So we all know that you love your favorite motion controlling console, The Wii. But we also know that with said console comes a few things that are problematic about it *cough*ONLINE PLAY*cough*. But it seems that developers Vicarious Visions and Activision are pushing the envevelope with a couple new additions to Guitar Hero 5.

Hate friend codes? Guitar Hero 5 will use your universal wii code. That means that you should probably get to adding all your friends to your address book now.

Got a spare DS? The new GH5 is supposrting a cool co-op/competitive mode allowing people to connect their DS for a mode known as "Roadie Battle".

8 player online. Thats right, we're talking complete support for online games via wi-fi. They are also including a party play mode which lets players drop in and out at will with ANY combo of instuments.

In the graphics department the game will see a full detail overhaul hopefully to your liking, including new lighting effects and smoother movement for characters.

Don't forget to pick up your copy September 1st for US, September 16th for AU, and September 18th for EU. For more new and all there is to know about the Wii be sure to check out RockerLP every Friday at 1pm Eastern (6pm GMT) for Project Wiiport!
