YES! Now let's see a new control scheme too! Hey wait, will this cost less now, since we don't have to by anything but a controller shell and game?

Awsomeness. I can't wait for this, Guitar Hero 1 and 2 are my all time favorite games. Can't wait to see what this will be like on the Wii.

Hey I bet they will make the guitar like a peripheral that the Wii controller slides into.

That would be cool if you can insert the wiimote on the guitar and it can detect motion and the guitar sounds come out of the wiimote as well. That would rock so much.

Cool I wonder how the wiimote will be used in this one.

Oh no. Play some DDR, people. This game seriously doesn't even give you a workout. DDR does. It's just a rip-off of DDR that actually is worse.

At least they have a release date. Unlike SSBB.

I knew it was a good idea to wait for it on the Wii.

Dude, they better add some metal songs this time, and not that wannabe stuff either. Anyhow, about the game coming on to Wii; FRIGGAN AWESOME! I might actually consider getting good at the game now.

Wait! Is this the game on the Xbox 360, that has some guitars with it? If it is, that's going to be crazy. Now, Nintendo's stepping up.

Yes Drum hero does sound absolutely wicked awesome, but keep in mind Harmonix may not work on it themselves.

Well wiiman, Guitar Hero II was only JUST released. It takes a while to make a full-blown sequel.

Do you guys really think you'll use the wiimote on this one?

Yea, make drum hero. I would own everyone.

No, you rats. Stop and think. There will be no guitar that the wiimote "slides" into. It will be the same guitar and it will use the gamecube controller ports.

Hell yea! This is going to be freakin awesome!

Combine that "Drummer Hero" idea with the two guitars from this "Hero" and add vocals. You've got yourself an entire band! Wouldn't it be nice? Wouldn't it be BETTER if the guitar was actually wireless this time?

DragonFoxCoon said:

You know what could make this game better? If we could import music from our memory cards, then turn it into playable tracks in the game. Wouldn't it be nice?

Let me tell you this "wii owners will be very happy over the next few months".

It's a game called rock band, coming out. Guitar hero was just the beginning. Rock band will have drums, guitar, etc.

someguy said:

Hopefully it doesn't back out on its release date like SSBB.

I can't wait for drum hero, they could do so much with the Wii remotes.

Will you be able to play without a guitar?

Stranger said:

Listen, for this is the truth. In GH3, you put the Wii-mote in the guitar, so that means it's wireless. You play the game like normal. There are many new songs on the game, I can't even name them all. Also, a lot of people say that rock band sucks, and I believe them. So, after seeing some reviews, I'm putting a thumbs down to rock band.

It's a pain in the butt to have the Wiimote in and out when you want to play a different game. If I were you, I would wait until rock band Wii because the rock band guitar includes a USB hub to plug into the back of the Wii which makes it wireless.
