Guitar Hero III review (with controller)

Congratulations were congratulations are due. Tony Hawk developer Neversoft had a hell of a task ahead of it when it took up the rock mantle from Harmonix. Any huge deviation in the established formula could have ruined the series, but it couldn't ride the wave of past glory. It's managed to near-perfect compromise, putting its stamp on the brand and adding to it in most respects (battle mode hopefully a blip that'll be ironed out next time). The proof is in the songs, better balanced and offering enough range to please everybody. Here's to another six months of hard rock heaven.
