Dope game... but insane hard October 11, 2008 This game is probably one of my all time favorites. The only thing i have a problem with is that once you get to hard mode on like the second to last set, it's ridiculous. Not that big of a deal if your a person who likes a challenge but expect to play 3&7s like a million times over before you beat it.
Other than that the game is amazing, ROCK ON!! Cant wait for world tour.
Innovative, But Why So Many Cover Songs October 7, 2008 Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock is a very innovative game like the other Guitar Hero's, which makes a sedentary hobby of video gaming a little more active and also can inspire an interest in learning to actually play a guitar. I waited awhile and finally gave in and have to say I was impressed.
The guitar is top notch and the interaction with the onscreen action is seamless. There is a significant learning curve that can only be lessened by frequent play. This is not a pick up, play for a few hours, go a week without playing, then come back and expect to be any good type of game. The best advice is to play a little every day/night and get 5 stars on easy on every song before moving to Medium. Each subsequent difficulty level adds speed and more note buttons.
The song list is pretty solid, but in many ways it is disappointing that many are only covers and not originals. In fact, most of the best songs are covers. Sure the cover bands sound like the original artists but I often wondered why no pony up for the original tracks. I hope this is a flaw corrected in the new GH game coming out. I saw "As Made Famous By" way too many times.
Likewise, the song list in the in-game store is basically a bunch of never heard of groups, with the exception of Bret Michaels. Needless to say, I haven't bought much of the in-game store songs. I do understand the PSN store has some good tracks though.
All in all, it is a fun diversion from using a gamepad and brings back old school button mashing speed and coordination. Also, it is fun with groups of people taking turns trying to be a rock god.
Love this game :) September 5, 2008 Avid guitar hero player :) I have 2, 3, and aerosmith! soon to have 4!
love this series
