Right now it's on sale at Best Buy for $39.99 this week only.
Looks like they took down the $15 free gift card deal for purchasing it online, though. Glad I took advantage of it yesterday at the store!
The fact that I got it, plus a $15 gift card, for $19.99 (I used a $20 gift card I already had) made it that much better.
Fans of the GH series and those that grew up with 80's rock will appreciate it much more than newcomers/casuals to the game and/or those raised on 90's grunge.
Given that, the casual gamer/GH player may want to wait for it to drop to $29.99; whereas the diehards would have no issue with paying more because it's still "Guitar Hero" and would get more enjoyment out of it.
It is worth it if you are a fan of GH. But if you don't get into it that much, wait until it goes down it's first drop or until you can find a used one. It's just like GH II with fewer songs. But the 80's overhaul is fun.
Bought it. Already beat 21 of 30 on hard and 11 of 30 on expert. I wasn't too jazzed about I Ran or Turning Japenese but those are both actually quite fun to play. It was well worth the money I spent.
I'm a huge fan of Guitar Hero, enough to have all three official guitars. But I can't turn a blind eye to Activision's cash cowing of this game. Even if I liked all of the songs listed I'd still be hesitant to spend $70 taxes in for 30 songs.
The lower review is to be expected. I mean are there radically new additions adding a whole new depth of game-play? Has game game dealt with all of it's predecessors flaws?
The answer in short is no. This is why sequels don't very often get as much praise as their original, because they don't deserve it. With every additional sequel that also fails to improve upon it's predecessors beyond what a modding fan base could of done themselves the reviews of all will further decline bringing about the end off the now franchise.
That's my two cents.
