Manufacturer's Description

Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock continues to build on Guitar Hero's successful easy to play, but difficult to master gameplay mechanic to take the franchise to a whole new level. With master tracks from legendary bands like Sex Pistols, Guns N Roses, Rolling Stones, Metallica, and Pearl Jam, along with original music composed specifically for the game by iconic guitarists Slash and Tom Morello, Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock sports the greatest soundtrack to ever find its way into a videogame. Vastly improved graphics immerse gamers into their rock arenas and heighten their visual experience while the new wireless Gibson guitar controllers allow the players to channel their inner guitar gods. The arcade-inspired battle mode, expanded co-op career and boss battles add depth and extend gameplay for countless hours of shred time.

Customer Reviews

Can't put it down
my son bought this at the weekend and we've played it to death since - I keep kicking him off so I can play - it's stunning - I don't play the guitar in real life and we never had the PS2 version so I can't compare but it really feels like you're playing a real guitar!! so much better than air guitar!

as for the songs - I'm not so keen on the thrash stuff but most of it is really good, some of the songs you think you don't know but when you've heard them you'll recognise them and even the "new" ones are really catchy and you'll find yourself humming them the next day at work.

and they're bringing an aerosmith version out in a couple of months HEAVEN!

AWESOME FUN!!!
This game is great fun!! It's like playing air guitar but you're controlling the song for real!! lol. 'Easy' difficulty was really enjoyable and can get you into the game easily to learn the rhythm and button configuration etcetera, and it is always fun to go back to Easy and have a slower 'jam' to your favourite tracks, but then step up to Medium, Hard & Expert and the game turns into a real challenge, but ends up being so rewarding if you get through a song!!

The game's graphics have been stepped up a lot since GH2 on the Playstation 2, although it's comic-like characters are still based towards the younger generations. Although to be honest, you're concentrating on the fret board and when to push the buttons so much, who cares about the graphics!?!?!?! The song listing is fantastic and the newer songs from bands like the Kaiser Chiefs and The Killers means this game has something that everyone will remember rocking to. And now online co-op or challenges means you can rock with or against someone on the other side of the World!! Awesome!

A great fun game that is hard to put down, I love it!!!

Legends of Rock
Legends of Rock has been absolutley mindblowing, the experience you get when playing this fantastic game is unbelievable, there's hours of fun, even new songs to add to your track list from the Playstation Network and is awesome for when you have friends over, i ordered this game monday afternoon and recieved it on Wednesday that week! Fast delivery i have to say, and well worth the money as i find myself playing only this game from my collection and always saying "Just one more song" Also the Guitar that comes free is wicked and i havn't had any problems with it all which others seem to claim they have, but i would seriously reccommend this game to anyone as i said to myself before i got the game, its a stupid idea for a game, but i played it round a friends and i take it all back!!
