Guitar Hero Makes a Legendary Move

By Patrick Daniels

The Guitar Hero franchise, is one of the most loved and followed franchise in the gaming world. People love the idea of pretending to be a rock star and being able to actively involve themselves by playing the controls on the guitar. This makes even the smallest of musical talented people feel like a musical giant. It was this following that has brought about the development of guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock.

Legend of Rock is available on all major platforms and is much more then just an updated game. Instead it is a new and original experience for all, even those that own other games in the Guitar Hero series. The premise of Guitar Hero is simple, for those that are new, You use a guitar controller and play along with the music by hitting the button that correspond to what is scrolling on the screen.

Although the game play in Guitar Hero III is 99% similar to previous games, it has an entirely new and different soundtrack, which is undeniably the best in the series. Along with the new tracks come a list of impressive rock and roll legends, such as Slash and Jimi Hendrix. Although the storyline is minimal, it is important to remember this is not a game that requires much of a story.

Music games are only as good as they sound, however, and Legends of Rock sounds great, especially if you have access to a surround sound system. Just be careful that your neighbors aren't around when you end up going in to "star power" mode, as this game really cranks when you want it to! Graphically, Legends of Rock isn't the most impressive showstopper available, but again, this game is not about graphics or storyline.

If you are in the hunt for a fun, easy to pick up game to share with friends, Legends of Rock is the game for you.
