Guitar Hero World Tour Gets Bad Reviews

Last week, Activision released the 4th installment in the Guitar Hero series (not including Rock the 80s and Aerosmith). Guitar Hero World Tour is the franchises answer to last seasons huge success, and the first full band game ever, Rock Band.

The game features a pretty in depth song list, as well as innovations to both the instruments and the game. However, the game has been criticized in this installment, namely by the gaming industries biggest online magazine, IGN, and receiving the lowest rating in the entire GH/RB war, a 7.9.

Rock Band received a lower ranking than the first, simply due to lack of innovation with the new game, receiving a 9, while RB1 got a 9.4 rating.

Some of the flaws have been faulty instrumentation, gameplay issues, and core values in the games franchise that were just missing.

I have yet to pick up the game with instruments, but I did manage to rent the game itself today, and will be taking the guitar part of the game for a spin tonight.

I'll let you know how it goes.

Guitar Hero World Tour



So the official countdown has begun.
GHWT drops this Sunday, and despite picture above, I will be purchasing the XBOX 360 version.

It couldn't have come at a more soon time either, I just broke my second kick pedal for my rock band drums. Im hoping they will be interchangeable, but good news is, the GH drums are cross format.

Here is a rundown of the game

Here is a more in-depth look

ATL Wrap Up

So i've been back for a few days now, it's great to be back home.
There really isn't much to update. I kind of gave the run down with the printer on my MySpace blog, so read that if you want.

All I will say, is when I tell people about it, they seem to look at me pretty puzzled, but honestly, that's ok. The technology that I will be working with is fairly new, and just recently has it been perfected, but when people see it, they will be blown away.

Here are some pictures from the aquarium.

*NOTE: All of these are iPhone pictures.

ATL Trip, Day 1

Hey everyone.
I'm posting this across all my blogs, so if you're reading this on S2S, my MySpace blog, or the Anchor blog, thanks for reading.

I'm currently hanging out in the Omni Hotel, attached to the CNN center, near Olympic park in downtown Atlanta GA.

I'm here attending the SGIA convention, which is a printers convention, looking with an investor into buying a direct to garment printer, which is another service Anchor Media will be offering.

I suppose more on that later.
Moreso, I just wanted to post some sweet pictures and stuff with regards to my trip. It's sweet, check em out. More updates to come.

Follow me on Twitter for updates!

Handful of Great Movies

Here is a list of some awesome movies i've seen lately that I think are worthy to pass along!

- Burn After Reading
- Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist
- Choke

I might see some more soon, there are alot of good ones out.
Also, don't pick up Iron Man unless you get the special edition, virtually NO special features in the standard version.
