Tech Gamer review Mon, 17 Aug 2009

When I first heard that the Guitar Hero franchise was coming to the DS my reaction was less than favourable. In fact, I was overwhelmed by a feeling of utter incredulity and disbelief that a handheld system could possibly do the Guitar Hero games justice. But thanks to the obvious care and attention taken with this project I was amazed to find a deep and rewarding experience with this DS version.

Essentially taking away the key component to the game would seem to be a backward step and a critical misjudgement. But the small attachment bundled with the game does an excellent job of conveying the same feeling I get when rocking out with my Les Paul on Guitar Hero 3. Although the social, living room experience has been lost to some degree I found that people would still happily stop and stare whenever I played this in the vicinity of anyone looking. Sometimes that happiness would boil down into pointing and laughing, but what the hell - if you’re going to play a plastic instrument for fun you have to expect people to poke fun at you.
