The
latest installment from the #1 best-selling video game franchise of
2007, Guitar Hero World Tour will transform music gaming
by marrying Guitar Hero’s®
exhilarating guitar gameplay, with a cooperative band experience that
combines the most advanced wireless instruments with revolutionary new
online and offline gameplay modes. The game will feature a slick newly
redesigned guitar, a genuine electronic drum kit and a microphone, as
well as an innovative Music Studio music creator that lets players
compose, record, edit and share their own rock and roll anthems, along
with online Band Career and 8-player “Battle
of the Bands.”
Delivering the largest on-disc set list in a music-rhythm game to-date, Guitar
Hero World Tour is comprised entirely of master recordings from
some of the greatest classic and modern rock bands of all-time including
Van Halen, Linkin Park, The Eagles, Sublime and many more. Additionally,
the game will offer significantly more localized downloadable music than
ever before on all of the next-generation consoles. Budding rock stars
will also be given creative license to fully customize everything from
their characters’ appearance and instruments
to their band’s logo and album covers.
In addition to a newly designed more responsive guitar controller and
microphone, Guitar Hero World Tour will deliver the most
realistic drum experience ever in a video game with an authentic
electronic drum kit. Featuring three drum pads, two raised cymbals and a
bass kick pedal, the drum controller combines larger and quieter,
velocity-sensitive drum heads with soft rubber construction to deliver
authentic bounce back and is easy to set up, move, break down and store.
