 Suprised me November 14, 2007

I had heard about GH3, but really didn't think it was for me. After happening by a display in the store, and spending about 15 minutes playing Pat Benetar's Hit me with your best shot, we bought it. The wife and I love it, we are getting another guitar to play co-op/battle. Looks like the 80's disc has a better soundtrack though... Will be picking that up for christmas.
 Wireless Controller Sucks! Never order from Red Octane's site!! November 13, 2007
5 out of 7 found this review helpful
First of all, the game itself is not as good as the previous GH games. I don't like the look of the new screen. The star power meter is not as easy to see and the words flashing "50 note streak", "100 note streak" are very distracting. But most of all, the Kramer wireless controller is awful! It looks cool, but doesn't work half the time. It is much slower than a corded controller and not all the buttons always work leading to lots of mess-ups and poor scores. When I first got mine the red button didn't work, however it magically started working but now the green button occasoinally goes out. I tried to send it back but RED OCTANE has been Very Very slow to respond to my requests, I will NEVER order anything from them again. Their customer service is HORRIBLE!!
Awesome Game, NO WIRES November 8, 2007

I'm not sure why some people were having trouble with the wireless guitar. I hooked mine up and jumped right in. The guitar connected immediately, and I have had no lag problems at all. I would definetly reccomend this to others. The wireless factor is a major bonus for me, and the fact that I didn't have any problems setting it up makes it a no brainer for beginners.
As good as the others November 5, 2007

I have played GH 1 and 2 extensively, but this is the first one that I own, and it is right up there with the first two: good game play and controls, and the songs are a decent mix (some bad, some really good). The challenges against Slash and Tom Morello are very cool, and the customization of your character is fun.
I bought the PS2 game bundled with a guitar, but it came with the SG Red Classic from GH2 and not the black Fender style.
Disappointing compared to GH II November 5, 2007

I had to return the GH III bundle I bought because the yellow and orange frets did not work at all. I just thought that I had bad luck and got a bad apple in the bunch. So, I was happy that all of the buttons on the second guitar worked. That is, until a few minutes into the game, the neck popped out a little bit from the body of the guitar and none of the buttons worked. In fact, I couldn't figure out why the buttons wouldn't work for a while. Anyway, after fixing that by popping it back in, I played for about an hour. Tilting the guitar to set off star power doesn't work! I had to shake violently and even then, it would only set off star power intermittently.
Not crazy about the set list. But I guess opinions can differ on that. But the pop-up note streak thing (i.e. the pop up that indicates that you have hit a 50-note streak, 100-note streak, etc.) is more distracting than helpful.
The battles with the "bosses" are really stupid. My addiction to the game is largely due to the fact that you get to listen to great music while you play a game. But these stupid battles made the game...childish. And it's just frustrating to have to waste my time on something that doesn't really require GH skills.
Anyway, the main burn for me is that the wireless guitar that comes with the bundle is AWFUL. AWFUL. I'm going to try to return the whole thing tomorrow.
