Nintendo DSi Matte Blue Console

$225.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
i have to warn parents looking into this system that there is no slot for game boy advance (gba, for short) or the guitar hero interface.
from www.amazon.com
personally, i don't play any gba games...i can't use my guitar hero game on the dsi but i have an old ds that still works.
from www.amazon.com
unfamiliarity with the ds lite, not knowing what will come out of dsiware, and the fact that games like geometry wars become more uncomfortable and the guitar hero games can't even be played on it.
from www.amazon.com
-the lack of a gba slot means you can't play gba games, use some of the ds lite's accessories (such as a rumble pack) and makes some games like guitar hero world tour virtually unplayable
from www.amazon.com
there is a lack of the gba slot, so no guitar hero or gba games, but that's just fine with me [i still have my gba].

if you play guitar hero on it the battery won't last as long that's the only downfall of playing that game but overall i love the ds lite!

Sony PlayStation 2 slim form factor

this console still has games coming out for it like rock band 1&2, guitar hero 3&4, but they're not all that great because the lack of online play and downloadable content.
from www.bestbuy.com
ps2 has games for all kinds of people unlike xbox or nintendo which is either only a shooter game or some kind of adventure.ps2 has every kind of game from guitar hero to call of duty or madden 08'.
from www.bestbuy.com
this system has been out for like 7 years so it has a lot of games what's not so great:?it gets boring after a while "a lot of the games are really fun like guitar hero 2 and 3 and even aerosmith.
from www.bestbuy.com
guitar hero is their favorite.
from www.amazon.com
no guitar hero: guitar hero is (currently) available only for the ps2.

i got the guitar hero game for the fun of it and it is also a fun game.
from www.amazon.com
my six-year old loves it and we got guitar hero shortly after we purchased the system so the adults in our house enjoy it too!!
from www.amazon.com
i did not care for the dual cameras on the dsi and i was upset that the gba slot was gone, so that meant no more guitar hero, which was a game i was really interested in getting.
from www.amazon.com
i bought this system with the guitar hero: on tour promotion and i absolutely love it!
from www.amazon.com
you can play classics like new super mario brothers, brain age and big brain academy, as well as recent favorites like crosswords ds and guitar hero: on tour.

this specific ps3 does have some downfalls, it only has 2 usb ports, wich would be a problem when attempting to play such games as rock band, and the soon to come out guitar hero world tour.
from www.bestbuy.com
i've only got guitar hero 3 and warhawk for it right now (which i enjoy immensely and the graphics, of course, beat the pants off my ol' ps2) but there are so many demos available for download that
from www.bestbuy.com

it:?great graphics, good controller, huge hdd what's not so great:?you might skip school/work cuz its so fun ;p "great if your getting into a game that has a lot of dlc (rock band and guitar hero).
from www.bestbuy.com
it has great games assasins creed, halo 3 ,guitar hero, rock band, call of duty.
from www.bestbuy.com
bunch of games to choose from recommend call of duty 4, guitar hero 3,halo 3.it never freezes up games look awesome on it.
from www.bestbuy.com
based on that, xbox 360 has much better games than all the rest.i just can't stop playing guitar hero ii and gears of war on my 360.
from theradialangel, reviews.cnet.com
bioshock, halo 3, mass effect, fable 2's guaranteed stardom, forza 2, pgr4, skate, guitar hero 2, gears of war, and the upcoming halo wars give a lot of healthy reasons for buying an xbox 360.

i just think that since sony knows that you need extra usb ports to play other games such as rock band and guitar hero they could at least give you 4 ports instead of 2.
from www.amazon.com
bought this unit primarily as a dvd, blueray disc player and of course to play guitar hero on.
