I get to the hotel with a mere 40 minutes to go before the event starts and the room I’m given is being remodeled

It started with a broken BART train.This led to a cab, which I had no money to pay for.The next storm occurred when my flight was cancelled.And then, the later flight I got bumped to was delayed by an hour and half.Oh, but it gets better.I get to the hotel with a mere 40 minutes to go before the event starts and the room I’m given is being remodeled. web watches gift Cue AJ’s head exploding So, yeah.After all that, Guitar Hero: World Tour ing owed me a good time.And by God, I got it.I had to throw a few elbows and put up with the posturing bastards attracted by the competitive edge to Guitar Hero III, but I freaking got my good time.

Here’s the thing – this game is Rock Band.No, don’t give me that crap about how it’s different, it’s better, it’s got six drumheads, so it’s totally different.It is Rock Band.And who says that’s a bad thing? I already knew how to play the jewelry instruments.Not well, mind you, but it’s not like I needed a tutorial to find the fret buttons.It’s like having a favorite candy and then they come out with a sour version that fizzes in your mouth and has Tool songs.That’s what Guitar Hero: World Tour is – the Warheads to Rock Band’s Airheads.

There are some subtle differences in appearance – the in-game visuals are more lurid and less sparkly, the fonts and vocabulary are completely different, and the Tool-themed venues are just freaking awesome creepy.And the not-so-subtle nice rolex watches differences from Rock Band aren’t that jarring because this is still a Guitar Hero game, so it’s perfectly natural to go through competitive modes and encounter devil-looking “bosses” as you plow through career mode.
