Activision Rolls Out Guitar Hero III Details
Set for release on the PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Nintendo Wii, the game will feature Gibson's Les Paul ("real life" LP pictured) and Kramer guitar models, gameplay additions such as a new multiplayer battle mode and boss battles, exclusive unlockable content and authentic rock venues. Guitar Hero III will also include more master recordings than previous iterations and a greater number of original recordings. The initial tracks announced include Paint it Black by The Rolling Stones, Cherub Rock by Smashing Pumpkins and Sabotage by Beastie Boys. "The development team at Neversoft has been exceptional, and we've been able to incorporate a host of fresh new online and multi-player game play modes, along with exciting content into this version of Guitar Hero that our fans have been asking for," said Dusty Welch, head of publishing at RedOctane. "Also, many of the top bands and songs we've tried to get in the past are now on board, and we've definitely got some giant aces in the hole to say the least. In addition, offering a new line of Gibson wireless guitars for each platform is going to truly add to the authentic rock star experience like no other," he added.
