Summary
Do you like rock music? Do you like video games? Do you like rock music and video games? Chances are if you say yes to at least one of those questions, you're familiar with Guitar Hero, publisher Activision's genius marriage of axe-shaped controller and rock and roll music. If the likes of SingStar is a little too twee for you (or you're just tone deaf when it comes to singing) strap on thine axe and start shredding.
Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock (GH3) doesn't complicate things with more coloured buttons or extra effects pedal-type add-ons. What it does give in this third iteration is a multiplayer action-inspired battle mode, gruelling boss battles, lots of unlockable content and re-vamped rock venues in which to perform. The PS3's online multiplayer game modes enable guitar-slingers all over the world to compete head-to-head in the ultimate in guitarmageddon.
Buyers of the PlayStation 2 GH3 bundle get to shred on a new exclusive shape, Gibson’s Kramer guitar, popularised by hard rockers and known for its distinctive body design for furious fingering.
Tracks to shred along to in GH3 include tunes from and made famous by the likes of Foghat, Mountain, Cream, The Who, Black Sabbath, The Sex Pistols, Sonic Youth, Blue Oyster Cult, Scorpions, Aerosmith, ZZ Top, Santana, Queens of the Stone Age and Slayer. There are also featured original songs from in-game end of level bosses Slash and Tom Morello.
