The First Negative Review for Guitar Hero III
For someone who almost lost his job playing the original Guitar Hero day and night, this installment of the franchise has been a major disappointment. I’m gonna make it short because right now I still could not believe I paid $100 for this piece of crap of a game.
- The song selection. The sub-title of the game is “Legends of Rock.” The song list is laughable. Some of the bands…never even heard of. The game becomes increasingly difficult very quickly. I’m playing this game on Medium…and I’m telling you this is HARD. There’s no way a casual user can finish that battle with Lou on MEDIUM on less than TEN TRIES.
- Graphics suck. I’m not a graphics whore…but there’s just no reason for these developers NOT to go 1080p with those simplistic polygonal characters.
- The Guitar controller suck. There’s always a delay no matter how many times you calibrate it; the tilt is overly sensitive. It gets VERY ANNOYING when doing battles…you will find yourself screaming “OMGWTFBBQ!! I DID NOT WANT TO EXECUTE THAT BATTLE ATTACK YET!”
- Sound. It’s not on all songs…but sometimes there’s no STRUM SOUND! WHAT THE HELL?
- It’s TOO EXPENSIVE. OK, so they made the thing wireless. BFD. It’s not even Bluetooth on the PS3; you have to use some stupid dongle…and they packed AA batteries instead of rechargeables…what a bunch of cheap bastards. Compare this with Rock Band that will sell for about $160. Yeah, I know…HUGE RIP-OFF.
I’m so glad I pre-ordered Rock Band. I should have never bought this game.
Score: 4 out of 10.
