The Guitar Hero World Tour guitar slider was sending analog values. The Guitar Hero 5 guitar controller’s slider is digital, reducing the chance for error and latency. On the surface of the slider we added slight reliefs (like the one on the yellow fret button) to the middle slider fret and the top and bottom slider frets. This way you can feel exactly where your fingers are. There are also colored dots on the neck of the guitar controller near the slider that correspond to the colors of the frets. This allows you to quickly look down and see where your fingers should be (if the reliefs aren’t enough for you). All of these changes to the slider allow you to hit the tapping sections with better precision – we also removed the purple rope in the tapping/slide sections of game play by the way :). For those who are musically inclined, GHStudio’s all new expressive guitar controller capabilities is where the slider will really shine.

I can’t say this makes a difference for me personally, as I didn’t intend to purchase the game in the first place, but perhaps for some people this will be a major selling point of a new guitar, rather than sticking to the World Tour guitar.

Following the disappointment regarding the lack of downloadable content for The Conduit, High Voltage Software announced that such things would be implemented in their future titles on Wii. As of now, however, the company is not entirely sure how this will work as far as Nintendo’s DLC system, and is looking at exactly what aspects they can take advantage of, and what parts will need to be worked with.

“…we are still evaluating what Nintendo’s DLC system will allow us to do. Once we figure that out, I can better explain our plans. We do want to use DLC. We are planning on using it at this time, but until I know the specifics of how Nintendo is going to enforce their DLC parameters I cannot be 100% as to how we will take advantage of it. ” – David Pellas, High Voltage
