Should have been classic guitar hero game.

User Rating: 8 | Guitar Hero World Tour X360
Been playing Guitar Hero World tour now for the past 4 nights, and it a pretty good game. I'm still waiting for that WOW factor that happens in most games. Maybe it comes in the form of DLC, but I have yet to really say that is why I bought the game. I can't help comparing it to Rock Band since I have spent well over 200 hours in that game just fooling around with it. I'm not a person who will use the song creator. There have been a few songs that I would grab from others, but it still doesn't seem like something that really adds a WOW factor either.

Now don't get me wrong this is a great game in it's right, but it's mainly a Guitar Hero game, with the other instruments tacked on. I have noticed all of the extra content they have added to the songs with "Extra length" added to the end of the song. I don't remember there ever being the extra notes in Mr Crowley, or Crazy Train. I'm still wondering why they would need to add "more" to a song. I bought this game for really only a few songs. Tool, Korn, Jimi Hendrix, just to name a few. However I notice that there are so many songs that I play or look at and go: "Really. This is a song that people wanted? Wow I never would have even thought it needed to be represented."

I have to say the best thing I have found about this game is the customization with the characters, and the instruments. The first character made was a female corpse representation with Goth as the persona. Second was the Black Metal spiked character. And the guitar, and the drums, and microphone you can customize, it is just awesome.

However I have to say more thing about this game before I finish, and I think it must be said. They have never claimed that it has been about teaching drums, or even getting started with how, but the drum parts, until Expert is really, really boring. Now I'm not against "On the road again. but I never actually thought that I could fall asleep, and make a sandwhich while playing that song. Granted it's not the best example of a song for drums, but really, something could have livened it up just a bit. Thsi not being the only song that you can play with your eyes closed after the first 10 hits to the drums.

I'm still glad for the purchase, and guitar being the most favorable part to this game gets the most love like the title says. I really hope I can say the same for GH:Metallica when it comes in 2 weeks.
