Guitar Hero - On Tour DecadesNintendo DS, Activision, E 10+ (Everyone 10+)
Description: A pint-sized version of the music-rhythm game.
Features: The game features 28 tracks from the '70s, '80s and '90s. A palm-sized color-coded keyboard attaches to the DS through the GameBoy cartridge slot, allowing players to hit the notes as they strum the touchpad.
Due to limitations of the DS speakers the game is best enjoyed with headphones.
Players can challenge each other to a duel via a Wi-fi connection and sabotage their performances. The oddest feature is the use of the DS microphone (yelling, "Rock On") to activate the star power feature. For those who "just have" to play Guitar Hero in some incarnation every waking minute of the day it can be enjoyable. For casual fans it's more like spraying salad spritzer on a heaping bowl of lettuce. Grade: C
