There is no better guitar game than this...
To start off,Guitar Hero III looks just like previous games,it has the same type of menu and it also sound a lot like previous games.It feels like a Guitar Hero game. Think that is a pretty good thing as the game is recognisable and fans of the games will be familiar to the game.
There are a few modes in the game.They are Career,Quick Play,Co-op Career and probably the most interesting one ,Battle Mode.
The Career Mode is just like before.You play a number of gigs at a location in order to get to a bigger and better one.You start by playing in a small parking lot and in the end you get to play in big stadiums.The whole experience is pretty well presented and the short cinematic sequences are funny for most of the time.In your career you will play against big and well-known guitar heroes and legends like Tom Morello or Slash.This will happen in Battle Mode.Battle Mode is a pretty simple idea,you have to play some notes and when you hit the special ones you have to tilt your guitar in order to make your opponent miss.This works well most of the time but the whole idea is pretty stupid and get's annoying.
The multiplayer is very good.Two players can play on the same screen or you can play online.The modes are the same as in singleplayer.The lag is almost non-existent.
The most important thing about the game is it's songs.The songs are fun to play,most of them,but they are not ver varied and there a few know songs.At least all songs are master tracks and not just covers.
Overall Guitar Hero III is a good game ,with some improvements but not necessarily a starting point for newcomers.The songs are good,the game looks good and sounds good as well,so if you're a Guitar Hero fan you have no reason not to get this game.
My Score: 8.7
