Those who can’t long for Guitar Hero but couldn’t afford a Wii, PS3 or XBox 360 can always go with Frets on Fire. While the free, open-source game is meant to be played with a keyboard, hardcore fans now has an option to enjoy the PC knock off of Guitar Hero with a guitar-lookalike accessory. Called Riff Rocker, the wired controller that is designed to milk Frets on Fire followers connects to USB, but is criticized for being too small to hold with both hands.
All the fret buttons are located on the narrow neck; this arrangement makes your fingers cramped together, resulting in a less than pleasant gaming experience. Every Riff Rocker comes with 5 custom game plate stickers for personalization. Perhaps the best advantage of the miniature USB guitar is the hardware cross-platform support – the same with the game itself. If you appreciate miniature controllers, then Aptus has a couple of those with motion control you may dig.Permanent Link
