 Rockin' not shockin'! February 2, 2008

This arrived 2 days after I ordered it.
And to make deadly clear
***THIS COMES WITH THE KRAMER WIRELESS GUITAR***
Not too good to be true, as I was slightly expecting.
My 2nd best buy of 2007!
 Amazing wireless guitar - terrible songs! January 14, 2008

Ok so the Kramer guitar is fantastic but whats the point when the songs are that bad!!! I know these guys have got to cater for all musical genres but if as called "guitar hero" you would have thought they would base the songs around guitar riffs rather than popular songs that some spotty teenager thinks is cool. So I may be a bit harsh and there are some good songs on there, Black Sabbath, Slayer & Dragonforce but its got songs like Kaiser Chiefs on it for christ's sake! And when they pick a band they don't pick their best guitar based songs, they pick the popular songs! Sorry rant over, enjoy!
Slightly disappointing January 7, 2008

Guitar Hero one and two set the stage for some great fun rock outs. Even the cheesy songs were a joy to play and it even encouraged me to seek out some of the songs that I didn't know just by hearing them here first. Therefore I was quite excited by the imminent release of this. Indeed it has been polished sufficiently so that graphically the game looks a lot smarter. The sound has also been improved.
The only problem is that there are only about 5 good songs on it unless you happen to like thrash metal rather a lot. I kept waiting for the stonkers to show up but they just don't. I was sorely disappointed, especially as they lied about Bloc Party being on there when they aren't. A missed oppurunity which needs to be rectified with the next release. Where are the more classic bands? No Doors, Pink Floyd, Velvet Underground or Creedence Clearwater Revival etc which would have given us greater variety.
It's still good fun but once you've completed it there is very little motivation to play it again as towards the end the songs are offensively awful to endure. Shame but worth buying for a bit of a giggle but number 2 beats this one hands down, even with the worse graphics.
Yes it does come with a 'Kramer' wireless guitar controller! January 5, 2008

This package does include a black 'Kramer' wireless guitar controller. In my opinion it is a good quality guitar controller.
The box includes:
Guitar Hero III Game
Wireless Kramer Controller
Adjustable Strap
Sticker Sheet
2 AA Batteries
I found that the controller also works with Guitar Hero II.
I think it must just be me... December 30, 2007

Once again, the GH team seem to have pulled a brilliant compillation of songs out of the hat. I wish genuine album compilers would be as intuitive. Even the songs I don't know (and there are as many as the ones I do,) I can't help but find them all catchy. And therein lies my problem and I know it's just me 'cos nobody else has complained about it.
I can't play this game. I don't know why, I don't have a problem with GH2 but with this game my timing is awful, even on level 1 (and for the metal heads who find the whole range easy, yes I know, shocking isn't it, just get over yourself and go get some fresh air. There's a whole world outside that dark hole you call a bedroom.). Other than that, it's still a great idea and great fun and, if you can do what I can't, you'll discover some excellent songs and some well observed aphorisms. Ah well, let's see what happens if I try it behind by head...
