I'm not overly familiar with this female duo, but popular to to the tween generations, teen pop band Aly and AJ, will be coming out with their own guitars for games like Guitar Hero and Rock Band for the Wii and PS2 in a few weeks. Each guitar will cost a cool $70, and fans will be able to choose from Aly's Guitar, which will feature a heart and cross bone print in a pink and brown color, or AJ's pink Guitar that features a purple zebra print and is in the shape of a heart. Performance Designed Products, the makers of the guitars, will create one of the guitars specifically for tweens, ages 8 to 12 while the other will be targeted for teens and older.

If you were waiting patiently for more details on the latest installment of Guitar Hero, Guitar Hero 5, then let me offer you this peek of the franchise's latest peripheral: the new guitar.
Shiny and pretty, is it not? The main changes are to the slider, which instead of analogue signals, now sends digital signals.

Oh, Guitar Hero, no matter how much more I focus on Rock Band these days, you are still my hero.
Therefore, I need to get my button-strumming hands on this Guitar Hero Wall Decal ($18).
It's just too apropos for me— though where to put it?

If you don't think you'll be able to break away from Guitar Hero long enough to check out Wii Music this October, but like the idea of seeing your Mii rock out on guitar then you, my friend, are in luck. The Wii version of the upcoming Guitar Hero World Tour will have a special game exclusive to Wii players called "Mii Freestyle" that lets you jam with a friend, and see your Mii playing along on screen.
Similar to the game's Music Studio mode, Mii Freestyle lets you pick and choose the notes you play (hence the whole freestyle concept), and you can even jam with the Nunchuck and Wiimote air-guitar style.

Remember back in May, when David Archuleta and David Cook of American Idol rocked out in their tighty-whities to Old Time Rock N' Roll for Guitar Hero? Well Activision Publishing is back in full force with their latest installment of their "Risky Business"-inspired Guitar Hero ads; a new commercial for Guitar Hero World Tour, which hits stores today. Directed by Brett Ratner, the commercial features big sports stars jamming — like Kobe Bryant (on the mic), Tony Hawk (on the drums) and Michael Phelps and Alex Rodriguez (on the guitar).

If you're secretly longing to grab a seat for the American Idols Live! tour this year then you may now have a good excuse to go without being made fun of by your friends: they'll let you tinker around with the new Guitar Hero World Tour system, and then compete during a special "half-time" competition between Idols and fans.
Since Guitar Hero has already made friends with the Idol franchise, enlisting the top two Davids to star in their hilarious Risky Business commercials, it's only natural that they would take them on tour as a cool opening band.

Guitar Hero has just gotten a whole lot sexier thanks to Colorware's customizable color options for your guitar! When I spotted this pink version on Shiny Shiny I realized that my black and white guitar needed a serious makeover (and the stickers just have to go). Colorware can color your Wii, Xbox 360 and PS3 guitars, whatever your fancy, with prices starting at $99.

You've got Band Hero, DJ Hero, Beatles Rock Band, Rapstar — the list of upcoming video games is a music lover's dream. But with all these new music-focused games, is there still room for the arguable originator, Guitar Hero, set to release its fifth iteration next month?
The new GH will feature a new guitar and the ability to import old Guitar Hero songs, and it will support four players for simultaneous playing.

Generally, when I'm getting ready to "shred" on Guitar Hero, I just wear something that won't get in the way of using the whammy bar (though one day, I'm going to dress up as Casey Lynch if I can amass that much leather).
Now I may have to throw on this Ryde Guitar Hero Tee ($24).
The tee, which is also available in black and white, is good for rocking inside and showing your love on the street.

Last week I was chatting online with some of you, and atoxicsparkle had the guts to admit she's totally addicted to Guitar Hero. Let me start off by saying, I'm so glad I'm not the only one because on more than one occasion my friends and I have gone out for cocktails and ended up at home playing Guitar Hero into the wee hours, and secondly, I'm not sure I've ever seen anything cuter than Atox rocking out to the game while her niece Savannah joins in the fun.
What is Guitar Hero?
