  Busted... WTF!

  Nearly a year after we bought Guitar Hero III there was a nice deal at ShopTo for Rock Band 1 this week. It was 18 GBP, so we imported it (prices here in Germany are around 35 EUR for a used copy).

  Today it arrived, we plugged everything in and the GH guitars don't work. Gnaaaaaaaaaah! I had this news in my mind vaguely when ordering and thought it would be no problem.

  After a bit of web research by LadyMog it turned out that it works on XBOX360 but not on PS3 and that there probably is a patch but Activision holds it back. For whatever reson as you obviously need to buy Guitar Hero to get a GH guitar.

  Don't know what we should do now. A full band set is too expensive, despite the fact that the Rock Band 2 bandsets are STILL not available in Europe. Maybe we get a used RB1 guitar on eBay.

  Update: It works! By chance, we yesterday bought a used copy of GH World Tour because it was a good offer and the Les Paul didn't work there too. "No way!" we thought and by fiddling around a bit LadyMog assigned a controller number lower 5 to her guitar which made it work. And with that "trick" it works in Rock Band as well. Phew!

  Guitar Hero 3 Twinpack

  Hey dudes and dudettes,

  just wanted to drop a line Lady Mog and I finally joined you cool guys playing music rhythm games as we yesterday bought a GH3 twinpack for PS3.

  

  We actually were gathering some information for our upcoming apartment in two furniture stores but still got time till our bus went home when we were finished. As we were in a big shopping mall there also was an electronic store and we took a look there as well. There we saw it, a twinpack of GH3 with GH3 and two wireless Les Paul guitars for 75 EUR. Normally it's 90 EUR for GH3 with one guitar so we tried to find the catch, but there wasn't any and so we bought it. It was the first time we saw such a twinpack and it also was the last one for PS3, so lucky us I guess.

  We're still sucking too much to be any competition for you pros and I find it quite hard to coordinate 3 fingers in easy mode but let's see how this turnes out with a little more practice.

  Till then, "...played until my fingers bled..."
