You can get this game for under a tenner on the iPod Touch/ iPhone and even at that price this review remains true.
If anything, the generic nature of the songs available only reinforce the importance of customisable songs based on user preference and/ or band themed versions such as the Aerosmith and Metallica Guitar Hero games.

That is the worst part of the game. It actually made me put it down, and i haven't picked it up since.
Why not just make a shorter career mode because they know that repeating songs just p's people off?

Why would you even consider buying this for, presumably, full price on DS when it is flouted so cheap on Istore?

I just recently reviewed this game on the iPod and judging by the review I say that the ipod version is far superior.
Sadly the ipod version shares the same repeatability as the DS version.
Overall the ipod version feels like a more 6.5 - 7.8 score wise.
The DS version just looks shithouse quite frankly. (pardon my french) _________________

I think the iPod Touch version looks better than the DS version, though I haven't played either, just seen pics/videos etc.

With GH Decades coming out and the original GH DS title such a surprise in terms of quality, you'd be mad to buy this. MAD I TELLS YA!...
