It felt like Christmas Sunday morning when both my wife and I woke up to finally open up Guitar Hero III which we had picked up at 12:00 midnight whilst returning from the HaloWeen BYOS LAN. After being up so late and sleeping in, we didn’t get to start wailing on it until around lunchtime.

Upon opening the box 47after remarked how cool it was to be able to separate the neck of the guitar and how she liked the idea of removable faceplates. The new guitar is slightly heavier, and slightly longer than the old version. This is a plus in my book making it feel (just a bit) more like a real guitar. The only negative I would have to add would be that it appears that the only way to power this thing is with 2 AA batteries. No battery pack looks like it would fit anywhere on the guitar. But it gets the job done.. now it’s time to rock.

All the previous reviews are right: It’s Guitar Hero, except a bit better graphics and new songs. We started on the co-op campaign mode using both the new guitar and the old GHII guitar for the 360. Coop was a blast to play only that we noticed that it appears most of the achievements were only going to player 1. That’s fine as long as you know what is happening before playing through half or the full co-op career.

After playing through a few set lists I convinced 47 to jump onto Xbox Live and play some Face Off. Personally, this turns out to be the most fun in GH I’ve had so far. 47after was able to get 100% on a couple of songs in this mode, wiping away the competition who felt it necessary to play on expert or hard mode (these guys were very good, however couldn’t rack up the points as a 100% x4 multiplier run on medium).

We tried battle mode, but the powerups turned out to be more of a nuisance than a benefit to gameplay in my opinion. The Quick Match feature wasn’t working for us though… it seemed the best way to get in a multiplayer match was to search for customs or host your own game and wait, which I am fine with.

We haven’t completed it yet, but so far we’re enjoying GHIII a lot. If anything, the wireless guitar and new songs are definitely worth purchase price.
