1 - Looks good
I can't wait to play some Jimi Hendrix/SOAD. The new drums also look awesome.

1.1 - I played it!!!!!!!!!!!!
Come on, the only thing that makes GH so awesome is the awesome guitar. The game in innovative but it just does not have that guitar hero feeling.

2 - KoRn and SOAD out of the box? WIN
Most modern Hard Rock/Metal is either DLC or not even included. I love hearing new songs but I love even more rocking out to my favorites.

If they include more songs out of the box and the music creation system is diverse enough, this'll topple Rock Band.

Only gripe is I'd be worried about breaking the cymbals.

3.1 - agreed
i was a big GH fan but since getting Rock Band, i've switched sides

while ill still most likely get GH4 and Aerosmith, Rock Band is my new thing

it's going to take GH4 some epic new features and an awesome setlist and better DLC to switch me back...

whats the point of a touch sensitive neck o_o...
if they mean like how hard you press the different sounds... thats completely retarded

plus.. how the hell is this gonna sell? every1 bought rock band already, nobodys gonna dish out another 200 on this...

seriously.. activion milked the GH franchise. once devs make games for money and not from their passion, i see no reason to buy their products. An example of how lazy neversoft is compared to harmonix

in rock band, if you miss a note, THAT exact chord will not play back. However in guitar hero, if you miss one note, it'll just cut off the music, not just that single note. Thats laziness right tehre

5 - no more peripherals
I am not going to buy another music game, unless it is compatible with my existing peripherals. Other games don't make you buy a new controller, so the music ones should not be able to get away with it. Microsoft needs to nip this in the bud before it gets completely out of hand. We are the ones getting screwed. Boycott!

Just buy a real guitar. I've got a decent acoustic for 150 bucks. You can buy an electric guitar starter pack for that price. Chicks dig real guitar more than "Guitar Hero." Real guitar is more fun. Of course, I guess this comic applies to me:

Theres a difference, a real guitar isn't a video game. This whole "play a real guitar" argument is gettin stale.

6.2 - Yeah, you...
and John Mayer. I've also got a decent Acoustic, but Rock Band and Guitar Hero are still fun.

Slightly off topic, I was just wondering if anyone else was having problems with Guitar Hero III's guitar on PS3 vs. the PS2 one. I hit most of my notes just strumming straight down and I feel like if I try and hit more than 3 notes in a row strumming straight down on the PS3 guitar it will not recognize the strum. It will notice it more, however, if I strum up and down. This was not a problem on the PS2's guitar. It's not a big deal, but it does screw up the way I play and it isn't as fun. Anyone else seem to have this problem?

Lol, take it easy guys. I was somewhat kidding! :P I understand it's a game and it's only meant to have fun. Did you go to the link I posted? I was kinda making fun of myself x.x
