Barbie and Her Sisters: Puppy Rescue - Nintendo Wii - DE

Band Hero is a karaoke/rhythm game similar to the Guitar Hero games, but aimed at the pop-loving teenage community, as well as a more group-based party game (unlike Guitar Hero, complete band instruments are included from the start). The instruments are the same as in the newer GH games. You have the microphone for vocals, guitars for lead or bass guitar, and drum kits for drum playing. Accordingly, each instrument has its own "career" path in the game. If you take on vocals for your band, you must sing in time with the music and match the pitch as accurately as possible. Lead and bass guitar are played by holding down fret buttons and strumming when the corresponding fret symbols cross the strum line on the screen. Drums are played similarly to guitars by hitting the correct drum pads/cymbals at the right time. The better you play, the more points you earn, but if you make too many mistakes, you fail the song. You can either play alone on one of the instrument careers or with up to three friends on a console or online to compete with other players and bands from around the world. Featured songs include "Rio" by Duran Duran, "American Pie" by Don McLean, "Bring Me To Life" by Evanescence, and "Crazy Little Thing Called Love" by Queen.
