You have the microphone for vocals, guitars for either lead or bass guitar and the drum kits for drumming along. Accordingly, each instrument has its own 'career' path in game.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eIf you are doing the vocals for your band, you have to sing along in time to the music, matching the pitch as closely as possible. Lead and bass guitar is played by holding down the fret buttons and strumming as the appropriate fret icons cross the strike line on screen. Drums are done similar to the guitars, hitting the correct drum pad's\/cymbals at the correct time. The better you do, the more points you score, however if you make too many mistakes, you will fail the song.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eYou can either play alone on any of the instrument careers, or you can play with up to three friends on one console or online to compete with other players and bands from across the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eSongs featured include Duran Duran's \u003cem\u003eRio\u003c\/em\u003e, Don McLean's \u003cem\u003eAmerican Pie\u003c\/em\u003e, Evanescence's \u003cem\u003eBring Me To Life\u003c\/em\u003e and Queen's \u003cem\u003eCrazy Little Thing Called Love\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eGame Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eClassic Wii gameplay with original physical presentation\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eGenre: Action, Simulation, 3rd-person (Other), Cinematic camera, Music \/ rhythm\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eReleased in 2009-11-06 by Activision Publishing, Inc.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eIdeal for collectors building a physical Wii library\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eCondition and contents shown in listing details and photos\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Code:\u003c\/strong\u003e BAND-HERO-WII-2009-11-06\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlatform:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wii\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGenre:\u003c\/strong\u003e Action, Simulation, 3rd-person (Other), Cinematic camera, Music \/ rhythm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePEGI Rating:\u003c\/strong\u003e TBC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Year:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2009-11-06\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Activision Publishing, Inc.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n","brand":"Retromart","offers":[{"title":"Preloved","offer_id":53312731349335,"sku":"PL-24270","price":7.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0895\/7870\/1143\/files\/0000__cd600c96fbc44a6a996cee3345aebdeb.jpg?v=1776285285","url":"https:\/\/retromart.co.uk\/products\/band-hero-wii-2009-gb","provider":"Retromart.co.uk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
