How many times have you been sitting in that hotel room of yours and then you look up to see that lonely game controller tucked away in the corner of the entertainment unit? Me either, but they are there, trust me. With the ever growing interest in Guitar Hero, and devices like the Wii, Hotels are starting to cash in by offering such services, but at a large price. Some hotels in major cities, such as Los Angeles, are charging up to $50 an hour to use Wii machines. That's a high price to pay for parents to entertain their kids for an hour. Regardless, it seems as though rocking out or going wiinsane are not just for your living room anymore. Now the road warriors can enjoy a little video game rock stardom while in their favorite hotel, and possibly pick up some groupies.
It appears as though the Wii owners who opted for the replacement CD received a bonus treat in the mail when they got their package from Activision. It is being reported that Activision made good with more than just the stereo version of Guitar Hero III, they also include a free faceplate for the Wii controller. Way to go Activision.
It was only a matter of time before the "mouse" got involved in the musical game arena. Disney has announced their plans to launch a game called "Ultimate Band". Please don't confuse this with Rock Band, as this one is only for the Nintendo Wii and DS. No other platforms yet, so the game's reach will be far less than Guitar Hero since it doesn't play on Xbox or Playstation, which is what most of the Guitar Hero games are sold for. In their press release, Disney had this to say: “We have chosen to combine familiar classics with today’s hottest songs.” One can only imagine what this means. Maybe a little Hanna Montana to rock out to? I don't know but I smell a little "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" in your future if you get this puppy.
Activision has announced it's plans to make all those Wii Guitar Hero Rockers happy. Either you wait for your disc to be replaced, which could take 4 - 6 weeks, or you can send your unit back for the full refund. If you decide to send your game back for the full refund you need to follow this link. Read it very closely and follow all the directions for a full refund.
But the real question is, why not just keep on rocking and wait for the replacement disc? If that doesn't work, then refund it, but at least give the game a chance.
The pictures are finally in. Activision finally released a screen shot of the upcoming Aerosmith Guitar Hero. Available in June, the game will feature nothing but Aerosmith, from 'Don't Want To Miss A Thing' to 'Sweet Emotion' to 'Love In An Elevator.' Players will be able to take the roles of guitarists Steve Perry and Brad Whitford, as well as Tom Hamilton on bass.
Band Mashups is the first time a musical “mashup” game has been delivered on Wii, allowing players to battle it out with their preferred musical style. Band Mashups features both an exciting two player versus mode and an extensive single-player campaign where players take on the role of one of eleven bands trying to topple the nefarious big boss Mr. Hong and take control of the faraway city of New Cadenza.
One of the nice things about buying Guitar Hero II is that when Guitar Hero III came out, all you had to do was buy the game. However, if you want to have someone else over to jam with you on the Wii version, then you need to pick up an extra guitar. This isn't easily done, considering the only way to get the controller is to purchase the game again or have your friend bring their controller. Luckily RedOctane is taking care of this problem.
This might be one of the funniest eBay auctions I have ever seen. The short of it is this, A dad spends his hard earned money to go find his son the Ultimate of all Christmas presents, Guitar Hero III for the Wii. Well luck would be on his side one day while visiting EB Games. He was able to get the game right before Christmas and couldn't wait to give it to his son.
