Are you ready to rock? (Like a Hurricane) (Guitar Hero)

Post by Chardok »

I got mine preordered, do you?

I'm totally going to paint black swirls on my GH Controller. ZAKK WYLDE LES PAUL, BABY! YEAH!

Also: Did you get a gander at that tracklist? I'm going to be rocking and rolling all night. Then I'm gonna party every day.

10/28 COMETH!

Bloody Americans, we have to wait till 7/11. Bah!

And bloody Rock Band and their bloody 'oh noes we can't make teh guitars fast enough make the whole world wait till Feburary' bloody nonsense. I need guitar action.

PS, when GH3 comes out and there's still no way to play gh1/gh2 songs other than 'lol restart 360 lol change disk', it's going to piss me off.

I may get it if I have enough money after rent on payday. Otherwise it'll have to wait until the middle of November. :(

Arggh. I don't know how I'm going to get it. I've got no money, and my sister keeps hogging the 360, so I'm probably going to get it for the PC, but that has complications of its own involved.

Best preview Buzz review RE: GHIII Ever!

(Seen on Gamestop.com)
i've seen the leaked tracklist and watched all of the vids on youtube of this game and i have to say WOW! its like they took GH and GH2, soaked them in awesomeness, let them simmer in liquid amazement for 6 hours and served them on a plate of solid gold.
Gold, brothers. Gold.

PC version?

I have the original for PS2 but my guitar is pretty buggered, the whammy bar doesn't function at all. I can't decide which version to get between Wii or 360. I never bought 2, and there are some songs from that I would like but I don't really want to buy them from Xbox Live and they don't sell 2 without the guitar for the 360.

You want the Wii version. There will be DLC soon (Just not at release) and you get to have nifty fretsqueaks and twangs of your mistakes emanate from the guitar itself (By clipping your Wiimote into the body of the Les Paul) It's going to be chock full of win!

Not that the 360 version is necessarily better or worse, just different. Plus, you'll save 10 bucks on the Wii version.
