Yeah sure the price is a little too high but it is still a good game. I was a little disappointed with the lack of characters(no Casey Lynch, no Clive Winston, no Lars Umlaut, and no black guy with an afro) and that there were no extra outfits that you could buy. I thought that the song list was really good, I knew about half the songs that were on it and they are all fun songs. They kept all of the buy-able guitars and finishes but there was only one un-lockable character that you could get which was Grim Ripper who has some nice 3-D glasses and a huge clock around his neck. The graphics were the same and everything had a different color to it(different from GH2) since it was the 80's but the singer, the bass player, and the drummer were not 80's out at all. They were the same as they were in GH2. Since there are only 30 songs, they get harder quicker and by the 10th song(Because, it's Midnite) the solos get ridiculously hard. The bottom line is if you like Guitar Hero and/or if you like the 80's play list, you'll like this game.
