Guitar Hero On Tour preview for Nintendo DS

Guitar Hero has been massively successful on the consoles, a huge hit with anyone who's ever wielded an air guitar, and this summer it's coming to a handheld near you as Guitar Hero On Tour hits the DS. We've gone hands-on this month and we're here to report on how it's translated to the portable format. Has it stayed faithful to the premise of the original, and how does it overcome the need for a guitar controller? We've got the answers to all your questions in our massive hands-on preview of Guitar Hero On Tour for the DS, only in this issue of HGZine.

We've had a hands-on look at Space Invaders Extreme this month, and we think it's a good example of a game that retains the feel of the classic original while bringing it bang up to date.

Can Smackdown vs Raw 2009 live up to this, and even develop the handheld experience further? It'll be a while before we get our hands on the full game, but we've got an early preview of Smackdown vs Raw 2009 with all the latest news in this issue of HGZine.
