Guitar Hero World Tour

Hello My Name is Dan and I would like to tell you a little bit about Guitar Hero World Tour.
First of, the most anticipated is the tracks on the game. The confirmed tracks on Guitar Hero World Tour are:Are You Gunna Go My Way-Lenny Kravitz
Beat It- Michael Jackson
Bullet With Butterfly Wings-Smashing Pumpkins
Everlong- Foo Fighters
Hot For Teacher-Van Halen(used in the e3 2008 conference test)
In The End-Linkin Park
The Joker- The Steve Miller Band
Light My Fire-The Doors
Wind Cries Mary-Jimi Hendrix
Purple Haze(Live)-Jimi Hendrix
One Armed Scissor-At The Drive In
Obstacle 1-Interpol
Never Too Late-The Answer
Rebel Yell-Billy Idol
And to top off that list is.. Santeria-Sublime

Now in the one of the issues of Game Informer, the right up of Guitar Hero World Tour, it has been said that The Eagles were confirmed in the game. Some other bands and artists that have been mentioned in the game are Korn, Dream Theater, System Of A Down, Tool, Ozzy Ozbourne, Muse, and Paramore.Now in World Tour Neversoft has added more Boss Battles to make you really work in the career. The named guitarists are: Sting(The Police), Ozzy Ozbourne(Black Sabbath), Ted Nugent(The Amboy Dukes), Billy Corgan(The Smashing Pumpkins), Jimi Hendrix, Hayley Williams(Paramore), and Zak Wylde(Black Label Society).In the older Guitar Hero games (Guitar Hero,Guitar Hero 2, Guitar Hero 3, Guitar Hero Aerosmith), there were pre-made characters and guitars. In World Tour there is full customization. The characters are fully customized as well as there clothing and accessories. Also to make your band even more interesting, you can create your own type of guitar, drums, or vocals. Also an addition to World Tour your customization has gone even farther. You and your friends have the ability to create album cover and band logos. It couldnt get any better!

The Instruments:
Starting with the name of the games instrument, guitar. The guitar, once again wireless, has added some new features. The finish on the guitar is not so boring GH3(black) GH2(white). In World Tour they have added a sunburst finish to the guitar. Another addition, the guitar has a touch sensitive slide pad. The pad is there to enhance the tapping parts of songs. Its not buttons but more as just the lighter material built into the guitar to make your fingers slide across the notes. In the songs it will indicate when to use the the slide pad with a higlighted fretboard. The drums in World Tour have been slightly tweaked from the Rock Band drums. Instead of 4 pads and a foot pedal, Neversoft decided to add cymbals. They have gotten rid of 1 pad to confirm. It will be a crash cymbal, a ride cymbal, 3 pads and a foot pedal. The pads are velocity sensitive so when you play a song with alot of notes your not waking up the household. The cymbals are raised so you are not hitting the pads after you hit the cymbals. And a hassle to Rock Band's drumset was hard assembly and takes up alot of space. Now with Guitar Hero's new drums set it has been said to be easy assemble and disassemble. It has been said but not officialy confirmed that there will be, like rock band 2, a well and more pricy drumset for the hardcore players.

Custom Songs:

This will be interesting. The custom song maker will be a key feature that might put Guitar Hero over Rock band 2 on the charts. You will be able to put notes and make it sound the way you want. Gutair add orange orange blue green then go insane. You choose. You want to have alot of crashes in your song, then add it. This custom song maker lets you basically do everything and anything to your song. Then when your done you can upload it to Xbox Live, Playstation Network etc. and let the whole world listen to it and play it. That is basically just new songs every minute. The game will never get old to music lover and family gamers. The uploading and searching will be like itunes sort of.
