The Wii version will be the only Guitar Hero game that will feature force-feedback thanks to the rumble in the controller, and believe it or not, in our hands-on, you really could feel the guitar shake to the beat when you rocked out with Star Power, as well as "buzz" when crazy effects are going on in the game.
Admins at Guitar Hero fansite Scorehero.com were given a tour of Neversoft's offices, and with it an exclusive look at new content. Along with new character Midori, they were shown four new songs: Suck My Kiss - Red Hot Chili Peppers (Original recording), La Grange - ZZ Top (Cover), Number Of The Beast - Iron Maiden (Original recording), and Through The Fire And Flames - Dragonforce (Original recording).
I agree with most of what your saying and it could do very well but I'm a bit skeptical at the moment so I'll just have to wait and see. At the moment though the stock doesn't see, to be doing to well.
This is the first Guitar Hero game for a Nintendo platform. Therefore it's reaching a group of gamers that didn't have access to the other games (presuming they don't own a PS2/360), which also means they don't already have a controller.
While I have doubts about the 360 version doing as well as #2, I think the Wii version will do as well (if not better) than the PS2 version of #2...especially if they integrate the Wiimote into it somehow. The guitar holds the remote in it, so possibly we can have bonus points for fancy playing/moves?
Okay I'm just gonna say I don't think that this version of guitar hero 3 or any other version other than the ps2 and possibly the 360 version will sell over 1 million copies, because it's coming out on 4 different machines and lots of people already have controllers for those versions. As well as that anyone who knows harmonix isn't making this one might decide to hold off.
