  Guitar Hero III rocks the PS2

Graphics - 8/10
For what the game is, you are not buying this game to play for the graphics – though Activision was able to make the animations more vibrant, and a more noticeable experience.

Sound – 10/10
The track list for this game, along with the original recordings (including the reunited Sex Pistols!) is a must have. You will get lost in involvement when playing this game. This is one of the best soundtracks in a game to date.

Gameplay – 9/10
Though under new “ownership”, Activision has taken this game this game down a similar road, but with a new car. With slight improvements in the display hud, the notifications of streaks, and the “star power” activators easier to get, this game is fun. Plain and simple.

Replay Value - 10/10
It will hard not to play this game over and over. This is a worthy sequel.

Overall - 9/10
There are a few new tweaks to the actual gameplay, and it feels a bit easier to play (except some of the very final songs), but this game follows the old saying “if it ain’t broke – don’t fix it”. The song list, along with the new guitar, is stellar. With all the original, or master, tracks that are in this game, it is hard not to enjoy this game if you are a fan of rhythm or music games.

The new wireless “Gibson” guitar is heavier, more durable, and the closest thing to a real guitar peripheral that I have felt. I must say that this is a nice controller, and I did not want to put it down. I applaud Activision’s attention to detail. I highly recommend this bundle.

  Guitar Hero 3 rocks Playstation 2

Overall this game receives about a 6/10. Let's break it down...

Graphics - 6/10
Come on...I can see bumpers smashing in racing games, more blood than I care to see in shooter games, and even chocolate bubbling in the pond in a children's game... and I can't get better graphics than this for my favorite XBox 360 game? Better luck on Guitar Hero 4. The one improvement I have enjoyed is the better display hud (your score).

Sound – 10/10
Some of the songs aren't the greatest sound quality (like Boston) but the sound is as good as Guitar Hero predecessors. Overall the track list was top notch. I'd love to see some more popular songs for some of my less savvy classic rock friends, but overall the music is great and will keep you rocking all night long.

Overall - 9/10
Judging this game against Guitar Hero 1 and 2, it is a better game and worthy of a sequel. However, judging it against the new Rock Band... it loses some appeal because Rock Band offers more options for more people (mic and drums). If you're looking for a game that will give you awesome songs, lots of fun for all skill levels, and a 4-player mode, you should go with Rock Band. (note: the Rock Band guitar sucks so you'll want to use a Guitar Hero guitar)

The new wireless Gibson guitar that comes in the Guitar Hero 3 package is a must have. It's a little easier to hold than previous guitars, I think the buttons are slightly easier to use, and although I thought being wireless might affect some play I can't notice any lag or difficulties.

Excellent game... looking forward to a sequel.

  GH III PS2 Bundle - Wireless Kramer Controller x2
Review created: 08/20/08(updated 08/20/08)

While I'm an advid video gamer, most games no longer thrill me. When I first played GH, I was hooked. Hooked for a long while. That was about a year ago, and I played GH 2. Now you would think that an updated version of the game would be a lot more fun, but sadly that is not the case for GH 3. The graphics on GH3 are horrible. They look very dull and aren't as sharp as GH2, or GH1 for that matter. Good song titles from the old axe masters, however, due to the crappy graphics, I was not able to 'dive in', so to speak. I know this is due mostly because the game was designed for better consoles (PS3, XBOX360* .......Wii...) It does not have that same "Yeah! I'm rocking out with a plastic guitar!?!!" feel as the previous ones. But enough of the game and onto the axes...

The Kramer Striker wireless guitars look very sleek. They are eye pleasing. The fact that the neck is detacheable is a plus. However, the quality has somewhat let me down a bit. On one guitar, the neck was kinda loose, not by a lot, but still annoying, and on the other guitar, the whammy bar was loose. Loose enough to move on its own. When 2 guitars are 'plugged in' (you plug in the wireless receiver into the console) its a pain. You'd think that the first guitar to be turned on and connect would be 1st player. This is not the case here. The guitar will start functioning, yet it somehow connected to the player 2 port, first. I try switching the receivers, and that seemed to work, until the next time I try to connect again. I now leave just one receiver plugged in. Also, the guitars have a range of about 30' (feet); not bad at all! Now I'm not sure if its the fact that I have not played in a long while, but there seems to be a bit of 'lag'. I never experienced that with the wired version. Then again it could be just me, who knows.

The bundle also included 2 sheets of stickers, along with a keychain (which I use :), 4 DURACELL batteries (Wow, DURACELL! Not some crappy unknown brand!), and 2 gig bags to put your guitars in. Very useful if you like to visit a friend just to whoop his/her butt at GH. Oh, I almost forgot the 2 straps!

Packaging was done well. Not a single scratch, dent, or missing piece.

All in all, the guitars are good. I like them, and I think you will like them too. I disliked GH3 very much though, but thats just me. You will get a lot of eye strain from GH3 if played in the PS2. This is from someone who owns a 32" LCD. And no, the game does not support HDTV format. At least not on the PS2. I guess I should mention that I only got this bundle, mainly for the 2 guitars.

My Rating: From 1 ~ 10

GH3: 4*
Guitars: 7*
Extras: 8*

I hope this rating was fair. I will admit that I was mostly ranting about how awful GH3 is (to me). Again, the guitars are pretty darn cool. They are wireless which reduces clutter. With a 30' (feet) range, hey you can't go wrong! Remember the extras too!

I bought this product because my 11yr old son wanted it for his birthday. The whole family has enjoyed it and it's been a great hit at parties! The wireless guitar has been great! It picks up from quite a bit away from the unit. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone who likes rock and roll!

Guitar Hero III has the best selection of songs and the wireless guitar is the only way to go. The graphics are good and if you become good, you can unlock some pretty cool rock icons that can jam along with you.

Frustration and sadness.
The seller never sent the item,
for which money were taken on JUly 23, 2008.
Today is August 5, 2008.
Yesterday I received 2 e-mails from the seler "Hello, there" if you not pay and blah,blah we will report you and collect you , and remove you ..." All the transactions ,indicate the payment was completed, my bank account shows- money gone , bye,bye.
The website was offered for me to pay, but different from the official ebay site, is it scam, spoof or fraud?
It is impossible to hide anyhting nowdays. So, what seller is hoping to achieve, hard to say,item was never shipped , doubt it will be received now, when I am leaving for vacation in 2 days
In contrary, it is predictible what buyer will do, me - I will makw it public, that it is not safe to deal with Ebay or PayPal, I will contact consumer affaisrs and Fox news, and channel 5. And, of course, how could I forget. You just lost an excellent customer with inmpeccable reputation for years

  A FREE IPOD TOUCH OR CASH
Review created: 08/01/08

Just take 2 minutes and read this. This is very EASY to do! It literally takes 10 minutes to setup. Simply follow the steps below. I promise you, this is 100% real. I wouldn't jeopardize my EBay account status if this was a scam. My feedback is real and I will answer you on any question! Here is what you do. Click on the link below, register, pick an account type (referral is the easiest) and complete just 1 offer (Very important that you complete the 1 offer otherwise your account will sit in limbo until you do).This is not like other sites where you need to complete one offer on 2 or 3 different pages!!! And a lot of these offers are FREE trials with nothing else to buy...No commitments!!!

There are plenty of cool offers to choose from such as Blockbuster online, Stamp.com, Netflix, Gamefly which are services you would regularly sign up for anyways and their all secure networks, why not use them to get a free PS3 System or cash (I did the Stamps.com for a 30 day free trial and it never cost me a penny and I received credit for it the same day). Look at the offers and choose the one that works for you. After signing up and completing your one offer, simply refer 8-13 people (depending on the FREE prize you choose) to do the same under your link (just post the same thing as I have on eBay, and you'll get your referrals before the auction even ends.)

Then they will ship your Free gift or your selected item for free; No Joke, 100% REAL!!! The reason these companies make money, is because most people don't bother getting all the referrals. All you have to do is post it on EBAY! They use us as advertisement by word of mouth which saves them tons of money which goes toward yours and my free gift. These are legit companies such as Blockbuster, Netflix, Gamefly etc... You can copy my listing if you want. You must use your own authentic link though. You will get your own personal link after your orders placed.

Step 1: Click this link:
http://www.youripodtouch4free.com/index.php?ref=5241285


Step 2: Sign up and chose an account type (Referral is the easiest and best).

Step 3: Complete just 1 offer (like Blockbuster or Stamps.com or PosterPass.com) and refer up to 10 people to do the same (use eBay! Do what I did, copy my
ad).

Step 4: Receive your gift(s) for FREE!!!!!!!!!! (Even The Shipping
Is Free!!!)

For proof that this is for real, click on the link below. It's the
company that is behind everything.

I’m sure you've seen various 'free' gift scams on the Internet, but the following offers are NOT scams in any way, shape or form. This method has been covered by respectable sources such as CNN, MSNBC, Fox, Wired and G4.
The reason these companies make money, is because most people don't bother getting all the referrals. All you have to do is post it on eBay. They use us as advertisement by word of mouth which saves them tons of money that goes toward yours and my free gift.

There are many well known legitimate offers to choose from such as Blockbuster online, Stamp.com, Gamefly which are services you would regularly sign up for anyways and their all secure networks, why not use them to get a free PS3 or cash (I did the Stamps.com for a 30 day free trial and it never cost me a penny and I received credit for it the same day).

Step 4: Refer to people to do the same. Just do what I’m doing and use eBay.
Step 5: Receive your PS3 for FREE!
