Wireless Instruments

New to GHWT is a redesigned, more responsive guitar controller, which features a touch-sensitive slide bar on the neck that allows the player to play through certain song passages without needing to strum.

Be the Next Great Songwriter

Music Studio lets players express their musical creativity by giving them access to a full complement of tools to create digital music from scratch utilizing the guitar controller and drum kit. Players can create their tracks and then play them in-game or share the recordings with the entire Guitar Hero community through GHTunes. GHTunes allows other gamers from around the world to download and play the community's original tracks. Available to Xbox 360 gamers is Line 6's guitar tone technology, enabling them to use amps, cabs, and effects from the Line 6 POD.

Create the Band

Budding rock stars can live out their rock ?n’ roll fantasies by playing either a single instrument or any combination of instruments, in addition to the full band experience. When rocking as part of a band, up to four players can jam together in quickplay or as they progress through a career. Both band and single-player careers feature non-linear progression giving artists the option to change difficulty and instruments with a variety of different gigs available at any time.

Never Jam Solo Again

Virtual musicians in need of band mates can take their careers online forming worldwide ensembles so no rock star ever has to play a gig solo. Plus, GHWT adds a "Battle of the Bands" modes, which allows eight players to join online and challenge each other band-to-band to establish global supremacy.

Customize Everything

The character creator allows gamers to create a rock star with style as unique as their own. Absolute customization from the clothes, to the facial and body structure, to the tattoos and accessories, players are encouraged to unleash their inner rock legend. The Rock Star Creator doesn't just allow players to build the ultimate rock god; the in-depth creators include the ability to customize guitars, drums and microphones. Adding yet another layer of personalization, gamers can create custom logos for their instruments, band, or album covers.

4 out of 5 stars Fun the whole family can play!   January 7, 2009
C. Perkins (Alaska)
Bought this game and a previous version for 2 guitars. Fun for the whole family!


5 out of 5 stars Better than rock band   January 6, 2009
K. Kopas
I have both rock band 2 and Guitar hero world tour, and actually find GH more fun. It is fun when Ozzie comes out on stage to sing for you, or travis barker comes out to bang on his drums. Experiences you just don't get with Rock Band 2. I like the Rock Band 2 Guitar better, 'cause it looks a bit more realistic, but the GHWT axe is nice also. Can't speak for the drums though.


1 out of 5 stars It's true - the guitar is faulty   January 6, 2009
Maynard G. Krebbs (NC)
I was hoping that I would get lucky but it was not to be. The guitar is faulty - it will not register the strum. Amazon is willing to send a replacement so we'll see if that one works. Buying this package is a gamble.

If you don't have guitar hero 3, buy that package and then just buy the game for this version. The guitar hero 3 controller is better and will work with this version.



5 out of 5 stars malfunctioning controller   January 6, 2009
jqd (RI)
game is fun, but had to return the controller because the strum bar was sticking.


2 out of 5 stars Teerible Guitar - Buyer Beaware   December 23, 2008
J. Carlisle (Washington, DC)
The game itself if fine, but the guitar is a piece of crap, the strum failed after 3-4 hours of play. I exchanged for a new guitar, guess what, exact same thing happend with the new guitar after a few hours of play. The strum bar will not register downward stum every few notes, very irratating. Should have bought Rockband 2.
