With Rock Band finally coming to European shores (although currently only on the Xbox 360 ) with the Nintendo Wii also getting its own version and Aerosmith getting ready to lay down a whole game based on their exploits (without the drugs/sex/arguments etc), one might have forgotten that the Nintendo DS is also getting it’s own version of Guitar Hero.

In the first entry of it’s new blog, Karthik Bala (one of the developers and CEO of Vicarious Visions) has given a brief sampling of the development process of Guitar Hero: On Tour (available in North America on June 22nd 2008, June 26th 2008 for Australlia and July 18th in Europe).

Bala is nice enough to give us an insight on how the title has developed over the last year (including the evolution of the Guitar Grip) but it’s still pretty empty on actual game-play footage, in game screenshots and more importantly, just what the heck it’s going to sound like.

Still, it’s an interesting read, and it can be found here

(and well done to anyone who got the Radiohead reference in the title)
