Shivers me timbers and call me DIY! I just bought a Guitar Hero controller yesterday and now the boys at Giz’ are saying that Guitar Hero 4’s controller will have additional fret-button-thingies. Sheesh. The case for this new accusation? A GH promo page shows an expanded drum kit and additional frets on the guitar. This could really make modding the controller interesting come later this year…

That’s a “slide” area. There are some sections in a song that’ll have notes that are really close together, kind of like hammer-ons and pull-offs, where you can just put your finger(s) on that area and slide between notes without strumming. Saw it in a trailer at Wal-Mart.

It’s also used for tapping long streams of notes. This video on Youtube shows you.
