do feel like a drummer. Furthermore GHWT has downloadable songs, where as rock band doesn't. Each game will have its fans, and thats good, as competition will hopefully push the companies to produce even better games and features in the future!
Overall, this game is so much fun - it really is!! You can play as a band, or each instrument individually. Difficulty can be changed half way through a song and you can even create your own wee rocker to look just like you!
I expect hospitals should be on call this christmas to aid my fellow rockers with their potential injuries! I have already poked myself in the eye with the drums sticks, banged my knee off a table doing a crazy guitar solo and my vocal chords are shredded - but I dont care, I am a rockstar! Seriously, this game is fun, for all ages!
rock out! November 21, 2008

Mine arrived promptly, thanks Amazon!
The drums: feel great, easily adjustable in height, although the kick peddle takes some getting used to. The wii remote slots in the top, and the whole kit runs off it, there is no separate power source, so make sure your stocked up on AA battery's for your wii remotes. The drumsticks are wooden, and the build quality of all is excellent.
The guitar: heavier than the les Paul controller and slightly larger in size so wont fit in my guitar controller carry bag : -(. Build quality feels better than the les Paul controller though. Guitar runs off wii remote like drums and previous guitars. The whammy bar is much better, there's a star power button that you can much more easily hit with your palm while strumming, and the new touch sensitive strip allows some insane note combo's to be hit, as well as the tap function for strumming which I never use.
You can use the les Paul guitar controller to play the game just as well as with the new guitar.
You need a wii remote for each instrument.
There are 80 odd songs to play, none of which contain explicit lyrics.
There are not very many songs for download online, although the new James bond one is on there (jack white and Alicia keys)
For GH gods: the hammer-on window is not like GH3, its small, requires accuracy.
all instruments are really responsive except the mic which has a little bit of sound lag, not major,
this game plays best on tube teles where there is no lag, although lag can be adjusted in game for all tv's.
I preference the guitar hero games, and would recommend them over any other games in the genre.
Lastly Amazon's price is about as good as it gets, doubt you'll find it cheaper elsewhere, not with great delivery anyway.
all the best
