    Griper, you obviously dont know the meaning of the word... "game". I don't personally enjoy DDR, but what makes you think people play guitar hero to look cool? And about people who feel that they are playing the song... isnt that the game's ultimate goal? To allow people to escape realism and make them feel special... just like chopping an orc in warcraft or driving a lambo in need for speed. You obviously are a narrow-minded person, and more embarrasingly, you proved it so by making such comments on the internet for all to see. shame. Don't mind me. just bored at the moment. Rated 10 to pull the rating back up.… Expand

    Simply an incredible game, and the most fun I've had with any video game in many years. There's a very good reason why the console versions are STILL selling out at stores, months after the game's release.

    Warning: you will need a powerful PC to be able to play this. The graphics are ported from the Xbox 360 version, which was pretty dumb since a ton of people have comput    ers that aren't brand new.

    If you get bad framerates, TURN OFF THE CROWD GRAPHICS. The high polygon count of the crowd is responsible for 95% of the slowdown.    … Expand

    Great game from beginning to end. In fact it tends to get better as you get to the end. The difficulty curve is great, it's an easy game to pick up, very difficult to master, but you'll learn to get better at it as you play along. The game has some great songs that guys like me have been trying for years to play on a real guitar and anyone who loves animations would enjoy seeing how the band animates perfectly with the song. Many people seem to claim that it requires a good computer to play, but the game runs perfectly smoothly on my 3-year old computer.… Expand

    Griper you think that commenting without play the game its a good option?
    Well... Guitar Hero its the same think as Dancing genre, need practice and skill, if you are a noob that never played a guitar or something else, leave the game and aclaim it and cry in your bed.
    Dancing has an EXPENSIVE HUNK OF METAL, and you dance alone because you has no life, no friend and you dont go to partye    s.
    Guitar Hero its still great, has good graphics, and its the same thing if you spend money in a console or a video card, when you play EXPERT or HARD difficulty its like playing a real guitar, you need speed and concentration. The game has unlockable items and song like the DDR games. I rated it 10!    … Expand

    Guitar hero III is the best game ever for the xbox 360, it has great graphics and great songs. And the guitar is the best yet, i like it because it is wireless and the sticker sheets are awesome!!!!!!

    The PC version is a nice attempt that finally gives PC gamers the chance to experience one of the best game franchises to start up in the past few years. However, the laggy performance and slowdown makes the PC version pale in comparison to its console brethren.

    A solid port of a fairly awesome game. If not for the high system demands and random slowdowns, it might actually compete with the 360 and Wii for the best version available.

    Damn, is this one fine game. If you've ever dreamed of shredding blistering licks in front of an adoring audience, you need to pick up Guitar Hero III.
