Honest opinion on GH: On Tour
AnTi PRO | 2:30 PM on 07.05.2008 4 comments


Yes I realize the game came out last week, but if you read my last entry I'm working at a camp over the summer and barley have enough time to do anything let alone write about stuff. Anyways I got my hands on GH: On Tour last weekend and I do have to say my initial thoughts were a bit skeptical.

The first thing you need to know about me is that I am no hardcore Guitar Hero player. The first GH game I owned was 3 and I can only play medium and a little hard. So the fact that On Tour only has 4 buttons makes me a little happy. On a gaming standpoint I do have to say On Tour delivers the Guitar Hero experience just as it's older brothers. The buttons are a bit smashed together and sometimes my big hands can't find the right color, but for the most part it works. I am a bit iffy on the fact that I'm constantly strumming on my touch screen. I do have a protector on it, but I'm on the picky side when it comes to something that wears out the screen that much.

The song selection is fairly good. It's nice to see some old favorites as well as some new kids on the block. A friend of mine picked it up as well and we did some challenges and the multiplayer works like a charm. My only complaint in that department is the battle powers. It takes way too long to blow that retarded fire out...and why the hell would someone make you sign a shirt on stage? It makes no sense...

Final judgment? If you're a big Guitar Hero fan then pick it up. If you're not then play it and make your decision. I'm not a big GH fan, but I enjoy On tour.

I'm not too excited about it. I would much rather play a GH game with 5 buttons and amazingly hard songs...anything else feels boring to me.

I'm not bothering with it. The song selection quite honestly is bullshit. Smash Math and Maroon 5? Come on now.

Seriously though, I'm not very tempted. Single player GH just isn't... any fun.
