In a recent brief chat with “Rush Hour” director and Activision consultant Brett Ratner, MTV Multiplayer learned two interesting little factoids. One: Brett Ratner is the rat bastard responsible for the confusing and non-discernible name of the “complete band game” called oddly enough: Guitar Hero World Tour. Two: Activision has retained some common sense beyond their actual hiring of Ratner in that they have so far refused to allow him to make a Guitar Hero movie.

An article in BusinessWeek confirms what Activision has already been touting: Guitar Hero: On Tour for the Nintendo DS system has Rocked Out in sales! Regardless of our take, the game is clearly a hit and came in second only to Metal Gear Solid 4 with sales of 422,300 units. Video game sales in general continue to be the shining spot in an increasingly shaky economy. Click here to read the rest of the BusinessWeek article.
Well, GH:OT hit store shelves several weeks ago, and it broke Nintendo DS sales records. For some of you, however, the question still remains… is the game actually worth taking on a plane, on the train, or even on the pot? RockGamer.com is on the scene to drop some knowledge on you with a full review.
Well, now that the game’s been out for a little over a week, here’s the full rundown of the setlist, if this helps those of you who haven’t already purchased the game to make your decision!
Tier 1 - Subway:
Ok Go - “Do What You Want”
No Doubt - “Spiderwebs”
Jet - “Are You Gonna Be my Girl”
Blink 182 - “All the Small Things”
Twisted Sister - “We’re Not Gonna Take It”
Here’s a peek at what to expect when you open up your DS box and try out your new Guitar Hero: On Tour game. I love this guy’s makeup.
In a double duo of Guitar Hero news announced today, Activision says that it is working with Nintendo to offer a bundled package that will pack together a Nintendo DS along with the Guitar Hero game and its corresponding peripheral. It’s a real twofer twofer!
This means that all those first-time gamers who never played games before a Guitar Hero game (Read: Jen) and who don’t have a Nintendo DS handheld can now get everything they need to kick out the jams in one complete package. This is the first time a third party publisher has arranged with Nintendo to pack in a game with a DS bundle, so Nintendo and Activision must be expecting big things from this game.
Thanks to the super speedy and informed folks at IGN, we now have final confirmation from Activision that Guitar Hero has gone Quad. (that means four, folks, four)
May 8, 2008 - If you’re a cheap gamer like us at IGN, it probably hurt to pay big bucks to buy all of those guitar accessories you have lying around the house. However, that $70 some-odd you paid for your Guitar Hero controllers must be looking like a bargain now, because Activision has officially announced that a fourth Guitar Hero game will be released in 2008 for all major game consoles. That is in addition to the spin-off Guitar Hero: Aerosmith that will also be launched this year. We know game consoles that have had fewer titles released for them compared to this funky little guitar accessory.
