 great game, great deal October 12, 2008
packaging and game was like new even though there was a big discount due to the packaging being damaged.
 Without the original developers Guitar Hero is nothing October 12, 2008
Guitar Hero and Guitar Hero II are incredible games, but the original software developer, Harmonix, left the series and started making Rock Band (see Xbox 360 Rock Band Special Edition) instead. Neversoft took over as developer for the Guitar Hero series, starting with this game.
The thing about Harmonix is that the people who started it, as well as almost everyone who works there, are seasoned, professional musicians, and as a company they have been working on music games and interactive music experiences for well over a decade. They know how to make a game like this. Neversoft is made up of traditional video game developers. They were always very good at what they did in the past (Tony Hawk and Spider-Man games), but they know nothing about music, and it shows.
The "charting" (i.e. how the songs were converted into the series of colored "gems" you have to hit when you play the game) in Guitar Hero III is very poor. I doubt that the people who did it have ever played a guitar in their life. There are some songs that are in both Guitar Hero III and Rock Band, and you can find YouTube videos comparing the charts side by side. If you watch these and you have the slightest inkling of how a guitar is actually played, you'll see that the Guitar Hero III charts just don't make any sense at all.
I think the most annoying thing to me was the incessant in-game advertising. Any advertising/sponsorship in Rock Band is either for products that are directly related to professional rock music or for rum (which is still pretty closely related :-) ). Not for Pontiac, or Axe body spray, or Red Bull, or any of the other nonsense in Guitar Hero III. The very last straw for me was when I noticed I was getting BRAND NEW irrelevant in-game ads that it must have gotten from Xbox Live. "Watch Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles!" No thanks, and no thanks to this game.
I bought both this and Xbox 360 Rock Band Special Edition a little before Christmas 2007. I did play them both for a little while, but it became clear pretty quickly, for all the reasons I mentioned above and more, that Rock Band was far and away the superior and more enjoyable game. I still use the guitar I got with this bundle for playing Guitar Hero II wirelessly, but the game itself sits shunned and unused. I hate it so much I won't even sell it, lest I be partially responsible for somebody else playing it.
Buy Rock Band 2 instead.
Great Purchase September 29, 2008
I bought the Guitar Hero 3 Bundle as a gift for my boyfriend's bday. He absolutely loves it. It was a great price and the product works great. A wonderful purchase and I couldn't have been happier with it.
Guitar Hero 3 review September 23, 2008
I've owned the game before only it was the PS2 version. Aside from the ability to download songs it is no different. Game is good fun for anyone of any skill level
As a life long gamer I have to say this is pretty damn fun. September 17, 2008
For a couple of years I've been seeing the Guitar Hero's and the Rockbands populate living rooms, and I just didn't care to try it. I thought it was lame and expensive for the guitar and the game; at least until I finally tried it.
I was at Wal-Mart and had a few minutes while my wife shopped, and I said, "Hell, I'll give it a try." 25 minutes later I was walking out with Guitar Hero III, and two weeks later, a Metallica Death Magnetic album download later, I'm having an absolute ball with this thing.
Even my wife and I got into playing games together and having a good time (I played it on the controller and wife had guitar). Highly recommend and also recommend the Metallica: Death magnetic download. It's definitely the best download for that game, and is pretty much all I have been playing as of late.
As a 28 year old accountant, I say go get it!!! It's awesome!
