Guitar Hero World Tour launch trailer is amazing

Look. We hate rhythm action games. But Activision’s Guitar Hero World Tour launch trailer made us want to play it. It’s got the Chilli’s drummer saying it’s “revitalising the music industry” and Sting wanking on about how great it is. It’s got Ted Nugent saying the word “spiritual”. It’s got it all.

Goosebumps, honestly. After the break. The game launched in the US earlier this week.

I much much prefer the Rock Band 2 trailer. With the desert Rock bands playing on muscle cars. Woohoo. What do I care about the Prince of fucking darkness. They manage to make me want that *without* showing famous faces or game footage even.

exactly, rb2 doesnt show you a bunch of sellouts lol. i was more tempted to get rock band than guitar hero, even with all the big stars in gh:wt.

im pretty sure guitar hero will still sell more than rock band(maybe?) but i find that guitar hero is losing some of its appeal =/ too bad
