“Players can buy Decades and play against someone who doesn’t have the title with on-line local sharing”
Unless you’ve never been remotely around the world of video games, chances are very good that you’ve heard of Guitar Hero. Well, the stage is almost set for the next round of GH releases on the major platforms as well as the handheld version. Neversoft is behind the PS3 and 360 console versions with Vicarious Visions handling the DS and Wii platform iterations.
It was the DS iteration that held center stage at a teleconference held Wednesday, October 15. GameZone was invited along to hear the particulars of Vicarious Visions Guitar Hero On Tour: Decades.
David Nathanielsz and the crew from Vicarious Visions were on one end, fielding a few questions about the title, but opened the discussion by talking about one of the most prominent features of the new game, the song-sharing capabilities. For the first time, players will be able to share the song list with another user through the local WiFi connection. But least you think this is only between those who own the Decades game, think again.
It seems that when they first designed the game (and you can read GameZone’s review of the first DS release of Guitar Hero; and our preview of Decades ), they were already thinking of expansions and so Decades will be backwards compatible.
“Players can buy Decades and play against someone who doesn’t have the title with on-line local sharing,” Vicarious Visions group members stated. “Our goal is to provide the opportunity to share songs with other skus, so the opportunity is there to create a library of music.”
