We thought that the first version of this game (Guitar Hero On Tour,
engineered for the DS, was one of the great coups of the year.
Yeah, it was a little hard on the hand - we just tightened the strap.
Our singular disappointment was that it was a play-alone experience.
With this release, Decades you now can share the music with the On Tour version.
For two players there is Face-off - compete head to head with specially designed guitar tracks
and Coop - one plays lead, the other plays rhythm or bass.
Two more new characters are also available - Clive and Midori.
The song list is awesome:
- Alien Ant Farm - "Smooth Criminal"
- The All-American Rejects - "Dirty Little Secret"
- Blind Melon - "No Rain"
- Blondie - "One Way Or Another"
- Bon Jovi - "You Give Love A Bad Name"
- Boston - "Rock and Roll Band"
- The Darkness - "I Believe In A Thing Called Love"
- Edgar Winter Group - "Free Ride"
- Fall Out Boy - "The Take Over, The Breaks Over"
- Foo Fighters - "The Pretender"
- Free - "All Right Now"

- Lenny Kravitz - "Are You Gonna Go My Way"
- Linkin Park - "One Step Closer"
- Los Lobos - "La Bamba"
- Lynyrd Skynyrd - "Sweet Home Alabama (live)"
- Paramore - "Crushcrushcrush"
- Queen - "We Are The Champions"
- R.E.M. - "The One I Love"

- Seether - "Remedy"
- Smashing Pumpkins - "Tarantula"

With a list like this - it's worth it just for the tracks.
