 Works with Guitar Hero 3 Controller May 30, 2008
4 out of 6 found this review helpful
This game works with the Guitar Hero 3 controller, so if you already have this, then this game is good value considering the quality track list and vast selection of downloadable songs.

Its all about patents
Unfortunately, here in the uk we have been once again shafted and will have to wait until 2008 for this one, but my friends... do not be hiesty and settle for Guitar hero III just because of the wait... as the saying goes good things come to those that wait
This game IS guitar hero III, plus drum hero, plus Bass Hero, Plus Front Man Hero... oh and it has better tunes (at least from a UK perspective) and.... The downloadable content is MEGA. By the time it comes out here the whole of NEVERMIND! By NIRVANA! Will be available for the game.
The whole game of creating the band and living it is a much deeper and richer experience than just working though a list of tracks in the guitar hero games. And how does it play... well its by the original developers who have also made drumming and singing games, so you know its just going to work perfectly. Initial reviews from the USA rate it between 9.5 and 10.
If playing alone you have the guitar, drum and vocal campaigns to play though, but then, Friday night with the boys (and beer) kicks in and this game comes into its own!
Do yourself a favour, wait... it will be worth it
And if your that desperate.. call of duty 4 and orange box are out there... plus mass effect is on its way!

This game is great, it's very enjoyable alone, and bring a few friends round and it's a hoot, I'd recommend it to anyone.
P.S I don't give a damn about the price, theres nothing wrong with it as far as I can see, I could go into the prices on everything increasing, food, fuel and other necessities but I'd just be stooping to the level of the people whining about the price of this brilliant game. MUST HAVE!

Great Game. Lots of fun. And not as pricey as the RRP. Games are about fun and this game is superb.

I know there has been a lot of criticism about the price of this game. Yes it does cost a lot to buy but then new games usually do. But I weigh the price against how good the game is and what you actually get for your money. I bought this game together with rock band in a box and together they weren't too bad in price. I only saw the game advertised in a magazine a day before I bought it as had not heard of it before. I thought I would get it for my other half as a pseudo father day present from our pets. For anyone who hasn't played guitar hero, which it is exactly like, here is an over view of the game.
Basically with the guitar part you can use either set of fret buttons ( I like the fact it has two sets, one for smaller hands and one regular set. I have small hands and have found it difficult in guitar hero to play very well in the medium and higher levels) I would recommend going through the tutorials if you are new to it. If you are not I wouldn't bother as you don't get an achievement for completeing them. To play you watch the screen and you see a kneck of a guitar appear and gradually coloured notes will travel along this kneck. When it reaches the bar you play the corresponding fret key on the guitar controller. For the easy level you just use 3 keys and for the higher levels you have to use more. I am still getting used to the extra notes. For playing the drums it is pretty much the same. The only difference being is that you just have four drums to play and the drums each have a colour which corresponds to the note on the screen. Plus you do get a long thin orange note which represents the kick drum. You get a peddle which attachs to the rest of the drum kit. With the vocals you use the mic and a regular xbox controller. If you want to sing and play an instrument you can use a normal xbox headset. The words to the song move across the screen and you have to sing at the proper pitch when the words hit the bar at the side of the screen. Also when the guitarist goes off on one in a solo you have the option of a tamborine which you can play by just banging your hand against the mic when the little black notes move across the screen. You don't have to do this and it won't affect your score. As neither of us can sing to save our lives this is the only part of the game we have had problems with.
All in all I would give this the thumbs up and would especially recommend this to people who have played the guitar hero games. It expands on those games and in my opinion is more fun, especially as you can play with more friends and get a band going. It has great tunes to play and sing along to. A good mixture of the classics and some new stuff.
Personally I would ignore the stuff about the price and just buy it, you won't regret it. Just be warned that it can be addictive, me and partner have stayed up all night a few times on the band world tour!
