Guitar Hero: Screenshot Tour

We find the latest screens (in our gallery) of the Wii version of Guitar Hero: World Tour a bit visually disjointed, but at least they prove that Vicarious Visions has their priorities straight: while the characters are kind of jaggy, the note charts are silky-smooth. We've never cared about the graphics in a Guitar Hero game before, and we're not about to start now. It could look like an Atari 2600 game and we would like it just as much. Maybe more, actually.

The screens do include a quick look at the music creation mode, which shows chords being assigned to button combinations. That is super-cool.

With how much I typically pay more attention to the falling dots, as long as it looks good in my peripheral vision, it's fine by me. With as much as they're packing in not to leave us out, I'm surprised we aren't just getting characters from kingdomofloathing.

was mii support ever announced for this? when i saw that one shot, my mind immediately jumped to wii music. then i noticed all the other things were guitar hero things and my mind jumped to some weird mix of wii music and guitar hero.

i dubbed it guitar wiiro.

I beg to differ. After getting used to Gh3 on my wii i went to my friends house and played Gh2 on his Ps2 and the graphics were horrible and i actually couldnt play as well. It didnt matter a lot but i could definetly tell.
