Who else is getting this? Personally I think it will be awesome... With songs available to download off live right from the get go... it should be amazing.
It comes out 4/3 (tuesday) for those that don't know.

This is when it sucks to have a broken 360.
Did you get 3 red lights? If so, there is a towel trick you can do that sometimes helps. Wrap your 360 in a towel tightly, run it for an hour or so unplug all the cords then plug them back in... supposedly it works.

When guitar hero came out for PS2 was a good time to have a PS2. When GHIII is out for PS3, my life will be complete.
I dont have a 360...But, all of you 360'ers...You will soon find out what you've been missing.
Also...I got a wireless explorer and flying V for PS2. They are alot better than the corded SG.

apparently there's a way to get custom songs for GHII on the PS2 if you have the mod chip. i wonder if they'll have anything like built right into the game for 360, where you can take music off the hard drive.

The game is amazing, the downloadable songs will be some from Guitar Hero (The Hits) and I guess some others. But yes it's simply put as amazing.

We (UK) get it next week i think. I have it on PS2 already, but i want the 360 version for the downloadable songs. May need to trade in some old games to get it though, which i've never had to do before (damn you £60 games...).

My friend got this on thursday when we had a snowday and we played it all of thursday and friday and all of today because we got a 4 day weekend due to the storm. My wrist hurts sooooo much. Sweet Child of Mine is my favorite song.

Better graphics
New controller (better fret buttons, some whammy problems, cool shape, has controls for standard dashboard navigation)
better audio out (5.1 support)
New songs
Downloadable content (including song packs)
Might be some more stuff, but that's the main of it.
What are the new songs?
1. "Dead!" - My Chemical Romance (The Black Parade, 2006) http://youtube.com/watch?v=q3KnDvG0L10
2. "The Trooper" - Iron Maiden (Piece of Mind, 1983) http://youtube.com/watch?v=m-reSN0KVXI
3. "Billion Dollar Babies" - Alice Cooper (Billion Dollar Babies, 1973) http://youtube.com/watch?v=fchUH5YCZKc
4. "Hush" - Deep Purple (Shades of Deep Purple, 1968) http://youtube.com/watch?v=L58M88CweFg
5. "Life Wasted" - Pearl Jam (Pearl Jam, 2006) http://youtube.com/watch?v=NoFbDtGo-JM
6. "Rock N Roll Hoochie Koo" - Rick Derringer (King Biscuit Flower Hour, 1973) http://youtube.com/watch?v=3IXe6A3iq7Q
7. "Possum Kingdom" - The Toadies (Rubberneck, 1994) http://youtube.com/watch?v=Dpgh1MSRung
8. "Salvation" - Rancid (Let's Go, 1994) http://youtube.com/watch?v=mg-MrqIjqxo
There may be 2 more i think, but i can't remember them (i googled that list btw).
I like it. My PS2 version will stay at home in the main lounge for my family to play, and this will be more mine i guess.
Two of the models of guitar controller have whammy issues btw, i fixed mine with a simple disassembly and pot adjustment. I'm going to dye my controller black i think. Will dylon work on it? We'll see i guess.

I got the game here is just some of them I haven't unlocked all of them but here it is: JellyUK mentioned some but Message in a Bottle by police, Woman by Wolfmother, Mother By I dont know, Heart-shaped box by Nirvina, Sweet Child Omine by Guns and Roses, Rock this house by Elvis Presely, and Cherry Pie. Those are the ones that I know from my mind. There is about 48 on the medium level which I am at now

Yeah, but all of them were in the PS2 version of guitar hero. I was just listing the new ones for the 360 version.
Some of the best songs were in the PS2 version as well. Only a few good new ones...DLC all the way!!!
