Guitar Hero: On Tour with Grips (NDS) (Nintendo DS)

Product Information

You then turn the DS sideways like a book and use a provided plastic pick to strum the touch-screen guitar and rock your socks off. The game uses a "Guitar Grip", either as bundled with the game or from On Tour, that is inserted into the Game Boy Advance slot of a Nintendo DS or DS Lite; the peripheral is incompatible with the Nintendo DSi. I was looking around to purchase one online, and was unsure if they all work with both DS and DS Lite. Players can compete using different versions of the games, allowing the songs of each game to be shared during play.

Before heading into venues, you have to choose the three different storylines in your career path: lead guitar, bass/rhythm, and guitar duels.

However, unlocking new guitars, songs, and costumes is pretty nice, despite the presence of the All-American Rejects.

Executive Producer David Nathanielsz stated that the short time between releases was to help give DS players the same depth of content as available to the console players of Guitar Hero.The characters might not lipsync, strum or beat the drum in time to the music, but it's still cool to see them in full 3D and wearing your custom items earned, purchased, and selected. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond our control and may cause actual results to differ materially from our current expectations. Or, you can enter the fun and frantic Guitar Duel option to compete against that other player…complete with over-the-top power-ups that are made to screw up the competitor. The game recognizes strums in any direction as well as back-forth strums without lifting up the pick, a technique that comes in extremely handy when you get into the Expert tracked songs. In general, critics felt the game captured the majority of the elements of the Guitar Hero series, [28] and IGN commented that the note tracks were well done as to provide "a great challenge with a solid difficulty curve".
