Looks nice, but I doubt it will sell well, pro evo addicts won't be trading the controls they have been mastering for years for a new control layout, never going to happen. I tried to play fifa 08 with some friends but even if the game was better they just didn't like it because the controls werent the same.

It probably won't sell too well as people know that a new version is going to be just round the corner when the next season starts.

We need more games like this (and Beats on PSP). I wish Activision would have custom soundtracks in Guitar Hero.. although they would probably lose out on their precious DLC revenue and future sales..

-Spock-

More games with custom soundtracks = yes

Guitar hero/rock band with custom soundtracks = no

Honestly the placing of the notes in guitar hero is what makes the game, I honestly wouldn't think that this is an easy thing to replicate with software or a community driven effort.

must be a childhood disease your boredom

Of course, if I don't like repetitive and pedantic platforming I miust be crazy? /sigh

SMG is the same as Mario 64 which I found boring 10 years ago.

Pedantic platforming? Care to explain what you mean? And how do you know it is repetative, pedantic and just like Mario64 after playing it for 3 or 4 minutes? Judging and dismissing a world class game after 5 minutes playtime IS crazy, finding SMG boring after a couple of hours isn't. See the difference?

Obviously people do not understand what is getting done with these discs than. There is absolutely no new programming that is required. All that is happening is that the music is being re-encoded properly and than the disc is being "re-pressed" (re-burnt) with the same source code and the proper audio files. No programming changes, therefore no possiblility of anything getting messed up.

I am pretty sure that they will have to add in the surround sound menu that they described in the manual and they haven't expressly stated that they are not going to have to tweak other things in the programming.

To be honest I am a little less than trusting considering that:

1)The Guitar Hero 3 box has Dolby Pro logic on it and the game is outputting in mono = my trust is shot

2)It took them a month to admit this, even though they must have known even before they shipped to stores

3)They took out the sound menu that is mentioned in the manual, suggesting to my distrusting mind that they had a technical issue with the sound -before- they pressed the discs and didn't have time to fix it (but had time to alter the menu's). This would indicate that the problem wasn't purely failure to press the correct audiofiles and thus may neccesitate changes to the programming.
