Guitar Hero, Guitar Hero, Guitar Hero. Haven't we heard enough about this? NOPE! The franchise is taking a big swing at rival Rock Band by releasing their own "full band" version of the game: Guitar Hero World Tour. Formerly, Guitar Hero was just about rocking an axe, but then Rock Band came along with their fancy microphone and drum kit, offering a game more geared towards groups of people and parties. The big story - besides that fact that the Guitar Hero drumset has cymbals - is the instruments (the guitar specifically). Fans of the game await the release of instrument designs like nerds await the new version of Firefox. Here is a non-exclusive look at the new set of instruments that will be hitting living rooms shortly. From the IGN review of the game:
It's not just about playing classic songs either. World Tour lets you become the rock star in every way possible -- from playing the tunes to making the music itself. I got my first look at the next game in the hit franchise and there's no doubt about it: I'm impressed. Neversoft and Activision didn't sit on their laurels and pump out a cash-in sequel. There's so much new here that it's tough to decide where to begin.
