For those that worry Guitar Hero III will be too hard (and let's face it, Guitar Hero II was hard!), Neversoft has assured us that they're not aiming to make the game even harder. It only took a minor adjustment on our part and there's no reason for us to believe that Neversoft won't have the timing nailed down to perfection by the time the game releases this fall. After the opening miscues and adjustment, the game felt like the old glove it should and the fun kicked in. Even without being used to the timing on this early build, it only took about 2 minutes before we were ripping out fast licks with precision. Neversoft is bringing in testers regularly to get their opinion on timing (amongst other things) and are constantly adjusting the window to nail the sweet spot. You see, the timing window for when you can hit a note is not quite the same as Guitar Hero I and II. With Neversoft and RedOctane folks all around, awkwardness abounded. When we first jacked in ready to rock, we were met with instant failure. Even so, the basic gameplay is identical so the learning curve should be nonexistent. That means Guitar Hero III is being built from the ground up.

Since Harmonix is now owned by MTV and hard at work on Rock Band, Neversoft wasn't given access to the code from previous Guitar Hero games. It looks a little different and has a few new fancy bells and whistles to get you excited all over again, but it's still Guitar Hero. This is the same Guitar Hero we've all come to know and love. New multiplayer modes have been confirmed. More of the songs will be master tracks rather than covers. The song list has been carefully picked to meet the wishlists that have littered the internet since Guitar Hero was first released on PS2. But it also means that more of the songs and features we've all been clamoring for will finally make it in. That means the development team won't rock the boat too hard, staying true to the gameplay first laid out by Harmonix. Neversoft's driving philosophy behind Guitar Hero III is a simple one: Give the fans what they want. Activision put the development in the able hands of Neversoft, a team best known for the Tony Hawk series. Of course, we haven't heard the last of Axel Steel or Johnny Napalm. RedOctane and Harmonix, the two teams responsible for the hit franchise, got snatched up by Activsion and MTV respectively thus ending their partnership for future Guitar Hero games. There was no way that the Guitar Hero franchise could continue to break all sales expectations and not get noticed by the big dogs of the business world. First look at the wireless guitar and screens are here. The rock fest continues with Neversoft at the helm. Guitar Hero 3 has been anounced and there are 2 videos, and entire exclusive about it, and lots of pictures! Well I looked on the Boards and so far I see nothing so.
