A Good Workout

Guitar hero III is one of my favorite games on the PS2. I haven't played any of the other ones, but this one is very addicting and very entertaining. The controller is a wireless plastic guitar with 5 different colored frets at the top of the neck, a stum bar at the base, and a Wammy Bar. There is also a black strap to hold the guitar up around your neck, which is adjustable.
To play the game, you must press the fret buttons while strumming the strum bar according to the pattern that flashes across the screen. On easy mode, you only play with green, red and yellow. On medium you play with green, red, yellow, and blue. On hard, green, red, yellow, blue, and orange. And on expert you use the same as you use in hard mode, only there are more notes and the notes flash by faster.
Many famous songs are playable in guitar hero, such as Welcome To The Jungle, Mississippi Queen, sunshine Of Your Love, Before I Forget, Paranoid, Cherub Rock, Holiday In Cambodia, Black Magic Woman, and many others.
If you get the XBOX 360 version or the Wii version, you can go online and download new songs that come out for the game. I'm not sure how it works, though. I only have the game for the PS2.
So, if you want a game that is addicting, gives you a good workout, and will make you a rockstar all while sitting on your couch, get Guitar Hero III!
What's great about it: Fun to play, interesting plot, interactive, challenging, develops eye-hand-cordination, good workout
What's not so great: hand-eye cordination will help, very addicting
I would recommend this to a friend!

This game is really good and fun to play. The only real problem I encountered was forgetting to blink while I was playing, haha. But seriously the graphics and notes look alot better than the previous game, and the difficulty has been raised up a notch. The final song in this game must be at least twice as hard as the one from number 2. Another problem with the playstation 2 version was being unable to connect to the internet to download new songs to play etc. So I recommend going out to buy this game and play with your friends and rock out with a guitar, or play on the controller, whatever you find funner =)
What's great about it: better graphics, new songs
I would recommend this to a friend!

This is an excellent game to play alone or with friends. I'd highly recommend this Guitar Hero version, especially if you are a fan of the previous releases. The gameplay is more challenging, and the battle mode is a fun feature.
What's great about it: Good Songs, Good Gameplay, Challenging
What's not so great: None
I would recommend this to a friend!

I just got Guitar Hero 3 for my PS2 a few days ago and I cannot put it down. I am still a novice and have only beaten it on Easy, but I still have so much fun with it. All I want to do is play it.
I am really happy I got the guitar with the cord, because I read the wireless one has some flaws. I have had no problems and cannot wait to play it again.
What's great about it: It will keep you entertained for hours
What's not so great: Highly addictive
I would recommend this to a friend!

Awesome game, hours and hours of fun. I've beaten the game on Easy and Medium and I'm working on Hard (8 songs in) but is very frustrating for me.....eh....:) The best part of GH III is a lot of the songs are the actual songs from the artists and not the horrible sounding knock off's like in the previous games. Graphics are pretty good on the PS2 and saving progress is a litte slower than the previous games but not too bad. The speed at any difficulty level is much faster than the other GH games which I think makes the songs more realistic. Overal a great game, highly recommend to everyone!
What's great about it: Very fun game, makes you feel like a real band member lol
What's not so great: I guess the addictive part could possibly be a con....
