Guitar Hero Hits The DS... - PSPCrazy Forums - PSP Games, PSP Downloads, PSP News, and PSP Themes

**THUGGEDOUT** · 03-20-2008

Finally! Finally we get to know how exactly those crazy folks at Vicarious Visions will realize an authentic Guitar Hero-experience on Nintendos popular Handheld. The answer has a name: Guitar Grip! And it looks very promising! It's more or less kind of a shell-grip-controller-hybrid and fits in the GBA-Slot of the DS (either the game is only compatible to the DS lite, or there must be two versions) and covers pretty much of the handhelds back. It also has a strap for your hand to assure a good hold and enough freedom for your fingers to rock on!

Guitar Hero On Tour - Nintendo DS

The game is played with one hand in the guitar grip, holding the DS sideways - Hotel Dusk- and Kawashima-Style. The non-touchscreen shows the usual GH-"music-highway” with the indicators for the button-presses. Strumming is done with a pick (seems like it comes bundled) on the touchscreen. The gameplay itself seems absolutely the same as previous Guitar Hero iterations. You perform perfect note-strings, gain multipliers, gain star power, use star power and feel pretty damn cool. The screens even indicate a working tremolo. We wonder how this works. You absolutely have to check out the video at the bottom of this page of this news. It pretty much shows the real deal, even if it is a bit too casual for our taste. But hey, it is Guitar Hero! And it seems to rock the DS. That's what matters! Now the only thing left to do is playing the waiting game. Guitar Hero On Tour will be released sometime in summer '08. Oh curse you, waiting game!

Hey, that's pretty cool, but why are there only 4 buttons? It looks kinda hard to play tho.

psp power · 03-20-2008

wouldn't it be too easy without the orange button how the hell can you play it walking down the street lol

Seems like a good idea. I remember hearing rumors about this almost a year ago. How legit is this picture though? Were did you find it? Not that I doubt you or anything, I'm just curious. And why not at just one more button?

Lol now im gonna see poeple groovin to their DSes. The sound quality probably sux unless hooked up to a speaker.

**Cris** · 03-21-2008

I might actually buy a DS for this, it looks kinda cool, I don't really like portable games though.

klowny · 03-22-2008

i wonder if it'll be hard to play with, i'm willing to buy this if it turn's out to be a hit and for DS who wouldn't wanna show off to the public that your owning on your DS

This looks so awesome! Like it's been said before, it is missing the orange fret. It will make the game too easy. I do think this isn't a pic of the actual game play. The graphics look too good, however, the DS has been pulling it's share of gimmicks to give awesome looking graphics.

Edit: I just went to the site and has made a believer out of me! The graphics don't look as good as they do in the pic you provided though.
