Hey everyone...never owned a copy of Guitar Hero before, but my wife loved playing it with her kid-cousins and I think she'd really like to have a copy. My question is...how bad are the "problems" with the PS3 version? I've heard complaints about a lag issue due to the non-Bluetooth wireless. Can anybody comment on this? Is it not playable? Should I wait for the next version of the wireless guitar? Should I be considering the Wii version instead?

Your comments are really appreciated, thanks in advance!

The problem is not the game, the problem are HDTV's. But it's not that serious, you'll just need to mess around a little bit with the calibration and everything will be fine. If you have an SDTV like I do, you won't notice anything.

I haven't had any problems with it personally. Good luck on getting the Wii version.... anyone hear about the man who sold the Wii Guitar Hero III for the equivalent of $9600 US? Incredible. The person who bought it (if it was a person, easily could be an Ebay, Activision, or Wii publicity stunt IMO) could have just bought the other systems and bought Guitar Hero on that.

I, too, have not had any problems with the PS3 Guitar Hero III...I personally think it's a better buy right now than the Wii, mainly because of the Downloadable content and stereo sound (the Wii version was shipped in Mono...not sure if that's been fixed yet or not).

Whichever one you get, though, good luck and have fun!

Other then the fact I suck at it, I haven't noticed any problems with my copy.
