Guitar Hero Heads to an Xbox 360 Near You?

by Nelson Rodriguez

Euro Gamer is reporting that Activision chairman Robert Kotick announced that the rock god simulator will be arriving on consoles other than the PS2.  While not a direct admission of a plan for a 360 version, the chairman indicated that the game would be available on "every significant format" in 2007.

Is the Xbox 360 a "significant format"?  Many will pray that Activision thinks so.  I suspect the statement can mean nothing else.  RedOctane, the developers of the game have refused to comment.

I'm not a rock fanatic, but I admit I have snuck my way into a Walmart game department to get a little guitar action.  The game is probably even more fun in the privacy of your own home, or with a bunch of friends joining you in your shame joy.  PS2 owners care to comment?

Here is the PS2 blurb for the three of you who haven't heard of the game:

Guitar Hero from the makers of Karaoke Revolution uses a plastic guitar peripheral so that gamers can show their skills at crunching power chords and nailing a tough solo. The guitar features five buttons on the fretboard and a plastic button that can be tapped up or down where the strings would be strummed. Playing the songs here is simply a matter of holding down the right fret buttons and tapping the strum button in time with the music. This is all done along with the commands that scroll down the screen in an interface that's very similar to that seen in Frequency or Amplitude. Gameplay is simple: there are five lines on the screen for the five different buttons. Markers scroll down the lines and as they hit the bottom of the screen the corresponding "notes" need to be hit. The game features multiple skill levels and about 30 songs.

oh my god, if this game comes out for the Xbox 360 I'll cry. That was my only regret selling my PS2, getting the first Guitar Hero. Oh please, Oh please!
