Dhsu Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 Worth it solely for "Assassin." I don't think I've ever been more satisfied playing a music game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleck Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 Worth it solely for "Assassin." Yeah it's pretty much the best song on that game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomic Dog Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 I really like the commerical for it. With Kobe, A-Rod, Tony Hawk, and Michael Phelps doing Guitar Hero, "Risky Business." I burst out laughing the first time I saw it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdgeCrusher Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 Ok. So I found the GHWT bundle pack at walmart. The game, 1 GHWT controller, and 1 wireless Les Paul for 120. I needed a new guitar anyway, as my old Les Paul is about to die, and my fiancee needed a new one cause our xplorer whammy bar broke. So I got this. Verdict is, GHWT guitar is the sex. I love the star power button on it, and its very responsive. GHWT so far sucks ass though. Same songs from RB2 almost, and the hit detection makes me want to shoot myself from boredom and easiness. Ill have to see how hard it gets later on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanilla Gorilla Posted November 1, 2008 Author Share Posted November 1, 2008 Err... I was kinda hoping the point of this thread would become "Yeah, I was thinking about my [insert Remix Here] into GHTunes, look for [insert Name Here] on it if you want to rock out some [insert Game Here]" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Majin GeoDooD Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 Good game so far.. took me a few days to beat all the songs on guitar, Hot For Teacher took me the longest by far. I've run into the issue with the sensitivity on the yellow cymbal pad, but it doesn't seem to be as bad for me as others. I'll probably do the tape trick on it. Band play is definitely fun.. I have a couple friends that are loving all the southern songs in the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toadofsky Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 I thought the bubble man one was pretty cool :S The Bubble Man one was the best sounding of the bunch. See that is why I don't even care about the song creation mostly because of the midi format. Granted, you can get some great songs made from midi tunes, but that isn't always the case, as it seems with the majority of songs. Hopefully, Rock Band 3 (you know it's inevitable), will have a better song creation method. At least here's to hoping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overflow Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Does Neversoft know about the drum issues, and are they planning to make new models anytime soon or at all? Also, just making sure: The wii version of GHWT drums has a midi port, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neversoft is a part of Activision, what do you think? I'd be surprised if they'll fix the models that are not functioning without a price tag. After all, one guy their thought Bands should PAY THEM for putting their song on the game, how conceited can you get? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EdgeCrusher Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 Considering GHWT has achievements for uploading one song, and downloading 3 songs, the traffic they are getting is idiots uploading random riffs to get that, and downloading shit to get the other. But they see it as huge traffic, OMG PAY MONEY NOW! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiredzombie Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 Not gonna lie, I only really by these games for songs i want to play and i normally dont wanna songs like black magic woman, or lay down I'm not really into the old stuff...or Muse fo that matter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdgeCrusher Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 After playing Tony Hawk's Underground Wasteland Tour Hero, Im selling all my GH games. 2,3, WT, and actually Rock Band 1, since I have RB2 and imported the songs. Im just really tired of the GH set up, the huge note window, and ugly characters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maco70 Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 The music creator for this game looks like it would be fun. Has anyone tried it first hand? It's hard to tell if it's any good, what with the amazing songs shown on youtube. /sarcasm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overflow Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 I got the wii version, but I'm having a hard time figuring some things out. First of all, what do you need to do in order to use a midi keyboard in the recording studio? Also, is it possible to use the drums as a standard midi drumset for use in Garageband? I have the midi-to-USB cable, but I can't seem to get it to work. Can anyone help? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow Wolf Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 OK, I know I'm resurrecting a half dead thread here, but I have a question. I will be picking up Guitar Hero World Tour for my PS3 in a couple days. I'm no Guitar Hero virgin, but this will be the first GH game I myself have owned. As such, I'd like to know a couple things about compatibility, backwards, forwards, and sideways, preferably from someone who's actually had the issues I'm asking about. I've already Googled for some time and not found these specific answers. In a numbered list for your convenience: 1. Can I take my sexy World Tour guitar and use it to play Guitar Hero 3 for Playstation 3? I know I can use a GH3 guitar in World Tour, minus some neat features, but if I pick up a second guitar, I'd rather have 2 World Tour guitars than buying an older one. Because either way, that axe is gonna be a bass half the time. 2. If I have to buy an older guitar to play GH3, is the Les Paul or the Xplorer a good option? IF I have to buy an older guitar to play GH3, I suppose I'm OK with that, I just want a really nice one without breaking the bank. 3. Have any cross compatibility issues between GH World Tour and Rock Band/Rock Band 2 instruments been fixed? It's my understanding that Sony promised that all instrument peripherals for its system would be cross compatible. If they truly are, it would be inasanely awesome to just pick up the Rock Band/Rock Band 2 discs and get access to all that awesomeness too. 4. The original Rock Band drum set had 1 less drum than the World Tour drum set, right? In which case, do they just not use one drum on the World Tour drum set when you're playing Rock Band 1 on them? I know Rock Band 2 has one more drum, so I assume there's 1 to 1 compatibility for all note tracks on the drums in RB2. Anybody who can clear a few of those questions up, it would be very appreciated. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Refer to this for all compatability questions- http://www.kotaku.com.au/games/2008/11/the_official_guitar_herorock_band_compatibility_chart-2.html To answer you question, it seems that the GHWT guitar is the only one that works across all the games for PS3. 2. If I have to buy an older guitar to play GH3, is the Les Paul or the Xplorer a good option? IF I have to buy an older guitar to play GH3, I suppose I'm OK with that, I just want a really nice one without breaking the bank. The X-Plorer is not available for PS3. It is only for Xbox 360, PC, and Mac. Just get another GHWT guitar that way you know it works with any music game you buy. B]3. Have any cross compatibility issues between GH World Tour and Rock Band/Rock Band 2 instruments been fixed? It's my understanding that Sony promised that all instrument peripherals for its system would be cross compatible. If they truly are, it would be inasanely awesome to just pick up the Rock Band/Rock Band 2 discs and get access to all that awesomeness too. Again see no. 1 4. The original Rock Band drum set had 1 less drum than the World Tour drum set, right? In which case, do they just not use one drum on the World Tour drum set when you're playing Rock Band 1 on them? I know Rock Band 2 has one more drum, so I assume there's 1 to 1 compatibility for all note tracks on the drums in RB2. Rock Band 2 does not have an extra drum pad. It uses the same four pads as Rock Band 1. When using the GHWT drums on RB or RB2, it does simply ignore one of the pads. But when using RB or RB2 drums with GHWT, there is a separate note chart made specifically for 4 pads instead of 5. Hope that helps. I have GH 2,3, and World Tour and RB 1 & 2, so if you have any other questions I can answer them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow Wolf Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 It does very much, thanks. I found the handy dandy cross compatibility chart a couple hours after I posted that last night. Their chart still says the GHWT drums don't work in Rock Band 1, but I don't believe that's accurate anymore either. It would seem the World Tour instruments are pretty widely agreed upon as the nicer controllers as well, so I'll eventually pick up RB1 and 2 and play them on the GH instruments. Since I don't have a PS3 that can play PS2 games, I'll have to pick up a PS2 guitar if I wanna play Guitar Hero 1 & 2. Honestly though, 3 was the only one I was overly concerned about, I don't like the number of bad covers in the first 2 GH games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
