Are you ready to rock? Well, get ready to shred on the tiny Guitar Grip with Guitar Hero: On Tour for the Nintendo DS! This awesome music video game series brings the popular Guitar Hero experience to the handheld console, allowing you to play through lead or bass guitar portions of rock songs right on your DS.
Developed by Vicarious Visions and distributed by RedOctane and Activision, Guitar Hero: On Tour has become a hit among DS players. The series currently has three games: Guitar Hero: On Tour, Guitar Hero On Tour: Decades, and Guitar Hero On Tour: Modern Hits. Each game offers a new setlist of rockin' tunes to keep you entertained for hours.
Like its console counterparts, Guitar Hero: On Tour challenges you to match colored notes as they scroll on screen towards you, all while rocking out to the beat. But what sets this game apart is the use of the Guitar Grip, a unique accessory developed by Vicarious Visions. The Guitar Grip slips into the Game Boy Advance port on the DS or DS Lite, providing you with a guitar-like experience.
Now, let's talk about the Guitar Grip. This handy device features a strap to hold your DS securely while you rock out, and four fret buttons to simulate playing guitar. But that's not all! To truly immerse yourself in the experience, you use the stylus to strum on the touch-sensitive screen of the DS. It's like playing a real guitar, but on a handheld console!
Each game in the series features over 25 songs, with some variation in track lists depending on where you're playing. So whether you're in the US, Europe, or Japan, you'll have a unique setlist to rock out to. From classic rock anthems to modern hits, there's something for everyone to enjoy.
But wait, there's more! Guitar Hero: On Tour also offers multiple single-player modes to keep you entertained. You can embark on a career mode, where you rise from a small-time rocker to a superstar. Or challenge yourself with the quick play mode, where you can jump right into any song and show off your skills. No matter which mode you choose, you're in for a rocking good time!
But why keep the fun to yourself? Guitar Hero: On Tour also features multiplayer mode, allowing you to connect with friends and rock out together. By using the local wi-fi capabilities of the DS, you can challenge your friends to a guitar battle and see who can achieve the highest score. It's the perfect opportunity to show off your shredding skills and claim the title of the ultimate rockstar!
And here's the best part: the multiplayer mode also allows you to use songs from different installments of the series. So if you have Guitar Hero On Tour: Decades and your friend has Guitar Hero On Tour: Modern Hits, you can compete against each other using songs from both games. It adds a whole new level of excitement and friendly competition to the game.
In conclusion, Guitar Hero: On Tour brings the rockin' experience of the Guitar Hero series to the Nintendo DS. With the innovative Guitar Grip accessory, you can shred like a pro right on your handheld console. Whether you're playing alone or with friends, this game is guaranteed to provide hours of fun and bring out the inner rockstar in you. So grab your DS, slip on the Guitar Grip, and get ready to rock out!
