Guitar Hero coming to the DS

article published on 21 March, 2008

Activision has announced that it will be releasing the blockbuster hit game "Guitar Hero" on the world's most popular handheld, the Nintendo DS. The new game, "Guitar Hero: On Tour" will include a plug-in accessory (pictured later) and a mock guitar-pick that will allow gamers to strum on the bottom screen.

This thing looks ridiculous! Certain games just aren't meant to be ported or made for hand helds. How exactly are you supposed to hit the buttons, strum the bottom screen and watch what the **** your doing on the top screen?!!

I actually saw an ad for this earlier today. I'm nothing special at the game but I do enjoy it. I think I would buy it.

All I can say is "wow..." Personally, I don't like Guitar Hero. To me, it just seems like a guitar player wannabe game for those that would rather feel like they're playing just by hitting 5 buttons and strumming a wheel instead of actually trying to learn to play for real. Also, I'm surprised I haven't seen anything about that Gibson/Activision Guitar Hero patent lawsuit on here.

"wierdname". that lawsuit looks really bad. By bad i mean has no purpose. How can you sue someone because they use a different kind of technology to entertain people that is similar to another kinda, eg videogames and music. Whats your thoughts on this?

You use the stylus pen to trigger the whammy on the touch screen, I'm guessing. Once again as I said before, it will flop.

I was more or less meaning the fact that the lawsuit is even in existence. Personally, they patent could be applied to quite a bit more. It's pretty sad so see them (Gibson) trying to sue a bunch of people like that. They make good guitars but I don't see why they can't just let video gamers play their little Guitar Hero game.

The Guitar hero ds game, that layout looks stupid for one thing... but who knows it might play well.. although I don't really have big hopes for it going anywhere... nor do I intend to waste my hard earn cash on it. You better have good headphones cause the ds speakers amongst every other portable hardwares have shitty speakers.

ok there are good ideas and there are bad ideas, these companys need to learn how to tell the difference and stop spewing out games on impulse. exactly who is this targeted toward? im guessing 9 and 10 year olds that want to be like there older brother. wow why would you want to even try and use the stylist for this?

If Nintendo had a shoulder I'd sock it for coming up with this game. The chances are even greater of seeing a kid looking like a lunatic on the street.

If you have Frankenstein hands this prolly isn't the game for you.

I dont understand how a company can think of something like this as a great idea. Do they even read these forums or are they all taking feedback from a bunch of caged ferrets?
