Guitar Hero 3...

[Newby]

is awesome.

[BigAznDaddy]

wait was your mom playing GT2 or 3 yesterday?

[Newby]

GH3.

[Hitmen]

There are some problems with it though, some of which are specific to the PS2 version which I have. There is noticeable graphical lag in some parts, the menus and save times are reaaaally slow, some of the note charts seem to go in and out of sync, the graphics are terrible (worse than GH2). The only problem I have with the game in gerenal is a lot of the note charts on expert were made harder for the sake of being harder, rather than being true to the song. While the increased difficulty is nice, it makes playing some songs boring as hell.

That said, I still <3 it.

I notice the graphical lag. I'm confused as to how more notes makes the songs boring. :p

I think this calls for an xkcd reference:

It's not 'more notes', it's stupidly placed notes, 3 note chords in places it doesn't make sense, and lots of chord changes that seem very poorly planned it general. After playing on expert through gh1, gh2, and 80s, I can tell really well thought out ones from bad ones. When the chart is good, even if you suck at it you feel like you are playing the song. A lot of the songs in this just don't have that. On the other hand, some of them are really good, like One and Paranoid for example.

This is more true than you could imagine. The song Cult of Personality by Living Color was actually rerecorded for this game. They got the permission to use the original master, but it couldn't be found, so the band rerecorded it with a stupidly hard new guitar solo.

Got it for Wii. Playing on Wiimote is rather interesting. But the wiimote addition to the guitar adds a nice touch (vibrations and sounds).

[Hitmen]

The dragonforce song WILL DIE SOON. I can make it to 83% on expert. Sooo close.

Did anyone see the south park episode about GH?

Classic.

Did anyone see the south park episode about GH?

Classic.

Yeah, and it's officially my all-time favorite South Park episode.

Apparently our drummer did the drum track for The Devil Went Down to Georgia, and all of the songs came out of our producer's studio.

so I went over to newbies house yesterday and played GH3 and i got my ass beat by his mom as well as him. I blow at GH

[deadly7]

This game does NOT deserve the title "Legends of Rock".

[leet_muffin]

So, I can play Raining Blood through and through perfectly on guitar. However, Guitar Hero, I couldn't get through the intro on easy. Hrm.
