Review: Been playing this for just under a week now, as has my 10 year old son, damn good fun! The 'grip' doesn't though. What I mean is it doesn't have a firm enough grip on the DS, which can get detached, and you have to reboot the DS (not a big deal, just a niggle). This was improved by the addition of a couple of self-adhesive foam dots to the underside of the grip. If you have a DS and enjoy Guitar Hero on any of the other consoles, and don't care if people think you might be a bit mental (I play in my lunchbreak in an open plan office, I don't care WTF people think, but I DO use earphones), then this is just about a "must-have" for £30.
Pros: Total Blast.

You can 're-skin' the grip! ('Free' printable files can be found on the US guitarheroontour website, but not on the UK site)
Cons: Slightly wobbly fit between grip and DS.

The buttons are a bit tightly packed, at least if you have thick fingers like mine.

'Free' printable skin files can be found on the US guitarheroontour website, but not on the UK site - Why is that, Activision?
