Guitar Hero 3 review (Wii Version)

Guitar Hero 3 is a Guitar-playing Game (GPG) (I made that up) for the Wii, Xbox 360,
PS3, and PS2. This review is for the Wii version, not that it makes much difference.

STORY:

N/A

GAMEPLAY:

The Gameplay is nice and smooth, the objective being to "Play" the coloured notes as they pass by, with your plastic wireless guitar, by strumming and pushing the correct combination of colours. The game has four different difficulty settings, all of which I will explain:

EASY- The easiest difficulty setting, with only three colours to play, and with each song having VERY simple to play notes.

MEDIUM- Slightly harder than medium, with more complex note combinations and the addition of a blue note, forcing you to make use of your pinky as well.

HARD-Starting to get quite difficult, featuring faster tunes and the addition of an orange note, and, since your thumb isn't playing, will force you to slide your hand over to play the orange notes.

EXPERT-The hardest difficulty setting, and, although it doesn't add another note, it does just "Turn it up a notch" and make everything harder.

The game also has a multiplier which goes up with your streak, increasing the amount of points you get for each note. There is also a star power feature, which, once you have hit enough "SP Phrases", can be used to double the multiplier. The note annotations are also pretty good, unlike Guitar Hero AEROSIMTH...

GAMEPLAY: 9.5/10

GRAPHICS:

The graphics are impressive and flashy, even though they don't really matter in this type of game. The PS3 version of the game supposedly has better graphics than the Wii, though.

GRAPHICS 9/10

MUSIC:
The game features songs like "Slow Ride" (By Foghat) All the way to "Raining blood"
(By Slayer). Although there are some bad songs, there aren't too many of them.

MUSIC: 8.5/10

OVERALL: 9/10

Overall, Guitar Hero 3 is a pretty darn good game, if you have quick fingers, and like musical games and GPG's. Discuss your Guitar Hero 3 opinion in the comments.
