Customer Reviews

Super , Smashing, Great
I own this and Guitar hero 3 and I play this more. I think this has a better song list than 3. Cracking game

Great!
When I first started playing this, I found it very hard to play but as soon as I did the tutorials, the game became much easier. The tutorials are simple and easy to understand. All of the songs are great especially the bonus ones. When the game is loading, it gives hints or facts that will help you and there is also a very handy practice mode. I absolutley love the multiplayer mode because I always beat my friends in the face-off, but you can also earn new bass guitars in the co-op mode. The only problem with this game is that if you play on it for long enough, it can hurt your wrist, but I think it's worth it.

guitar hero 2 rocks!!!!
What a fantastic game!!! Following many a drunken 'guitar hero' night over a mates house, I have finally ordered my own so I can practice every night and kick her arse!!! I cant wait for it to arrive. Great fun for everyone!!! Highly recommended to all you wanna be rockers out there!!!
