Want some Guitar Hero for your DS?

Seriously I think my Nintendo DS has to be one of my favorite inventions. Nothing is better to entertain yourself on road trips or sick days. Though I don't play it every day I certainly rely on it for those times where I can't live without it. Like wise I absolutely love Guitar Hero games but sometimes I just don't feel like breaking out controllers and planting myself in the middle of the living room floor. If I'm at home playing with my DS it usually means I need a little quiet time for myself.

Guitar Hero On Tour Modern Hits is everything I love about Guitar Hero but with the portability of my DS. Actually an expansion on the original Guitar Hero On Tour DS game it's game play is really quite similar but the soundtrack is far improved with bands such as AFI, Coldplay, The Offspring, and Weezer. I'm as happy to listen to it as I am to play it. Though there are a few new changes to characters and the career paths for the most part its really almost the same game just a new storyline. Not that that's unexpected however at all.

Included with the game is the little adapter you need to play Guitar Hero on your DS. Like my last review of the On Tour series if your used to playing Guitar Hero on the big consoles this may be a bit of a stretch for you at first. It's really quite simple to pick up it just took me a bit to reprogram my brain around the controller change. Honestly now I almost prefer playing it this way though it doesn't give you the same sort of rockstar feel as playing it on a guitar.

All in all if your a fan of the series or even a first comer its a great addition to your Guitar Hero collection and super addicting. It's also the perfect size to stuff in those stockings come the holiday season. I know quite a few teenagers who would be thrilled especially with the new soundtrack!

Guitar Hero on Tour Modern Hits is available right now and you can pick up your copy on Amazon!
