After playing the other games within the Guitar Hero brand and becoming pretty good at playing it on the Guitar Hero controller, I had to buy the new game when it came out, otherwise it's just pretty much of a waste of this new skill I'd acquired! The game lived up to it's expectations that I had of it and definitely has made some improvements from the previous in the series with even more great song titles to pick from. The game was around £25 when I bought it, but this was simply down to the fact that the fancy PS3 didn't exist! Now however, you can buy it for around £15 from Amazon or cheaper preowned at a GAME store. It's rated at a 12 due to the fact that ...  Read the complete review

Guitar Hero 3 is a great addition to the Guitar Hero series. It features some great songs by awesome artists and introduces a few new features to keep boredom from your doorstep. You all know the story about Guitar Hero now, big Guitar Shaped controller, press coloured buttons and strum as they appear on screen. Encores from the Guitar Hero 2 are back and better than ever, included are songs such Paint It Black by the Stones or Welcome To The Jungle by Guns N Roses. However the catch is before you can play these songs you must beat the guitarist in a head to head battle. These are some of the funnest parts of Guitar Heros 3 and require quick reactions and some ...  Read the complete review

I've always wanted to play guitar and gone so far as buying a guitar and having a few lessons. However, I wanted to be able to play real songs and my fingers just wouldn't do what the brain was telling them so it just fizzed out. My dreams of playing guitar still linger...so when I was given Guitar Hero as a Christmas present I was pretty excited. Once I'd pieced together the guitar (easy) and loaded the game it was straightforward to actually get into some playing. I started off with some training just to get the gist of things and I'd definitely recommend that you try at least the basic lessons before you start for real. Once you choose to start ...  Read the complete review

I dont even know where to begin with Guitar Hero, I remember some times in the year of 2008, early 2008 i popped up a friend and he introduced me to guitar hero... i was shocked by the game i know id heard of it and not being much of a rocker i didnt think id be to interested in the game but i was surprised with this game you dont need to be into rock music or playing the guitar its addictive as you try your hardest to get from beginner to expert and trust me its not easy. after playing that i HAD to buy it. and i wasnt even fond of alot of the songs but i found myself singing along as i rocked out in my bedroom alone or with friends. it ...  Read the complete review

My favourite ps2 game ever! Upon buying this, we instantly became more "Rock" than we had ever been before, getting up off the sofa to strut about and in doing so, miss a lot of notes. But what a game! what a concept! pretty much every guitarist I know has come out with the line "It doesn't make you any better at REAL guitar you know!" yeah, we know. But it's a hell of a lot easier, as we all tried to play guitar, and then gave up when our fingertips starting bleeding. However, I digress, the game. It has a large number of very cool songs on it, my favourites including "black magic woman", "Cliffs of Dover" and the hilarious ...  Read the complete review
