** I have no connection to Harmonix or EA whatsoever. The Poll is purely for discussion. No entry will be suggested as DLC.

Is there any videos for this? I'm curious as to how this works and what makes it better than any other cell phone game.

Also, in b4 post deletion because my opinion is "worthless junk".

Skip to 2:04 for gameplay. You tap the colored guitar picks on the screen underneath the fret buttons to play the notes. Obviously it has much better graphics than the typical Rock Band cell phone game.

[Rapt0r]

Meh, doesn't seem all that interesting. Guitar Rock Tour for DS does it MUCH better with touchscreen controls and that doesn't even allow for multiple inputs.

Also, holy hell fingerprints.

[edit]Also, dat price. $10 and you dont' even get that many songs.

[aduro]

They should have just made it another amplitude clone

[amak11]

I see this being the most pirated app. I do agree that the price is a little steep for how much you get.

+1
Guitar Rock Tour DS + Guitar Grip (for holding the unit sideways, the buttons don't do anything) = win. Pity about the setlist, but what do you expect from Gameloft?

[Qwedgeonline]

The iPod version is made by EA.

[Rapt0r]

I wish we could do customs for GRT. Holy **** that would be awesome.

$10 for four 5-song sets is not that bad. Even better when you consider the free DLC (got 8 free songs so far) and the fact you can play the songs on 4 "instruments" (though Vocals mode is a bit weird in my opinion). I also like Rock Band's songs quality. If I want to play Guitar Rock Tour covers, I'll just buy it from the app store for $2.99

Voted "Other", but not sure what I'd like to see. My preferences in music are mostly not suitable for a guitar/rhythm game.

[Rapt0r]

I was referring to Guitar Rock Tour for DS, not iPhone.

[raph666]

I was referring to Guitar Rock Tour for DS, not iPhone.

I know, and I was referring to the songs covers quality. A characteristic shared by both platforms.

[Rapt0r]

Regardless, the game is definitely much more fun to play than what this looks.

[Qwedgeonline]

But have you played this? I don't care at all for Guitar Rock Tour. The drums weren't that much fun or even challenging. The guitar was okay. More challenging than the drums, but still didn't capture the feel of Guitar Hero that it was trying to mimick. I suggest you try Rock Band for the iPhone, Rapt0r. It's more challenging with the new DLC.

Ok cool, that makes sense. Now please go and create your Guitar Rock Tour thread. This way we don't end up with another boring iphone pros/cons thread that needs to be locked. It would be nice if people who actually like their iPhone and iPod Touch could enjoy a quality thread sometimes. Thanks.
