This is a really fun games. A lot better than the guitar hero games. You can customize, record, and even share your own music. This makes it so fun. Also now you get a microphone, and a drum set, which makes it a lot more fun. Also on live, you can compete against other games which makes it really fun

Extremely awesome! Tons of fun, but graphics arent as good as previous guitar Heros for 360 like GH3. Still, good gameplay, customizable stuff, and graphics are still great! Difficulty is good, and songs are great!!

I am a fan of Guitar hero and Rock band and this game is tons of fun to play with people and still fun to play alone. The career mode is pretty long and fun, but some of the songs are not to fun to play, but their are some fun songs too. Also, one thing that World Tour has over Rock band is the band equiptment. The drums are very good along with the guitar. I like playing rock band with these instruments way better than the rock band ones. World tours music studio is pretty cool too and the online is great. Finally, this is tons of replayability with all of the stuff you can unlock which makes it worth the money.

The best guitar hero yet

I think this game is going to be one of the best games ever put out. The feature that enables you to make a song is going to be the biggest break through in gaming on a console.This will require a lot of talent and song writing ability. I belive that this is the best new feature on this game another plus is that it supports the rock band insturments. I would like the drum kit that comes with it but I will get the ion drum kit. It has an impressive set list and the slap bass on the new guitar. will it be better than rock band well time will tell.

OKay, i started out with GH and then went to rock band. I liked the way the notes appeared on GH better. I am a little more conservative with my music, so i loved the playlist on GH. I think that the Graphics are better than Rock Band. Watching the notes is easier on the eyes, when learning to play. The guitar on Rock Bank is way better, than the standard for GH. However, the Les Olson guitar is very nice. My advise is buy rock band kit and then the GH games.

Disappointment in Gutiar Hero World Tour
Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
So right now i have guitar hero 1,2,3, Rock the 80s, Aerosmith, and World Tour as well as both rock band 1 and 2. Out of all of these games i would have to say that World Tour is the most disappointing. The only good side i can see to the game is that there are new songs (and like any other guitar game there are songs i like as well as songs i don't like as much) and you get to play with some new characters (such as ozzy osbourne and jimmy hendrix). Other than that i found that the graphics were not that great, i was not impressed with the new character customization, i personally had no interest in the create a song feature and worst of all it didn't sound good! the guitar track is too loud compared to the rest of the parts of the songs (drums, bass, vocal tracks)
i have not tried the drums for this game but the first guitar that i bought i had to return because the new slider feature on the guitar was broken.
Unfortunately I would have to say that the quality of guitar hero has taken a step back (i thought guitar hero 3 was much better) and right now rock band seems to be a better buy

I didnt think id get this game the frst day but a pulled few strings and got it. It is so amazing i played it for 4 hours. Creating a song can be difficult but fun once you get used to it. Now that its like rock band your whole family and friends can all enjoy the game. They have a new guitar with a tapable neck. I dont have it but i want it. The drums are much better than the rock band drums and the whole game is better. One of my favorite things in world tour is the retun of Clive Winston!!! Brought back from guitar hero 2 Clive is set to be like a Jimmy Page. You can even create your own character which is cool. Great songs like What Ive Done by Linkin Park, Rebel Yell by Billy Idol, The Kill by 30 sec to Mars, Band on the Run by Wings and many more awesome classic & new tracks. Highly Recomend this Game

GH 5 is much better

I got GH 5 before I got World Tour, so it was a noticeable step backwards in the interface with the game - but the most important thing is actual gameplay, which is excellent.

Good game but drums are junk!

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
Overall this is a good game except for the drums. The pads, cymbals, foot pedal, well pretty much the whole drum set was junk.Also the songs are like soft rock songs from the 70's and new songs from bands no ones ever heard of. Making songs is very confusing and isn't worth doing.Now some good things are playing with 3 other people is really fun, it has good graphics, and the songs on there that are from well known bands are great songs. If your a fan of guitar hero games you'll love it.

Greatest Guitar Hero

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
Guitar Hero World Tour is the best out of any Guitar Hero and Rock Band. The graphics of the game are really good. I'm loving jimmy Hendrix being in the game. Ted Nugent riding the buffalo onto the stage is a great imitation of him in the '50s. It's fun to go the practice mode and pick Hots for Teacher on the drums and guitar on Expert because they're insane. The only thing i would change is put some ACDC, Pink Floyd, Queen, and take out all the scremo music cause it sounds awful.

This game is hands down the most fun I've had playing a video game in a long, long time. I have been waiting for a Guitar Hero game to come out that had all the songs preformed by the actual artists. That is indeed what you get with GHWT. The sound is great, as well is the rewarding feeling you get for hitting a sweet chord. Weather your playing career by yourself on easy, or expert, or your playing with some friends, It's always a good time. This game is a must have!

this game will be amazing. i still think they should of left the drums with rock band but unlike rock band i dont think the drums or guitar will break. it will be interesting how it will rank with rock band but after seeing the trailer and playing all the guitar heros. It WILL be a challenge against rock band.

I began playin it and it seemed really easy. at first i thought i was on the wrong leve like on medium or hard but i was on expert. This good becuase it has a lot of different variety of songs which is a nice change from all the other guitar heroes

Good game, bad controller

This game is a great addition to any gamers collection, whether they're a Guitar Hero or Rock Band fan or even someone who has never played. The game has the same old great gameplay and lots of downloadable content. My only gripe about this game is that the wireless guitar controller that comes with it is absolutely horrible. I've had the same problem with 2 different controllers and every controller that I've tried in any store. The controller will strum by itself at random, sometimes when you're not touching any buttons at all. I think it may have something to do with the joystick, as this can be used to strum, too. Fortunately, I had an old controller to use, and aside from that the game was really enjoyable.

I think they really missed out music wise with this one. My biggest disappointment was the Ted Nugent challenge. Pretty darn boring. It's still a fun game. The variety of aftermarket songs is very weak. This is where they really dropped the ball.

I miss Rock Band.

Guitar Hero World Tour is ok if you have never played Rock Band before. Rock Band (in my opinion) is the superior product mainly because of the songlist. The graphics were also horrible. Nevertheless, waking your parents up at 2 in the morning because you are rockin out to World Tour is always fun, I would just suggest you do it on Rock Band instead.
