When the peripheral attachment for Guitar Hero: On Tour was revealed, most people’s first reactions (including my own) were that it (A) looked extremely uncomfortable, and (B) didn’t simulate playing an actual guitar like the console versions. Many predicted that would fail spectacularly as a quality title while lining Activision’s coffers with even more franchise-whoring cash.
Two days ago, members of the press (including yours truly) were given some hands-on time with the upcoming DS iteration of the million-selling rock star simulation franchise, which will be out on June 22nd.
