A great sequel to a Revolution.

Advantages: Great sound and graphics, Great online, Downloadable content, Fantastic idea, lovely controller
Disadvantages: Some people may not be interested in this type of music,

...of a game using a guitar controller, playing some of the worlds favorite songs, has brought to us many versions of this game (including World Tour and Guitar hero 5) but, i find this to be my favorite yet! No game was ever bought out like this before, the idea was fantastic! Many people fell in love with this game at first sight. PLAYING: Very easy to use. Starting the game, and beginning a career profile couldn't be quicker! The difficulties can ...
...great feature of this particular guitar hero is the way it looks. I have played on Guitar Hero World Tour and found the layout of that to be very horrid! It was very dark and boring, and looked rather "tacky". But Guitar Hero 5 has a nice "warming" feel to it, and you can get rather attached to it. It's very easy to see what to do, with easy instructions of what to press, to get to where you want to on the game. GUITAR CONTROLLER: The guitar controller ...

An excellent game, best played on PS3 or Xbox 360

Advantages: Challenging, good 2 player fun, online play, downloadable content
Disadvantages: lacks the entire band feel of rock band, downloads are a bit pricy

...assume that everyone knows what guitar hero is, since this is now the 4th installment in the series (if we also include the Guitar Hero: Rock's the 80s game). For those that dont, you have to press the correct fret buttons down with your left hand, and strum the strum bar with your right hand at the right time. Pretty simple.

Hammer Ons and Pull Offs (HO-POs) HO-POs can be identified by the notes with white circles around them - this allows the player to play the note without strumming, ie just by tapping the right fret with the left hand. These have been made significantly easier in GH3 than the other games, and the window seems ...

Guitar Hero III PS3 - The low down.

Advantages: Wireless Guitar! Great Party game, Good variety of songs.
Disadvantages: Battle Concept, Difficulty settings vary too much, several poor song choices.

...the game''' === In Guitar Hero III your band battles guitar icons Tom Morello and Slash in a journey to become rock legends. The story follows you as you progress from a garage band to a supporting act, then to your first head lining gig before you set out on a world tour and so on. Guitar Hero III is a fun challenging game where the concept is to press the right coloured buttons (or notes) whilst at the same time strumming. You have to do this ...
...is you have a replica guitar to play on! ( a Les Paul for the PS3). It even comes with a working Wammy Bar! Whilst you are playing a song the Rock Metre indicates how well you are doing: Green being great! Yellow okish and Red being poor: your seconds from being kicked off the stage! The idea is to stay in the green by hitting as many notes as you can to increase your multiplier. Filling your Star Power Metre will give you Star power (activated with ...

GEETAR HERO!

Advantages: Great party game, lots of songs to play
Disadvantages: with rock band out, it feels a bit dated.

...worry no more because with guitar hero III you can become just that. There are roughly 70 tracks to master, 50 odd of these are packed onto the games disc and the other tracks are additional downloads, some for free and some are pay to play. featured artists include Dragon Force, Slipknot, Sex Pistols, metallica, the Rolling Stones and much much more. The biggest feature of the game is the officially licensed les Paul replica controller that comes ...

The fun really kicks in when a friend plays alongside with an additional controller and you play your way through either random songs picked from the setlist or the equally fun co-op career mode. This game even supports online play where you can play against players from all over the world in an array of different ...

Guitar Hero 3

Advantages: Downloading your favourite tracks
Disadvantages: Harder levels are almost impossible!

Guitar Hero 3 is a very interesting game. The aim is to become a world class Guitar Player by playing well-known songs on the hand-held guitar that comes with the game. You begin as a rookie, where you are taught the buttons to press, which co-ordinate with the musical notes that appear on screen, in a similar style to the way a dance mat works. It is initially quite complicated, as you have to "train" your fingers to hit the correct buttons on ...
...will fail miserably the first few times and get "boo'ed" off stage! But don't worry, you're mind seems to pick these things up amazingly well and soon enough you'll complete your first song, hitting the correct notes at the correct time. Then there's no stoppin' your rockin'! There are various skill levels, and in leach level, you are given gradually more difficult songs, making the learning curve quite gradual. I found this game brilliant, it ...

Hours of fun on guitar Hero.

Advantages: Plenty of songs, wireless controller, massive longevity, great multiplayer.
Disadvantages: If you wish to play against friend you need another guitar.

Guitar hero is a bit more pricey than regular games. I purchased my copy for £55 when it first came out. Since you also receive a guitar controller it is well worth it. In my opinion this game provides massive playability, as you will find yourself striving to improve and complete the songs on harder difficultys. There is a wide range of songs, which increases as you progress through the career and earn money to buy bonus tracks which are just as ...
...and family then you will probably want to buy another guitar controller. These aren't too expensive. The multiplayer mode provides a lot of fun. I think that if you are looking for a game that you can continue to play over and over then this is a must buy. ...

Quick review of Guitar Hero 3 (PS3)

Very good game just not value for money though. Very good online play and can be found quite cheaply in some places (eg game and gamestation). Covers for guitars which you can buy are a waste of money in my opinion. Good for storage with a neck you can take of. COntroller does not work on guitar hero ii though! Overall it is ok. ...

Guitar Hero 3

Advantages: Gameplay, Online, Account Linking
Disadvantages: None

...fun. This is the first Guitar Hero game that I have purchased so I wan't used to how you play it. After about 30 minutes of practising and going through the built in tutorials I could play a song (on easy mode) with only a few mistakes. If you don't mind a couple of minutes trying new things out then it is a good game to play. After you have done the easy mode using 3 of the five buttons on the guitar it adds a forth button in to the mix. Once you ...
...and you have never played Guitar Hero before, bewfore you buy it remember that it does take some time to get used to how to play it and that you won't get 100% on every song. So after you have beared everything in mind I think that you will find this an excelent game. The game website has a feature where you can link up your game account to the Guitar Hero website where you can share your stats, create tour groups and see what scores your friends ...

Rawk out in Guitar Hero.

Advantages: Unbelievable atmosphere.
Disadvantages: Trousers can rip when doing powerslides.

...in search for the best guitar hero wich is obviously me. Its online can sometimes run slow but winning a guitar battle against someone you don't know feels like you've just won battle of the bands as it does in co-op mode completing a hard-core song. The Graphics aren't great but its made up for by the live sounding sound making your blood pump with a beat. Downsides to this game are the times when you powerslide and your trousers rip, but by golly ...
