If I didn't already own both versions of Guitar Hero for the PS2, you bet I'd pick up the 360 version so I could get my hands on those extra songs. Though I hate the design of the 360 guitar.

So, who's picking up Guitar Hero, can I get a show of hands?

I will probably get it as I don't really care about the guitar design, but I'm worried that I won't really get anything out of it since I don't play guitar.

Not being a guitar player should mae it more appealing. I've been playing for 13 years or so and it seemed silly at first. i was like "I play real guitar..I don't needk a toy". But now, I think it looks pretty fun.  It could actually probably be a useful tool for helping guitarists learn fretboard perception.

I've never played the first 2 so yea I'm going to try to pick this up Tuesday 10am when the stores open. Since this is a huge box there is going to be limited supply compared to games that take up less space. My local EB said they're only getting 1 extra copy besides the pre-orders so I think I'll try Circuit City (free points card) or Best Buy.

Naw, no wireless for the 360 guitar, just a standard wired controller. Also, watch your caps! Anyway, I'm going to try to pick this up tomorrow if Sears gets some in. I am buying it from Sears because I have a 100 dollar gift card from there, so I can buy the game and an extra guitar and only end up paying around 60 bucks!

I ordered it today and i'm hoping it will come on Wednesday or Thursday.

Mmm i'm not sure if i like the new one better than the old one (i only played GH2 at a demo kiosk at toys' r us ).

If it's lighter then it will Be better imo as that means i'll Be able to play it longer without my arms getting tired..and i mean after 5 hrs of play lol :P

Man, that's why they have the shoulder strap. For me it was all about hand cramping. After 2 songs at Best Buy my left hand was really cramping up, maybe I was too tense but I can't see this being one of those games I play for marathon sessions.

Explorer body looks miles better than the SG in my opinion. (Never was an SG fan)

Though I can see why some people won't like the Explorer shape.

I've got a copy reserved at Gamestop. I have never even held a GH controller. So, it will be a completely new experience for me. Can't wait!!!

I read that it's an MS policy that all wireless controllers have to be made my MS. they should make an exception for this one since it's specialty.

the game is great, no doubt, but the whammy bar on the controller sucks.. theres something wrong with a lot of ppls wired guitars where the whammy doesnt always pick up. On the PS2 version, the bar works perfectly, but for some reason on 360, it doesnt really register.. its pretty frustrating.

other than that, though, its a lot of fun, and feels a bit more challenging than the original. new songs take a bit more skill i think

Seriously doubtful. People like money and I doubt MS and Sony would cooperate like that.

I am buying the game, but not for myself. It's for my bf's b-day. He plays the guitar and videogames so he has to like it.

I don't play guitar either but it's the funnest game i have ever played! Oh, and to the topic creator, I personally like the guitar on 360 more than PS2... it looks cooler too! But yeah, get the game talkingpie92 because if you like music you will like this game, end of story! My wife likes the game man! That should tell you something right there!

It's a really great game, but I didn't own it for Ps2. If I had, I would've probably sold it and bought the 360 version.
