The clerk at Gamestop looked at me with this look on his face like I just kicked his dog, he couldn't believe it. I gave him my reasons in this order:
1) Set list sucks (i.e. AFI, The Killers, Sex Pistols, Sonic Youth, Pat Benetar, Weezer, Dead Kennedys, Slipknot, Eric "Elevator Music" Johnson, Muse, and all of the bonus songs excluding Fall of Troy). These songs just do not transition well to a guitar game. These songs mostly consist of chords and no solos. Eric Johnson's song is fun to play, but the song sucks and I don't know how that song is in the same bracket as Slayer, Iron Maiden, and Metallica.
2) The Difficulty: I completed all of the songs on expert no problem except Reigning Blood. This song just pisses me off to no end. I don't even want to know how hard the end boss battle is.
3) The songs are only going to get worse: I downloaded the Foo Fighters and Velvet Revolver song packs and I wasn't impressed at all. I think the Foo Fighters are an awesome band, but I didn't enjoy these songs as much as I enjoyed Monkey Wrench on the last GH. As for Velvet Revolver, just try and play the song Messages without pausing the game and smashing your head through a wall.
This is just my opinion, hopefully another smart person has done the same thing or is fed up with GH3 and is waiting for Tuesday to come. Post your gripes with GH here.
Everybody has that favorite band that nobody has heard of, until they make a CD that everybody likes. This is GH situation is kind of like that to me. GH sold me down the river, but thats ok because GH creator is brewing up a little something called rock band.
