The music selection is great and the four person multiplayer is the real highlight.
-
Regardless of whether or not the setlist is everybody’s cup of tea, Band Hero’s many additions and mechanical enhancements easily make it the most solid of the franchise’s handheld iterations.
-
Band Hero takes the musical genre one step further, and demonstrates its viability on handheld platforms. It might be some time before it replaces the console versions, however. A better guitar, and a more serious dedication to rewarding gameplay would really draw the crowds.
-
Band Hero is fun and has a bunch of good tunes if you like junk food music like I do, but this is the same experience you’ve been getting out of the Guitar Hero On Tour franchise.
-
Band Hero is a solid addition to the portable series, but as they continue to segregate the franchises the audiences will continue to dwindle.
-
Band Hero for DS is a fun portable music game, but contains enough head-scratching design elements to be frustrating.
