About this product

Product Information

The first name in music instrument gaming returns with a Rock Band-esque focus on full band simulation, the ability for players to create their own music, and more than 80 new tracks in Guitar Hero: World Tour. For the first time in the series, wannabe rock stars can simulate singing and drumming in addition to the familiar strumming of guitar-shaped controllers, and with the addition of a bass guitar, up to four players can form a band and jam together. As with all titles in the Guitar Hero series, gamers must "play" their instruments by rhythmically matching onscreen prompts in order to earn high scores and unlock new songs. The singing mechanic resembles Karaoke Revolution and SingStar in that it requires vocalists to match the pitch and notes of each song, whereas drummers must be timely when depressing the kick drum and striking the proper combination of drum and cymbal pads.

A revamped single-player Career mode lets gamers advance their musician through a series of gigs by playing a specific number of songs, with the option to change difficulty level or instrument at any time. The Band Career mode works in a similar fashion, offering up to four players the opportunity to advance through a full career. Boss Battles also return in a form more akin to previous Face-Off modes, and they no longer feature the attack power-ups used in Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock and Guitar Hero: Aerosmith. Gamers can use the new "Create-a-Rocker" feature to customize the posture, age, hair, makeup, and tattoos of their unique characters, and real-life rock legends such as Ozzy Osbourne, Jim Hendrix, and Ted Nugent are also playable.

The song list spans several decades and is made up of a diverse selection of master recordings by artists such as: 311, the Allman Brothers Band, the Beastie Boys, Billy Idol, Blondie, Coldplay, the Cult, the Doors, the Eagles, the Foo Fighters, Jane's Addiction, Jimi Hendrix, Korn, Linkin Park, Los Lobos, Metallica, Michael Jackson, Modest Mouse, Motorhead, Nirvana, No Doubt, NOFX, Oasis, Ozzy Osbourne, Pat Benetar, R.E.M, the Sex Pistols, Steely Dan, Sting, the Stone Roses, Sublime, Tool, Van Halen, and Willie Nelson. In addition, players can create their own songs in the Advanced Studio mode by playing tracks for each instrument in either real or slowed time. Songs can be either 1,200 notes long or three minutes in length, but vocal recording is unavailable due to storage issues.

Great gameplay and song selection
Over all this game has great songs and good gameplay just like most other Guitar Hero games. I think the graphics are pretty bad but it is a PS2 game and this was before the better developers purchased the series rights. For a rhythym game the only important things are the song list and the actual gameplay so I would give it a 5/5 using those metrics.

Disc problem
I'm able to play a big majority of the songs, but not all of them. The game starts to glitch after a while and then I'll have to restart the system and try to go back to where I left off and it messes up again in the same section. None of the other Guitar Hero games that I've purchased on this website have done this.

GUITAR HERO WORLD TOUR
I like the ability to sound like a rock star musician. You're able to progress from easy to difficult at your own pace. I love the fact that you can play this with your kids. This is really quality time with my daughter. I dislike that not too many songs are on CD's, but that may just be me. I'm not sure how to download extra songs. I decided to buy it because it was one of those things that wanted, but was out of my budget. But, I found a great deal and couldn't pass it up on ebay. It's just an awesome game that is easy to learn and have tons of fun with.

Guitar Hero World Tour game
I am a fan of Guitar hero. Being that i am in a family that has musical talent, i figure that Guitar Hero would an ideal game that the entire family can play together. Everyone sings and play different instruments, except the drums. Listening and playing Guitar Hero World Tour gives the adults a sense of nostalgia, while the young ones get an opportunity to listen to what we used to listen to. The entire family plays for many hours from Quickplay to Career mode. The kids really kick out of creating their own rocker. The only disappointment about the game is that it takes to long to load the songs.

Excellent Game
The game is awesome my family is having so much fun with the game that now it became part of “our family spending time together routine”. I’ve invited all my friend and they got so hooked up on the game that now they’re thinking of buying their own and that is good that is the only way that I can get rid of them if they get their own system. Don’t give me wrong I like them a lot but sometimes they are little bit to annoying. In addition, the game has a lot of potential to become one of the greatest games to play with the family years from now it has a potential to beat up “Monopoly”.
