More details on the tiny guitar rhythm sim, Guitar Hero DS
For those of you looking to jam without those heavy (but cool looking) guitar controllers for Activision‘s Guitar Hero series, you might be interested to know that the Nintendo DS will be sporting something a little more portable, but just as fun, with Guitar Hero DS.
According to Gamesarefun.com, Adrian Earle, design manager for Vicarious Visions, revealed a few details about the portable version of Guitar Hero during the Austin Game Developers Conference.
For starters, the DS version will still keep into the entire visual look and interface of the consoles. Also, what was previously assumed that the interface of the game would mimic Ubisoft‘s Jam Sessions was actually false. Instead they will be developing their own special peripheral just for the handheld version. The actual design isn’t quite finalized yet, but Earle reassures everyone that they will “absolutely love it.” At the very least this is a good way to match the mini-amp package that goes with Jam Sessions.
We’ll just have to hold out until they release the game though. Expect the game to come out much later than the console versions; probably sometime next year at the very least. Until then we’ll just keep you posted on any more updates with the tiny rhythm sim.
