It would be wrong not to get Guitar Hero III unless you are a begginer and are just starting to play as this is tough.
Harmonix left for Rock Band and that left Neversoft to create a new Guitar Hero game. They got the hang of it quickly, and they probably thought everyone else would too, but since it's the first time on a Nintendo platform, that would be an exeption.
This is still Guitar Hero. You are still rocking on the Guitars, just this time, it's wireless. You are still trying to rock on five fret buttons. It is just another Guitar Hero game, except Neversoft created it this time.
The tracklist is pretty good. This is without a doubt, the best tracklist in a Guitar Hero game so far. The game is amazing if you are having a party. But still, the game is extremly tough, especially for begginers. Some of the songs just feel like random notes placed and then called a song. That's not the story, but it comes pretty close. The game also uses a heavy dose of in-game advertising. As if Need for Speed wasn't enough, now it's in a guitar game? You people are despret.
The multiplayer is ok. They tried to make it feel like you're playing against someone. Good job, these are quick too! Most matches end in about thirty seconds since the other person can't keep up because of these attacks. The attacks will do stuff like cut a string, raise the difficulty, and other stuff like that. It's a neat idea, but it doesn't always work right because of the calibration.
The game still comes with online play, same for the Wii. The connectivity works pretty good overall, but we've still experience some problems with it. You are also still playing against the person, so there is no peace.
The Wii is probably the most intresting one because of the Wii remote's potential. You plug it in to the guitar and when you miss a note, the little noise comes out of the Wii remote plus it rumbles, which helps improve gameplay.
When you put it all together, it's just another guitar hero game, but you are all turned against each other, so there isn't much cooperate gameplay. It is a pretty good sequal if you've played it before, but this is not reccomended for first time players to the Guitar Hero series.
