Instrument wise, those who have tried and tested the game are more impressed with the guitar’s performance as it has a neck slider and a slip free strummer. The included drum set also made a rave for its improved “floating” drum pad design and quiet drum heads. There’s a provision for double pedals and the updated kick pedal is more responsive, so it is now easier to play along those double bass beats.
Released last November 3, 2009, the game is available for Sony Playstation 2, Playstation 3, Microsoft Xbox 360, Nintendo Wii and Nintendo DS Consoles.
