    The best song selection yet combined with unparalleled playability and a challenge for anyone from beginner to master makes this PS2's definitive music game. A must-have for anyone who plays video games to have fun.

    All the best stuff from the first two games has been kept in and everything that's been added just makes this GH the best yet. [Christmas 2007, p.80]

    Despite sharing the exact same innards as Guitar Hero II, Legends of Rock is, in every conceivable way, a better product than its predecessors. It's better presented, better put together, more professional, more complete.

    Best of all the guitar hero games, however, there are a few gripes that I have. Why does the game save when you fail a song??!? Why did they put slayer-raining blood on the main setlist(song should have been on the bonus section, if at all), and why can't i take my ps2 online like the wii. Song list is so much better than any other GH, but i wish they'd put down less bonus tracks and more mainstream songs. P.S. no megadeath song is a bummer.… Expand

    This was the first GH i bought. The songs are really what makes or breaks. I guess if you love over 50% of the songs, it's pretty good. I'd say it was marginal for me. Personally, I think Devil Went Down to Georgia sucks balls. Metallica-One is by far the best. Ok there is good GNR and some other good stuff too. Boss battles I really didnt mind. And what's with no friggin AC/DC? From now on, no AC/DC = I don't buy the game. AND no van Halen. Recipe for success next time: AC/DC Back in Black and Van Halen Hot For Teacher.… Expand
