5 Best Practices for Smartphone Support
Released on Apr 4th this year, Red Octane have taken their popular PlayStation 2 franchise and brought it into the Next Gen Console world. The Xbox 360 version brings more of everything to being a rock god. The most obvious inclusion is a new guitar controller, dubbed the X-Plorer Controller, this is a white baby modelled on the famous Gibson guitar range as per past GH games. This one looks great with added dpad and Xbox button to complete the look. My initial reaction though was that id did not respond as well as the previous PS2 controllers, especially to flourish moves. With a bit more practice however, I am not sure this was the case. With the Xbox 360 release we have over 70 songs (See below for extra songs with this release) and the fantastic ability to download content such as new songs from Xbox Live in the future. Activision promises 12 songs available for download on launch. Online there will also be a Leaderboard to check just how well your fingers fly over the frets. Xbox 360 version of GH II will include 3 new Guitar Hero Avatars to use. Making 11 characters in this release. New Xbox 360 Tracks: Billion Dollar Babies (Alice Cooper) Hush (Deep Purple) Dead! (My Chemical Romance) Life Wasted (Pearl Jam) Rock N Roll Hoochie Koo (Rick Derringer) The Trooper (Iron Maiden) Salvation (Rancid) Possum Kingdom (Toadies) Drink Up (Ounce of Self) Kicked to the Curb (Noble Rot) {moscomment} |
