User Rating: 9 | Guitar Hero: On Tour Decades DS
By ashcatash | Review Date:
First of all, I will admit I haven't played the original Guitar Hero: On Tour for DS so I can't tell you if this sequel is any better or not. What I can tell you is that Decades is a lot of fun with some great songs!

The controller that attaches to your DS is awkward, I admit. But the secret to not getting a hand cramp is to not wear the strap attached and to lay your hand on a table so it doesn't get tired. With this method, I can play for nearly 1 1/2 hours before I need a break.

The graphics are great, pretty much what you'd expect from the franchise. The songs are really good, especially Weezer's "Buddy Holly." That song alone is almost worth the money. I rated the game as Very Hard because getting a perfect score in all the songs is amazingly hard (I haven't finished it myself), but newbies shouldn't worry - the Easy level is fun for everyone.

In short, I would recommend this game to all Guitar Hero lovers, even though it's not as great as the games for XBox 360, this DS version has a lot to offer rock fans.

    For me, the first Guitar Hero On Tour was good. It had everything that I expected for a Guitar Hero game on the DS. But only a few months later, Activision pulls together a sequal, Guitar Hero On Tour: Decades. Decade... Read Full Review
