What We Think Fun Factor: Durability: (what this means) The Good: Easy to set up and fun to play The Bad: Requires a little practice to get beyond the first stages of play In a Nutshell: An engaging game that encourages girls to take center stage as a pop-rock star At a Glance Ages: 8 to 14 Requires: Four AA batteries and a television

Are You Ready For Your Nationwide Pop Tour?
The Hannah Montana video game features three game-play modes including Pop Tour, Free Play and Head to Head. In the Pop Tour mode your challenge is to move your way through major cities while adding additional songs to your play list. Your progress is monitored by a "Crowd Meter" that indicates how well you're playing each song. If you play a song well you can advance to another city and add another song to your repertoire.

In Free Play mode you can choose from any of the songs you have unlocked in the Pop Tour mode and play to your heart's content. You can also compete with a friend in the Head-to-Head mode, where you each take turns rocking out to any of the songs unlocked in the Pop Tour mode. To get started, simply have an adult insert four AA batteries into the guitar game controller and hook up the controller to a television with the AV cables provided. Once you've got the main menu up on your screen, you can choose the Tutorial option to learn how to play notes, strum a chord, play held notes and use the Crowd Meter. After you've become familiar with thee guitar game controller, you're ready to rock! The Gallery provides a place for you to view all of the awards you've won during play.

Master Your Guitar Skills Before You Take The Stage
The Hannah Montana guitar video game is a fun and challenging game that encourages girls to take the center stage as they play their favorite Hannah Montana songs on the brightly-colored guitar game controller. The controller is made of lightweight plastic and features details that are similar to a real guitar, even down to the wah-wah bar and shoulder strap.

Because this interactive game requires hand-eye coordination, it is advisable to practice using the fun Tutorial provided. In the Tutorial you will learn how to hit the right notes by pressing the correct buttons and strumming as notes drop down the screen into the Target Zone. With a little practice and a lot of fun, you can complete all three tutorials and hit center stage like a pro! And with the variety of play modes and a total of 10 Hannah Montana songs to learn and master, this game will provides hours of challenging entertainment and engaging fun.

Customer Reviews

be careful with this one, can cause injury
I will start off by saying that my 7 year old LOVED this, once she got the hang of it. She managed to unlock all of the songs in a couple of hours on the easy level, but she still likes to play for fun.

My problem is that the design was obviously not tested very well on real children. The strumming "bar" is more like a touch sensor and it's not sensitive enough so the children need to really "strum" it rather hard to play the notes.

I thought my daughter cut her thumb wide open on this, although i could not find any sharp parts. After using it at a birthday party, when the same thing happened to another child, we realized it was not a cut, but a huge blister. these kids were taking turns and no child played more than 5 minutes at a time, 2 kids, 2 blisters, bad design.

so while it may be a lot of fun, it can also be a pain, literally. wish they had thought out the design a bit and tested it on real kids. the kids will like it, but it's hard to let a child play with a toy that you know is going to cause a painful blister that will be around long after the guitar is put down.

Hanna Montana Video game Guitar
This toy was purchased for my Granddaughters Birthday. The whole family says that it is a very great and very fun toy, since it interacts with the televison. It is easy to use and very durable. I wouldn't have bought it if I didn't think that it would stand up to a family of seven.

Huge hit (even with Dad when no one was looking!!!)
I was concerned about this when I read a previous review about the kids hurting their fingers. I decided to try it anyway. This was a gift for our daughter for Christmas (7 years old). Turned out to be a HUGE hit with everyone. Our 6 year old son also wanted to play it. Granny played too. The funniest thing was walking into the living room and seeing Dad by himself playing and "getting his groove on" with Hannah. Gave us a good chuckle. We have Guitar Hero for the Wii which I'm used to. I assumed this guitar would be the same size, but it is smaller. It's the perfect size for our daughter who turns 8 in a week. Dad... well he looked a little "delicate" with it :) They love how similar it is to Guitar Hero, I loved hearing something other than hard rock and everyone loved Dad's teeny-bopper attempt.
