I came. I saw. I rocked.

So I picked up the game that I wanted to buy a 360 - Guitar Hero 3. Rock On. The new Les Paul wireless controller kicks some serious ass. I played for about 8 hours yesterday so my hands hurt a bit this morning :) I went through all of medium and half of hard. Then I rocked some multiplayer with SirPoonga (which we totally tore up).

Neversoft worked a "storyline" into GH3 and it was good enough to get you from point A to point B but not really anything to write home about. The track selection isn't as good as GH2 (IMO) and the boss fights were kind of lame...until Lou. I won't spoil it for people who haven't finished the game yet but the final boss fight was actually kind of cool.

Flat-out suckage:

• No built-in support for voice - boo. (although you can just create a voice channel in XBL)
  
• No XBL coop career? WTF!
• No "lobby" system

Total Awesomeness:

• Both head-to-head multiplayer modes are great fun
  
• great achievements
• wireless guitar (and it feels more sturdy IMO)
• Fire and Flames makes Freebird look like a walk in the park :)

I'm definitely not regretting my 360 purchase now. This game is going to have a lot of play time left in it :)
