Guitar Hero III - PC
« on: January 06, 2008, 01:29:59 AM »
I played guitar hero for the first time tonight on my friend's PS2 and had a lot of fun!

Im not much of a gamer, so I don't think I will be purchasing a gaming system any time soon.. but I was thinking of getting Guitar Hero III for PC. Its about 80 + tax, which includes the guitar (sadly its wired).

Has anyone played it on PC?

What do you think?

Thanks

It's probably the same. But it's a lot of fun on my Wii.
The wired part sucks though.

Don't you have a console?

Get it for the 360, there's more stuff than on Wii.  Don't know for PC.

The only console I own is the PS1, and if I purchased a console I know I wouldnt play it much besides Guitar Hero.. so I don't think its worth it.

I read some reviews and it seems you have to have a really good video card to handle it.. I wish there was a demo I could download to try it out, see how my system handles it...

I dont know which system I would get if I were to get one...

You could try this. Probably not quite as entertaining though.

The guitar that comes with Rock Band sucks cock.  My future brother in law has it and I had to fix it like 2 weeks after he got it

He got it in early December and I was there around XMas so that must be a pretty recent fix

The guitar that comes with GH3 is pretty much perfect.  They could have changed it to add those lower fret buttons, but there's no reason to alter anything else, especially the strum bar.
