Well, today was an awesome day, especially considering it being Halloween. Today, I just got Guitar Hero World Tour, and this is my first impression of it. Now then, when I first got it, I was excited to see the opening (Sorry if I spoil it for you). The opening shows the original 3 band members are at a concert with a thousand more, and it's just a hippie with a horn of some sort. Maybe a bassoon or a clarinet. Anywho, it turns out that Lou the Devil's manager or whoever he is, owns that hippie, who then mind controls the audience and everyone turns into a rock band. This is why customizable characters are able to be made in this game.
When I first started playing the career, then I started to complain. First of all, why can't I choose the original form for Lars Umlaut, my Favorite Character? I don't like him with his black hair and mustache like make-up. I like him as he looked in Guitar Hero 2. After that, I customized a guitar and started playing. One thing that bugs me and probably everyone else is the menu for selecting songs. You get posters that allow you to select tours, and you have to play every song. Of coarse, while playing the song, you can choose to skip it, and come back to it later, but why not allow you to select the song you want to play from the start? Another thing is, they tweaked the screen again to make it that all you see is the Note chart and the movement of the characters. This is highly confusing to me, especially when the little text pops up and gave me a heart attack. I mean, I could barely read that, let alone tell that it was text telling me that I have hit a certain number of notes or something. Also, if your looking for what tells you your multiplier, it's those christmas lights on the side of the note chart.
However, this game is definitely better then Guitar Hero 3 and, I know you'll disagree with me here, Rock Band 2. For one, it is better then these things is the custom song creator! I love it! I made two songs all ready, and am planning to make more tomorrow. Another thing is that the graphics, are WAY better then they where in the GH3. I could imagine them as real people then computer generated images. Okay, so I lied their, but it's pretty convincing. The song selection is also awesome. Way better then Rock Band 2, although I learned that my favorite Gun's N Roses song is Shacklers Revenge, and that I actually like Paramore's That's what you get. But it has awesome songs, GHWT. And even though the screen organization may make me angry, and that Lars Umlaut is hideous as a Brunette, I give this game a 9/10. You should definantly get it, if I were you. See you in a week with another review!
