3 out of 5 stars Not quite there   July 21, 2008

Kinda painful on the wrist and fingers, very limited soundtrack. I think they should have put a little more thought into it.


3 out of 5 stars so so   July 21, 2008

So I surprised that It has good technology,good sound and good idea. But I think that when I play,I'll choose Wii's one.


4 out of 5 stars AWESOMENESS!!!!!!!   July 16, 2008
I Love this game! Granted, I don't own a PS2, PS3, Wii, or anything else that plays the other versions, I've only played at a friend's house. The controls are a bit awkward by comparison but I was comfy with them in a matter of minutes. I've only had the guitar grip come out twice, so no complaints there for me either. I have an older DS and was worried about it fitting but it comes with a little adapter that was easy to install. I don't see myself ever being able to pass expert, I'm having a really tough time finishing hard! It does seem to be one of those games one can get tired of pretty easily, but them again I did play every chance I got for two weeks... I think it's a great game, but it does seem like it'll be ignored for months at a time... I wish they'd come out with some sort of expansion pack or something... or maybe just a new game cartridge with new songs but just the game card so we won't have to spend $50.00 again, I'd def. be interested in something like that...


3 out of 5 stars Same game with unexcusable annoyances   July 13, 2008
This game has the same addicting gameplay that you'd expect from guitar hero but there are some major problems with it. First of all, the game is very short. Only 25 songs, it took less than 24 hours from purchasing it beat it on expert and I only failed about 10 times throughout the entire career. Not only that but there are at least 5 repeats from Guitar Hero III. Also, If you beat Guitar Hero III on expert you will find this game to be extremely easy,and that the only challenging part is because of a technical flaw and not technical skill, considering a touch screen isn't as reliable as a strum bar and the buttons are too small. Second, the buttons are really small and the positioning is extremely uncomfortable. My fingers hurt after just 2 songs the first time I played, it also hurt my wrist after a little while longer. For people who complain about pain and the possibilities of carpal tunnel from playing other Guitar Hero's, they're not even going to want to touch this one. It's bad. Oh, yeah and as a musician (though I believe even a casual listener could tell) it sounds like total crap, even with head phones on. Beyond all this it's still addictive, but it doesn't make it worth buying it full price. Heroins addictive too, what keeps you from buying that, its drawbacks. There is some innovation here though. The guitar duels are pretty fun and there is 12 or 13 different attacks if i'm not mistaken. When a string is broken you move the string from the bridge up the neck of the guitar with the stylus, your guitar can get set on fire and you blow on the mic to put it out. When your attacked with amp overload, the sound actually drops out. If you are truly an addict to this game, though unhealthy, that'd be the only way I could suggest this to you, even then, you probably won't like it as much. Either try it, buy it in a year when it's like 20 dollars used, or skip it altogether.


4 out of 5 stars Fun Game...even without a guitar!   July 13, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I was worried this game would be difficult to play without a guitar, but the developers came up with a fun way of playing it. I wish there were more songs...I made it through all of them in a day or two, and many of the songs are duplicates of ones on other platforms.

We had a screen protector for our DS that significantly interfered with game play that had to be removed. After removal, the game play was great!
