THE LITTLE MAGAZINE THAT COULD!

BACKAYARD is not exempt to this ‘recession,’ and as such, we are trying to find a way to cope and keep the dream alive.

Guitar Hero: World Tour

Activision

Xbox 360, PS2, PS3, Wii

Activision ups the ante with another full band game. It’s even more than full band – it’s got an 8 player battle of the bands mode that is guaranteed to turn anyone into a fierce musical competitor. A new guitar controller (how many of these things do I need in my living room?) and microphone are joined by an authentic electronic drum kit with three drum pads, two raised cymbals and a bass kick pedal. The game boasts a huge selection of classic and modern rock and a huge downloadable library even on the Wii. Check out the FREE downloadable reggae pack which includes Slightly Stoopid's "Jimi", Pepper's "Your Face", and "Sacrifice" from The Expendables.
