Today Aspyr and Activison announced Guitar Hero World Tour for the Mac and Windows. So if you are a gamer but not into consoles, you just have to wait until this summer to have in your hands this popular game. The game will be rated “T” for teens by the ESRB.

About the controllers, it seems that they’ll be introducing them for the first time: “Guitar Hero World Tour for PC and Mac offers state-of-the-art wireless controllers to computer gamers for the first time”. And about the compatibility with console controllers, there is no word yet, so we’ll have to wait until summer.

So in conclusion:

  1. Coming out summer ’09.
  2. Controllers for Mac/PC being introduced.
  3. Rated “T” for teens by ESRB.
  4. Unknown if console controllers will be compatible.
  5. Taken from their site: “New online and offline gameplay modes and a Music Studio feature for composing and editing original rock and roll anthems. Guitar Hero World Tour is the most complete music game to-date with 86 on-disc tracks from music legends”.

And finally something interesting from the announcement:

“Guitar Hero World Tour is the standard for music games on consoles and we can’t wait to unleash this incredible experience on computer gamers,” said Ted Staloch, Executive Vice President, Aspyr Media. “With full band play, support for the new wireless controllers, the ability to create their own music and an amazing array of customization options, Guitar Hero World Tour will be the definitive music game on PC and Mac.
