Activision Reveals Guitar Hero: On Tour For DS
20 March, 2008
Activision has announced it will release Guitar Hero: On Tour, a version of the Guitar Hero rhythm game in development by Vicarious Visions for Nintendo DS.
The game will be packaged with a "Guitar Grip" that fits into the DS GBA port and features four colored keys. It also comes with a pick stylus with the aim of preserving the style of the console gameplay; the DS is played sideways, open-book style, to facilitate this.
The game supports local wireless co-op and battle, and new gameplay mechanics have been added to make use of the DS. For example, Activision says that in Battle Modes, players will need to blow into the microphone to extinguish pyrotechnics gone awry or scribble autographs with the stylus mid-set.
"
I think the second and the third screen will play an important role in building brands and consumer loyalty going forward. You watch the first screen (TV) from a distance, look into the second screen (PC) from nearer distance (two feet away) and then you have your third screen (mobile) with you 24 x 7 and very close to you. How effectively you use these third and second screens is the way forward for any brand. "
The games has a steep learning curve but once you learn it..its fun.
