Don't be "Paranoid" - Neversoft didn't "Sabotage" GH3

Oct 29, 2007

Oct 29, 2007 Guitar Hero is at a crossroads in its musical career. Its breakout indy release stunned the masses; its major-label debut (GH2) was another smash hit. Then things got a little tougher, with a questionable EP (Encore: Rocks the 80s) and the departure of its famed producer (Harmonix).

Jul 11, 2007

If you were worried by the news that the Guitar Hero franchise has been handed off to a new developer (Neversoft, of Tony Hawk fame), dont be. The songs are new, the visuals are a lot prettier and the guitar-duels are a lot fiercer, but underneath it all, the gameplay doesn't look to have changed much, if at all. It also rocks as hard as ever, as a few Neversoft reps demonstrated by shaking one of the new levels - a huge desert music festival with hundreds of revelers - with a thundering run ... » Read Full Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock preview
