More stylophone, less guitar. Guitar Hero World Tour feels like a re-union of The Flying Pickets for Ewan. With limited graphics and Java-quality MIDI music, and without a plastic accessory in sight, this Ovi Store title is more 'cash in' than 'rockin'. Here's our Ovi Gaming review.

Nokia should really think about getting iphone devs to port their games like sony and microsoft do.
Tap Tap Revenge is such a great rythm game.
I really don't see any of the creativity in s60 titles that you see in iphone games.
Nokia should attract some good developers, their installed base is huge.

This isn't an S60 title, it's a Java game. It will run on S60 phones, but it will also run on non-S60 phones too.
As for creativity in S60 games, try some of Nokia's first party titles like Reset Generation:

This isn't a Nokia game, it's published by Activision. Nokia has absolutely no control over what Activision does.
Third party games like this have absolutely no connection to Nokia.

This game was developed for Activision by Connect2Media, who are also an iPhone dev.
Until Nokia provides a good way to develop C++ games on S60, you can forget about game studios spending to much time on it.
Java games run on more headsets, and provide a better return on investment as targeting only S60 devices, that need to be programmed in a primitive C++ dialect (Symbian C++).
At least the visuals look better than gamelofts "Guitar Rock" or whatever it was called......pitty the music is still MIDI Tones.
Questions though, are the songs in sync with the notes? (as gamelofts was a few seconds out), how many and what songs are on the game?
Looks like Activision is yet again "milking" the guitar hero franchise....but if u want a hand-cramp play the DS Version - 2 songs (if not 1) and you will be crying in pain Literally!.
