Guitar Hero World Tour

I bought the Wii Guitar Hero III(GH3) and Guitar Hero World Tour (GHWT) as Christmas presents for both of my sons. They both have the Guitar Hero III guitars so lucky no arguments there.

On playing both games, Guitar Hero World Tour is so much more easier on the easy level compared Guitar Hero III. The Coop mode is really good GH3 and difficult on Bass as well as Guitar. We did complete on easy level eventually.
The worrying thing with GHWT so far since my boys have been playing on easy level is that they haven't actually failed any gigs since they've been playing in band mode, where as GH3 is more challenging.
GHWT overall looks to be a much bigger game but there are some songs which do seem to be a bit too long.
What i do like is that you can play at different levels in band mode as my youngest son of 5 has had a go with his brothers and played at beginner level(which you only have to hit the stum button). To be able to create your own character has kept my eldest son amused for hours alone. From designing your dressware to creating your guitar exactly for you.

None of us had played Guitar heros before this but it's a massive hit in our house from 40 year old down to a 5 year old! I think what I really like about these games, no violence just music..... It is also building their aprreciation for music from 60s, 70s, 80s,etc.
The only thing now is that they want the drums and microphone and my singing is awful!

We've not used the wireless internet version yet and I understand that you can download new songs as well as compete. I am hoping that you can pick any artists and download loads of songs... More Jimi Hendrix, Rolling Stones but you know what would be brillant..
Kings of Leon - Crawl or Sex on Fire.
Hope you're listening out there, this could actually double record sales on some songs with you being able to download the latest song in Guitar Hero.

Anyway overall review buy it for the family as there's something for
everyone, well except the wife that is (unless she's a rock chic!).

Guitar Hero World Tour overall is better than Guitat Hero 3 but if you get the chance to get GH3 cheap buy it just to play:-
Barrucuda - Heart (never ever heard it before but great track)
Rolling Stones - Paint it Black (absolutely awesome and that's what my son said!!!)
Killers - When you were young.

Bought this item as a birthday present in January and it's still being used every day months later. The fun is spreading to other members of the family and friends.

excellent game had to send back and get new guitar tho as strumming bit stopped working
