It looks like competing “tap the buttons as colored gems move across the screen in time with music” games Rock Band and Guitar Hero have started the kind of annual rivalry usually reserved for sports fans. So, despite the fact that the series is still called Guitar Hero, this year’s big innovation is the addition of drummers and singers (and the accompanying $180 bundle pack). ...

We’re spilling the beans on the hardest-rocking game on the planet!

Los Angeles may be a town known for the highest excesses of rock n’ roll debauchery (with legendarily wayward rock acts such as Mötley Crüe and Guns N’ Roses synonymous with the city) but Activision’s headquarters – a dull grey box located in sleepy Santa Monica – is hardly the most thrilling place in the world to get our hands on with Guitar Hero World Tour for the first time. ...   » Read Full Guitar Hero World Tour preview

Guitar Hero World Tour revealed!
First face melting video and screens, plus a peek at the new drum kit
May 22, 2008
Hot on the heels of Konami's Rock Revolution reveal last week, we have the first (video and) screenshots for Guitar Hero: World Tour. Guitar Hero: World Tour is being developed for Activision by Neversoft, the crew most famous for the Tony Hawk games and Guitar Hero III. World Tour will be the third game on the market to feature singer, guitar, bass and drums - apparently music is the new FPS. Guitars and mics are standard fare - it's the drum kit that deserves the most scrutiny, as it is the main way to tell the three games apart. Guitar Hero: World Tour's kit has three heads, two cymbal pads, and a kick, putting it snugly between Rock Band and Rock Revolution in terms of complexity. ...   » Read Full Guitar Hero World Tour preview
