Thanks to Mom Central my family recently had a chance to test out the all new Guitar Hero On Tour: Modern Hits and Decades Nintendo DS Games. We thankfully received these to test out before we left for our recent Florida Trip. These became a blessing on the plane and for pit stops at the hotel.
Guitar Hero On Tour: Modern Hits was the first one he tried out. It is also his favorite one. He liked the Fan Request because it’s like a contest and the contests are about how many notes you can hit. Since my son has my competition gene this is big LOL! The “fan requests” can be bass gu

Simply slide the peripheral into the your DS‘ Game Boy Advance slot and you are ready to shred through 28 master tracks of the hottest Modern Rock available, as well as additional tracks from previous On Tour games, which can be streamed in multiplayer modes.
New Playable Character Calista Valenz
Calista Valenz is tough as nails and sweet like candy, with a smile that can melt any man’s heart. Her motto is, “Fake it until you make it,” and she has a habit of telling strangers today is her birthday. Calista once volunteered to spend a week in jail for charity and was put behind bars on a Monday, got bored, and somehow escaped that Tuesday. She spent a month running from the law, even though no one was looking, and hid out at a night club. The rocker pretended to be a lead guitarist, and during her first show, a record promoter told her she was a no talent hack. She smacked him upside the head with a sausage and dumped spaghetti down his pants, all with a smile. He stood up and immediately signed her to a lifetime contract.

Guitar Hero On Tour: Decades was another game we got to try out. This one was great because we could compete against other players. This game was a lot harder for my son because it had a lot more notes coming at a faster pace. However, once you got the hang of it in my opinion it only made it that much more fun!
