Finally, we took a look at theWii version ofGuitar Hero 5. For once, Wii owners have nothing to feel slighted about — this edition ofGH 5offers all of the same features and gameplay modes, online and offline, as the high-definition versions.
Later tonight, we’ll have some media of country legend Johnny Cash in the game, and tomorrow, we’re going to close out this ring of fire with impressions of the all-new GHStudio song creation mode.
