Rock Guitar Tour

The box art for Guitar Rock Tour is deceptively informative. You see a dark-haired girl in a tie and miniskirt playing a guitar, and a nondescript dude banging on the drums. And guess what? You’ll be playing either drums or guitar
in this rhythm action game, and that girl is the default character in
Quick Play mode. Simple, no? Femophobes shouldn’t worry, though: there
are five other characters you can use as well (they’re in career mode), and some of them are mens.

The question thus becomes, “are you a drummer
or a guitarist”? That’s important too, because it’ll have a big impact
on how you enjoy the game. Neither is instrument is perfect, but we did
find one to be better realized than the other.

We’ll start with guitar. Have you played Guitar Hero on Tour for the DS, holding the DS sideways like a book and using the wild attachable buttons? Well, forget about that. Guitar
Rock Tour keeps the DS horizontal as God intended, and draws you six
buttons across the bottom screen to tap, swipe (for chords), or hold
down with the stylus, depending upon what colored gems slide down the
rails.

The top screen just shows your band playing, so you can ignore it. You
may want to tap the d-pad left or right now and then, though – that’s
how you trigger your bonus power (the usual score multiplier) or your
special power: a wash of flame that streams up the note grid, burning
away every note currently onscreen. It’s a nice way to get out of trouble if you’ve lost your place.
