If there's one thing that's made the Guitar Hero brand great up to now its how effortlessly they create the illusion of actually playing a musical instrument thanks largely to the lovely guitar shaped peripherals you get to play with. Unfortunately, what makes GH World Tour on the DS painful (literally) is how it spectacularly fails to create any kind of instrument-playing illusion, thanks largely to its incredibly awkward clip-on guitar grip.

Chris Buffa (Modojo): For the most part, the video game industry is fairly predictable and disinterested in taking risks. That explains the glut of sequels and copycat titles collecting dust in stores and warehouses.
That said, a handful of companies and designers occasionally do something different. Results have been mixed, but by and large, these games stand out for offering a unique experience you can't find anyplace else.
