guitar hero help

[tigersscareme]

ok, so, I want to get guitar hero and officially never leave my house, but when I was checking it out last night, I &II had different guitar controllers on the back of their packages.
 
 Is that necessary?

[manimtired]

just learn how to play guitar instead...it might make ya famous one day.

All of the GH controllers work with all of the games, except across platforms.  In other words a Guitar for Playstations GH II will work for Playstations GH III, but not xbox's GH III.  
 
 I would GH III's guitar though - it's wireless, a convenience which I underestimated.
 
 There are slight variations in game play for each game, but the main difference is the song selection.

I would recommend against the wireless controller.  There is a lag (it is very slight) that makes the game significantly more difficult when you get up to the higher difficulty levels.

That sounds like an excuse to me.   :p

so that's why i can't get through "won't get fooled again" on hard playing bass for rock band. . .

I agree with the lag on the wireless controller.  I have less problems with the one that came with III compared with the extra I bought.
 
 The wii version of this game is difficult for me b/c of the lag.  (I play on PS2)

[killsaly]

you can configure your game to compensate for the lag.  bigger screen hdtv's also hhave a bit of lag to them.

can we come up with some scenarios where they could release a GH that would suck more?

No.  It's because you're a drummer.

Dude.  I would buy that in a heartbeat if it were Rock Band.  But yes, for GH, it would suck.
 
 And as soon as my Rock Band Guitar works on GH, your challenge is accepted.  I only play the strat...

while i don't like either of those bands, i don't think either of those bands have reached the level of suck that aerosmith achieved, especially starting with the early 1990s, sorry.
