Game Description

Guitar Hero delivers another chart-topping performance with new modes, new music, and more customization than ever before. For the first time, set your band's lineup anyway you like by adding or removing guitarists, drummers, bassists, and vocalists. New Party Play Mode lets players jump in, tap out, or alter their difficulty level while the jam seamlessly rolls on. RockFest sends you into rock 'n' roll battles against other players in multiple musical showdowns. Rock with your Mii in new Wii-exclusive modes. And, if all you want to do is shut up and rock, you've got 85 master tracks from artists like Tom Petty, Johnny Cash, and Kings of Leon just waiting for you to shred.
