  • Abstract:  When Activision first announced a Guitar Hero game would be coming to DS, people wondered exactly how that'd even work. The eventual result of putting a special controller into the GBA slot was pretty slick considering the immense challenge, even if...

  • Abstract:  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...
