Overzicht: Guitar Held Mobiel voor Blackberry

1 april, 2008 door Ronen Halevy

Kleine de keus van redacteursOverzicht: Guitar Held Mobiel door Magmic/Bplay
Het schatten: ★★★★★★★★★☆ 9/10
Kosten: $14.99 (1 keer prijs) of $4.49/month abonnement
Website: www.bplay.com

Bplay heeft een prachtig werk van het ontspannen van de Guitar ervaring van de Held op het Blackberry gedaan. Ik werd gedwongen om een geheel punt van de classificatie om één eenvoudige reden te dokken. De controles zijn een beetje onhandig op de kromme of 8800 reeksen. Enerzijds werkt het als een droom aan de parel! Begrijpen wat dat u betekent zal de rest van het overzicht moeten lezen.

Alle kan ik zeggen is dat als u Guitar van Held bij allen op uw console geniet u van het op uw Blackberry zult houden. De liederen zijn groot en ik had een ontploffing die het spel speelt. De controles zijn de enige waarschuwing en ik wens werkelijk dat in de volgende update Bplay ons de controles aan onze eigen speelstijl zal laten aanpassen.

Het kopen: Het spel kan in twee modellen worden gekocht. Een één keer aankoop van $14.99 die voor bijgewerkte liederen of $4.49 per maand abonnement toestaat. 3 nieuwe liederen zullen elke maand worden vrijgegeven en u kunt hen van de toepassing gemakkelijk bijwerken. Op dit ogenblik zijn er geen updates buiten de originele 15 liederen. Ik ben niet helemaal zeker wat de verschillen tussen de twee prijsmodellen buiten dat maar ik zijn zal proberen te weten te komen.

Installatie: Installeer was vrij voorwaarts maar het spel is kolossale 1MB. Ik veronderstel zij ruimte nodig hadden om alle liederen op te slaan. Volgens Bplay, Guitar Mobiele is de Held compatibel met 7130/8100/8700/8300/8800 (en derivaten) behalve 8707as het contactdoos geen verbindingen steunt.

De controles: Dit is de enige waarschuwing met het spel. Als u een Parel hebt bent u gouden maar met een Kromme of 8800 kunt u sommige kwesties hebben. U kunt hieronder lezen in het beeld hoe de controles werken.

Er zijn 3 lijstwerken in het spel geen kwestie als u op de gemakkelijke, middelgrote, of harde wijzen speelt. Deze lijstwerken worden gedrukt door R, Y, en de sleutels van U of de sleutels onder hen te klikken. Op de Parel is dit een gemakkelijke prestatie omdat dit de drie middensleutels zoals hieronder getoond zijn:

Enerzijds met de kromme hebt u een bizarre opstelling voor de sleutels die u soms maken de verkeerde knopen duwen.

Personally the way I would have set it up would be like this for two handed play

Now on to the actual game. Below you see the main screen and the next screen which allows you to easily set the sound.

You then enter in your nickname and on the next screen see the main menu.

You can then click “quick play” to start up a one time game. You start off with the opening licks which gives you 4 classic songs. BTW there are no more frets in the expert version compared to the easy version.

Some gameplay screenshots. Keep in mind I sucked because it is very hard to take screenshots while playing the game. I did run into some lags where incoming emails or calendar reminders would cause the flow of the game to pause and me to screw up. The have the same score board on the left and the rock meter on the right.

There is also a campaign mode where you can choose to be one of two characters.

There is also a choice between 4 guitars that you can unlock but you only start with 1. You can see two below…

There are also acievements to unlock for extra goodies…

After each set your score is uploaded or updated to Bplays servers allowing you to see where you stand in the rankings. Pretty HOT! I like where Bplay is going with this.

I tried clicking on the update tracks button on the main menu and got the message below. It seems like we will have to wait until next month for new tracks.

Pros:

  • Classic Guitar Hero gameplay
  • Great selection of songs
  • Ability to post your score to the rankings online
  • Unlockable extras
  • Ability to download new tracks in the future

Cons:

  • Key configuration on the Curve and 8800 series
  • Gameplay stutters sometimes when messages or reminders come up

Conclusion:

All in all I think that Guitar Hero is now one of my favorite games for BlackBerry. It would be even better if Bplay updated the game to allow users to set their own keys. If you have a 8100 Pearl you will have no problem with the controls. I was playing on an 8310 and even with the odd key configuration the game is as addictive as the console version.

The price may be a bit high compared to Bplays other offerings but the game is worth it. I would stay away from the subscription since $4.49/month can add up quickly compared to $14.99 for a year. This is one quality offering from Bplay. Hopefully the next revision will win it the Editors Choice award.

So what are you waiting for? Pick up your copy from Bplay

    Great port from the console version. I bought the full version hoping this will keep me interested for the next three months, at least. I think the subscription is intended for the more casual player who would likely delete it after two months or so. After all, some money made is better than none made. Interesting business model.

    I recently bought it and so far I haven’t been able to play it.
    Everytime I open the game, after the sound configuration screen, the games crashes and a message of some java.leng error appears.
    Could be an isolated case, but wanted to warn you just in case.

    This game was actually developed by Hands-On Mobile and not Bplay.

    I downloaded the free trial (only one song) to see what it was like playing GH3 on my phone. It hangs for a minute or so every once in a while, but I can deal with that. What I can’t deal with is the fact that the music doesn’t sync up with visuals. I hear the note play, but I don’t have to push the button for another 3-4 seconds. It really messes me up. I find that I have to play the game with the sound off.

    Does anyone else have this issue? I’d buy the darned thing if this could be fixed.

    I downloaded the trial, and I know this is just a smartphone, but General MIDI tones kinda turned me off. Four frets would have been nicer, as the only challenge for me was on Expert. All in all, kinda fun but no way would I pay as much money for this as they want.
