My loverboy played this game at his bro's house and had to have it. He went out and bought a PS3 and guitar hero. He has gotten quite good at it but my hand gets cramped. My left hand is not used to really doing anything. Anyway, it is really fun and everyone in the family enjoys it. The only worry we had was using it on our plasma tv. it looked like the guitar image was being burnt into the screen so we decided we should only play it on our old tv.

Well I hav enot really struck up an intrest in any of the guitar hero games until this one. I was pondering on which rhythm game to get, this one or rock band. After extensive research, I have decided on GH3 andI picked it up last night and WOW!!!! I must say "Why did I wait so late"!!??? But the reason why I opted for this now is because there are so many games that focus on violence and nothing original, so it gets kind of boring. Take for example.. every one is talking about GT$. I bet it will be a great game and all , but I have owned all the Grand theft autos and never beat them because they got boring. I guess I am old school..(I have been playing games since 84 but I remember further back) Any way, games like GH# are a breath of fresh air in a world filled with violence. You will really love this game if you love classic rock, and or good rock ballads. Its awesome! I beat it on easy(go ahead and laugh, Im new to GH) so I am going to work my way up the ladder until I get to expert. But If you enjoy great rock and roll, you will love this game.(OBTW take a rest after a few songs, because your hands will cramp up!)

I'm 22 and I like to drink and party with my friends. Whenever they come over to drink a couple of beers and take a couple of shots before we go to the club we always rock out with a couple of tracks from Guitar Hero - ALWAYS! This game is certainly worth the 100 bucks. The music rocks, the levels are challenging and overall game play is just fantastic. I recommend it to everyone with a PS3. Certainly a must own!

I am actually pretty satisfied with this game, I have never purchased a Guitar Hero game before, so this one was my first, and I would say that it has lived up to what it was hyped up to be. One thing that let me down, was the PS3's Les Paul Guitar compatibility with the game Rock Band. Users are able to use the controller for Rock Band on the XBOX 360, but the PS3 does not allow that. Great game overall

Guitar Hero II was my first Guitar Hero, and it was loads of fun, so as you can guess I was looking forward to this new addition to the series. I was worried at first about the change in developer and publisher, but I'm glad to be able to say that the game was not harmed in the transition, and turned out pretty good.
The graphics, while still not groundbreaking, are a giant leap ahead of Guitar Hero II. The physics engine, now powered by Havok, is great. Now the characters hair, or clothing additions like chains sway in the wind, responding to the rocker's movements. The light shows and smoke effects are more epic and awe inspiring than before, too bad you'll be paying too much attention to the notes to truly appreciate it most of the time. All of the characters, guitars, concert venues, and even the crowds, have received a fresh coat of paint and look a bit better. What truly makes everything look better is the increased lighting/particle effects and highly increased amounts of detail put into everything. Its essentially as great looking as it would ever need to be.
The soundtrack has in some ways gotten better, and in others ways gotten worse. What I mean by this is that the song list has become much more main stream. While this can be good in the case of the welcome additions of Guns and Roses, ZZ Top, Tenacious D, Santana, Cream, and Muse, it is rather disappointing in terms of lesser known groups. In fact the only lesser known song I truly enjoyed this time around is Through The Fire and Flames by Dragonforce. I really wish they had another Dethklok song this time around as well, Murmaider would have been an awesome addition. So while the song list is less creative this time around, its still great, and better than Rock Band's in my opinion, although some DLC could easily change this.
The game-play remains essentially the same with some minor tweaks. The first one that comes to mind is battle mode, in which star power is switched out for power ups that make your opponent fail, this is fun and different at first, but it gets old fast. You use this feature in every boss fight and in multi-player if you want. It makes multi-player more competitive, but I prefer to try and make the song sound good rather than make someone else suck at it, but I guess its a nice feature to have. There's unlock-able guitars, songs, and characters again. I didn't find many unlock-able songs that I wanted, but I got them all anyway. The guitars you can unlock are much more imaginative and unique this time around, but the Axe deodorant guitars are just shameful. There's some new unlock-able characters like Slash, and some original characters were taken out, but my personal favorite Grim Ripper is still here in all his glory. The difficulty has stayed the same, but the song choice is much for difficult, anyone who has attempted Raining Blood or Through The Fire and Flames on Hard or Expert can confirm this. I really like the drums idea that Rock Band has brought to the table, and wish Guitar Hero had done the same. Basically, the game-play is rock solid, I just wish the developers did more with it.
It really is a great game and if you're a Guitar Hero or music fan then you'll probably love this. Despite my small issues with the game I still had a lot of enjoyment with it, and still do from time to time.
