Customer Reviews
GH3 for the Wii
By now, especially in reading the other reviews, you know what this game is about. So, on to my experiences with it...
This game is quite fun, plain and simple. Granted, if you've learned guitar, you might need to "unlearn" it to an extent, but of course you're not here to play a guitar, really, but to play a video game -- complete with button timing and accuracy. In this, GH3 succeeds quite well. Graphics might not be world-beater, that's for sure, but I didn't get a Wii so I could have PS3 graphics. That's why I got a PS3. The graphics are workable, and for the most part not distracting.
The song selecion is good, too -- almost all the regular songs are fun to play (exceptions are due to personal taste, as we all have our opinions on this). The bonus songs are almost exclusively from the past few years. The older songs all hit the mark perfectly, but the newer ones are very hit and miss. Still, you don't need to play them to progress in the game.
The downsides? Alas, not all of the songs are original recordings. That gets a big minus in my book. The boss battles could've been far better, but are passable, with one exception. Tom Morello's "I can make funny sounds with my guitar" battle is distracting and dull. I can get through it fine but only on mute -- and a guitar game where mute not only helps but soothes your ears is not a good thing. I know the battles have been tweaked for GH World Tour, and good for that, but between the covers and this aspect, this game loses a star.
However, I've been playing this game for a good many months and replayability is still there. A solid purchase.
Love it!!!
I LOVE this game! It has great songs, most of which everybody should know. It's alot of fun and easy to play! If you don't know what you do here it is:
Pretty much when the little circle note lines up with the other circle you press down the color of the note and then you strum. That's pretty much what you do, you can play career to unlock songs. And there is free play but you can only play which ones you unlocked or bought (with money earned from Career). And if you have two guitars you can play two player.
Neat Game
I purchased the game for my 12 year old son. He loves it and his 8 year old sister loves to watch him play. She also sings the songs. Unfortunately, not all of the songs should be sang by an 8 year old but that's probably why it's rated "T" for teens! Overall, it's a fun game.
