Fun: If you're at all familiar with Guitar Hero games, you already know the basics. but this is probably the best thus far in many ways. First of all, it looks really good, the animation is smooth and detailed and the "fret board" (where the notes appear) has been tweaked slightly to make it easier to time your strums and to see if notes are played at the same time or if they are sequenced (GH2's fret board seems "flatter" so the notes come towards you rather than down like in this game, i like it this way). Also, hammerons and pulloffs are much much easier to recognize on screen. The wired controller is good- it stands up to use better than the previous PS2 guitars. you obviously don't have to worry about batteries or anything. The cable length is good for small to medium sized TVs, anyone with a big screen and some room to maneuver should get the wireless guitar. Song selection is good, i prefer this list over GH2. And the downloadable content is getting better (though they seem to take their time between releasing track packs, unlike Rock Band). On the plus side, some of the tracks are free to download (though they probably aren't available year round). My only real complaint is that, compared to Rock Band, at the highest difficulties, this game gets almost impossible. Just look on youtube, watch someone play Reign in Blood on expert (not to mention Through the Fire and the Flames!). Just insanely frustrating. hoewver, the lower difficulties are reasonable and most people should have plenty of fun in the easy and medium categories (nothing really changes, the songs just get harder).
