KEEP THE SOUNDTRACK WITH THE MAIN ARTICLE

By trying to be "neat" and "sorting" things out, you end up making them more complicated.

The soundtrack definitely should be WITH the main article, not on some other random page.

Jovack 02:49, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

Putting the set list on a separate article is consistent with previous Guitar Hero games, and also follows WP's approach to summary style. It made sense to keep the listing on the page as song news came out and there wasn't a full track list, but now with it complete and non-controversial , it's fine to move it. --MASEM 03:03, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

None of us have the game yet. I don't think Target really released the game early. So please, until Sunday, leave the list AS IS until we ALL have the game in our grubby little hands. Seriously this is getting out of hand. Everyone is acting like fucking savages!!!!!!!!!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Gtrmu (talk • contribs) 03:06, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

Some Sears stores have begun selling disc-only copies of the game early by mistake. And the soundtrack should stay in the GH3 article, due tot he fact that it only relates to the one specific game rather than the series.BreakerLOLZ 03:24, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

The GH3 songlist article is only for GH3. (There is one that is groups all the lists, but I believe that one should not exist). --MASEM 03:31, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

It may be consistent, but it was stupid to do it then, and it's stupid to do it now. The article is a lot less complicated with everything on one page. People type Guitar Hero 3 to find all the info they want. It is annoying to try and find redirects to other places. Jovack 04:04, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

As long as the link is there, they can click once more to find the songs. Also, do note that both when GH2 was reviewed for GA, as well as through discussion in part of the Video Games project, it is highly recommended to keep music game soundtracks in separate articles to avoid adding undue weight on the songlist. Mind you, once the game is released, the timeline stuff in the first section needs to be drastically trimmed, but a separate article for songs within the game is the preferred way of doing this. --MASEM 04:15, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

This is understandable for games where the soundtrack is just meant for background ambience, but the soundtrack is the CORE of the game in this case. Guitar Hero 3 is ALL about what songs it has; I would argue this for ALL rhythm games. Adding the full soundtrack seems pointless to the actual game if it is a first person shooter for example, but in this case, the songs deserved to be showcased as the main part of the game, and thus, kept on the main page. Jovack 06:23, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

But by the same argument, this is also the same as a list of levels in the game, which borders on being a game guide. However, very few believe that this is not appropriate material for inclusion in wikipedia. Remember that we're not trying to show any bias here ; it makes sense in the main article to identify some of the songs that Activision has highlighted as being in the game to give a sense of genre, as well as the predominence of master tracks and boss battles and the like, the actual full list of songs (particularly when you get to the bonus tracks) is just a lot of text that is factual information but does not directly support the article. --MASEM 13:22, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

Personally, when I come to wikipedia to learn about (this) game, I go straight to the songlist. For me, that is all the factual information about the game that I want. Everything about what characters are in the game, what are the venues, etc etc, is all the fluff that I don't want to see, because it has nothing to do with the actual gameplay of the rhythm game. So why don't we have separate articles for: venues, characters, etc. That is what the index at the top of the article is for, to sort the article out so people can quickly and easily find what they want. That is just my opinion, but I believe many people share the same view. 207.210.20.190 14:17, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

I agree that the songs are what help to define the game more than characters and venues (which is why these aren't given their own sections, as they have little impact on gameplay and are mostly colorful skins). However, there is a manual of style that we should be following that suggests when pages get long, we use summary style to move mostly-independent sections out from the main article to sub-articles. Of all the elements in the GH page, the songlist is independent. It is still recommended to leave examples of songs that define the game in the main body to help define the scope of music within the game, but every single song is not going to help emphasize that (particularly with some of the bonus/indy tracks).

Also remember, we are not writing this page for GH fans, we are writing this page for anyone including those that have never played GH, and likely will never play GH, and may know none of the songs on the list, but that they need to learn and understand what it is. A full songlist here is less helpful than describing some example songs that describe the scope of music in the game. Those that want to know the list will still be able to find it, but we have to consider the lowest common denominator when writing WP pages. --MASEM 15:11, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

Steve or Stephen?

What's the name of the guy who performs The Devil Went Down to Georgia in GH3 anyway: is it STEVE or STEPHEN Ouimette?

Because the game setlist says STEVE, but the CD tracklist says STEPHEN. Which is correct? 200.231.177.3 12:53, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

Co-op Career Mode - Encore songs in single player mode?

Does anyone know the situation with Co-op Career Mode Encore songs? Are they initially ONLY available in Co-op Career, and once cleared can they then be played in single player/quick play etc? Could this info be added to the Co-op Career Mode section once confirmed? Wilboss 13:08, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

Yes, once you and a partner clear it in co-op career it becomes available in solo mode and practice.Bobert1358 13:36, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

Slither by Velvet Revolver

Why is it in the CD soundtrack but not in the game soundtrack? Is this song the guitar battle with Slash? -- FishStik

No, the battle with slash is an original recording by Slash. We're just guessing Slither is going to be DLC.

Bonus tracks

Anyone knows if there will be some kind of reward if beating the bonus tracks?? I mean, in GH II (I have the 360 version) there wasn't any kind of reward for playing the bonus tracks. No money, no characters, no scenarios... It would be a good addition to GH III to give us some kind of 'present' after beating the bonus tracks in each difficulty. Or money, anyways. There isn't nothing in GH II that makes me play the bonus tracks again (although I play them because I like 'em), and this should be the solution.

Take a look at the XBOX360 achievements... there is nothing that hints at anything extra special. Play for your enjoyment.

Bonus Tracks mean bonus tracks for a reason; no reward. Doshindude 15:00, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

One could argue that the bonus tracks are the reward. Jmoney2008 15:58, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

Other than the acheivements for beating Through the Fire and Flames on Expert and beating/five-starring every song on a certain difficulty, no. 74.106.84.19 15:18, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

GH3 Wireless Guitar for 360

As has been mentioned the picture is not correct (assuming most of the Les Pauls are white). Also, you may want to add that according to GameStop the 360 wireless controller IS NOT compatible with the plug and play charger... I would cite this but I cannot access Gamestop from my work machine. Donuthead36 19:33, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

The picture is correct, it just has a white faceplate instead of the black that it will come with. 207.210.20.190 19:59, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

The Devil Went Down to Georgia/ Lou battle.

On the setlist it says Guitar Battle against Lou, then the next song is the devil went down to georgia. The guitar battle against lou is the devil went down to georgia, so should somebody chagne that? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bigmonkey94 (talk • contribs) 20:08, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

The Devil Went Down to Georgia playable in quick play?

So far I have heard The Devil Went Down to Georgia is not available in Quick Play mode, Is that true? Will it only be playable in career mode —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bigmonkey94 (talk • contribs) 20:13, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

I think it is available in quick play, but you have to battle Lou every time. There is no separate note chart for it in single player. Just like the other 2 boss battles. Stxbomber191 21:19, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

It is not available in Quick Play, only in Career (and it's Battle Mode). TwilightWeapon 21:45, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

I think you might be able to play it without having to battle Lou. You shouldnt say something if you dont have actually proof. 71.7.106.244 00:14, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

Guitar hero 3 release?

Sorr i swear last question, i doubt anyone will know but i am going to a gamestop to get guitar hero 3 for my pre-order and they said they will open at 11 pm, i thought it was 12 am why is that. they also said that they will be doing "fun activities" at 11 pm? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bigmonkey94 (talk • contribs) 04:44, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

Guitar Hero III Midnight Store Opening Locations

Best Buy is opening a bunch of stores at midnight tonight for the GH3 release. You can see a list at http://www.bestbuy.com/GH3. Not sure if that's something that should be included in the article since on one hand it's a blatant advertisement for Best Buy, but on the other hand I think a lot of people could be interested. I figured if I post it here the editors for this page can decide if it's appropriate. LouPanic 19:11, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

A midnight launch may be notable, but that's more a wait-and-see issue. (It's nowhere close to the level of, say, Halo 3 or Windows XP) --MASEM 19:33, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

PC and Mac release

I recently emailed Aspyr Media about the current release dates for mac and pc.

" Hello,

The release date for GH 3 PC is going to be Nov 12th and the Mac version is set for Dec 10th. The PC version is already in pressing and will only be delayed if there is a serious printing error. The Mac version is still in development and the release date is subject to change.

Have a nice day, Aspyr Tech Support "

Velvet Revolver is not on the main disc to my knowledge (i've played through the game in easy, medium, and hard and bought all bonus songs) but saw a commercial today (http://youtube.com/watch?v=-ILs__bqfOQ) so i think it might be coming for downloadable content (Aaron Esposito 19:23, 31 October 2007 (UTC))

PS2 Guitar

Will the PS2 guitar for Guitar Hero III have the detachable faceplates and the detachable neck? 71.7.106.244 03:16, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

RedOctane screws over Wal-Mart customers

This should be mentioned, as a good number of 360 and PS2 bundles have the wired controllers that were featured in GH2. With the pre-release confusion whether or not 360 was going to ship with a wireless controller or not, many customers assumed that a wireless guitar was not released on the launch date. The walmart package does clearly state that there is a wired controller in the box, however it does not indicate there is a wired option available.

Only people who are absolutely in-the-know will be aware that multiple packaging exists. Very shady.

Note that the wired units are Wal-Mart exclusives and that the wireless are online only (same link). This should be reflected in the article, as I don't think there were any official announcement about wired controllers. Socby19 03:49, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

I talked to the Assistant Manager at my local EBGames and they said the new guitars are not schedualed to come out until Febuary 28th.--§ Eloc § 03:50, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

Ask again because Circuit City and Best Buy have them in-stock in the brick and mortar stores. Note that I listed that Wal-Mart wireless controllers are online only, and wired are "Walmart exclusives" meaning that they are only getting them. Which, in turn, would certainly hurt WM sales. If wireless guitars weren't scheduled to hit shelves until February, Activision would have pushed the date back. The fact that you're in Canada may have something to do with it. Socby19 03:57, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

This is probably notable, but we need more than score hero forums and a digg link to them, and personal experience to be able to include this information. (Also be careful if you hit a page conflict when editing text pages, you don't want to lose comments when you do so) --MASEM 04:03, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

Hopefully, one or both will release some sort of press release. Is a story from Engadget good enough, or is that just like copying and pasting the original source? Socby19 04:12, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

It might be, if it's doing more than just quoting/citing the scorehero forum. Likely tomorrow morning there will be some more news. --MASEM 04:15, 29 October 2007 (UTC)? Socby19 04:23, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

Wait, wouldn't the "Walmart exclusive" for old wired, and "Online only" for ALL wireless (PS3 and Wii) tags on walmart.com be enough? Socby19 04:38, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

Walmart is screwing over customers!!!!

Walmart in Noblesville and Indianapolis Indiana are selling wireless guitars for the PS3 only at their stores, not just online. Krazy lover boy09 13:33, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

They are all wired in Texas, although the guy at the counter told me that it was wireless inside the box but they had misprinted the packaging due to the late release of the wireless controller. Shady. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.11.212.226 (talk) 16:28, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
Fair enough, not all Walmart stores, but a good number of them are. Now that I think of it, I might have read a statement that had some PS3 and Wii games on the shelf.Socby19 17:46, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

I know that when I went to Wal Mart and got my GH3 at midnight, they had wireless controllers for the Wii, but one person in front of me walked away with the 360 version, which had the GH2 360 guitar in it. Sucks for them :\ --ZacLOL 22:14, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

Major Technical Issue with Contacts In Detachable Neck

Why isn't there a mention of this in the article? Across the guitarhero.com, IGN and GameSpot forums, people are widely reporting that the 360 and PS3 wireless Les Paul controller has fret button and tilt sensor issues. On my own 360 controller, the green button and tilt sensor were screwed up until I cleaned the neck contacts with alcohol.

I think this issue is widespread enough to document here. KyuzoGator 15:15, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

Playing with a pick not possible in GH3?

Just an FYI: Players who used a pick (plectrum) for the Harmonix GH line will be eternally frustrated trying to play GH3 due to switch bouncing oversensitivity. Any confirmation/fix from Neversoft/Activision? 68.33.148.172 17:30, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

My controller is perfectly fine, no problems right from the start. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jovack (talk • contribs) 21:09, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

My controller is too, I'm talking about GH3, not the actual controller, which works fine on the Harmonix-coded games. The game reads the middle setting of the strum selector as a strum. Makes it impossible to play for those who use a pick. I assume Activision/Neversoft will be addressing this issue. 68.33.148.172 06:59, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

The issues I outlined with the wireless Les Paul controllers are real and apparently very common. I'm not able to research sources right now (and I don't know how to add the "citation needed" tag), can someone help? KyuzoGator 20:09, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

• Okay, I see someone removed the Technical Issues section I created (with a citation needed tag) because it was unsourced. Considering that the technical issues are quite real and well-documented across several gaming message boards, I'd like to know how we should approach this. Do we have to wait for a major site to post an article we can cite before we can include this information in the Wiki article? These technical issues are a significant part of the GH3 launch and need to be included somehow. Ideas? KyuzoGator 22:41, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

It's a tricky issue. We are to remain unbiased on WP, and thus some people seeing anything that looks like a POV issue should be removed on sight, but I think what you added was fairly written, with only the lack of a reliable source (boards can't be used unfortunately); the fact you added the cn template at least should have suggested that this was coming.

We know this needs to be added, but we're tied until we can get the source for it, and (just RSS checking) nothing yet has come through. I would say be persistent and keep looking as once you find the right article, you can add it. This is the same with the Wal-Mart controller issue; all the articles point to scorehero so it's not reliable so we sorta have to wait on that. --MASEM 22:49, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, I've looked all over and I can't find a sourceable article yet. I did think what I wrote was NPOV and I've found literally hundreds of complaints so far about the performance of the controller on message boards (which I agree are not valid sources for Wiki). I'll keep at it, I'd like the other people working on this article to try to do the same. KyuzoGator 22:53, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

I think based on what I've read this morning from RSS feeds that the law of the game article is sufficiently reliable to be used as a reference to describe the problem with the necks, but we should strive for even a better source. Also make sure that you include the fact that "no official word from Activision or RedOctane or Neversoft has been released yet" (or some wording to that extend, implyng that the issue is still open). --MASEM 14:22, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

Multiplayer Co-op mode

Methinks it might be worth a mention that the XBox 360 version of the game was updated to include a co-op mode in the standard multiplayer menu on the day of the game's release. Not sure if the PS3 version has the same update. My friend who owns the PS2 version was remarking about the absense of a quick play co-op mode, complaining that you essentially had to use the co-op career mode to play cooperatively. I went home to double check on my 360 version and found there was a co-op option under the multiplayer menu.

Upon watching a GameSpot video review, they mentioned that the feature was added the day of the launch via update (though I don't remember running an update for the game... though it could've been someone else in my house). Just figured I'd see if it was worth a mention in the article somewhere.

EDIT: Found a link about it from the 1Up site: http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3164008 I'm guessing not a valid referrence per se, but just to clear up what I'm talking about.

Technical Issues

Ok,I get most of the technical issues but can anyone explain this: "Other users have reported that when a real guitar pick is used to hit the strum bar, a double strum is registered." Are people actually using a pick to strum the strum bar? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.7.168.44 (talk) 19:58, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

Read the discussion "Playing with a pick not possible in GH3?" above. And I hate to bust out the sarcasm, but do you think anyone would notice if no one used a pick? There's no stupid questions, but there's the stupid answer all the same. - Louis 167.1.143.100 20:26, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

Excuse me, I guess I was asking is this really a technical issue? The point of the strum bar is to idk, strum it, you really don't need to use a freaking guitar pick to play. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.7.168.44 (talk) 20:31, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

The technical issue is in discussion above, in that it's an issue with the strum detection in the software. It's supposedly a difference in the way the program recognizes the rest point of the strum bar over previous version of GH. There is no verifiable source noted at this point, so if your question had been, "Does this belong in the article," I would've said no. I can't imagine it'll be there for long, honestly. -Louis

• To hopefully answer the questions above, there are lots of "pro-level" GH players who use a real pick to do very rapid up/down strums. Players have been doing this since GH1 came out. It's not terribly common, but seems to be a preference for people who play real guitar as well. The new software has a problem facilitating this, from what I understand the strum click and the return to the center position both get registered as strums (hence the "double-strum" phenomenon). I personally don't play with a pick but there are lots of players who do. KyuzoGator 22:56, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

Why would they tell us?

Why would Activision say all of this great stuff, like Bret Michaels was going to be in the game and the Grim Ripper and God of Rock was in it, if it was only all meant for the PS3 and XBOX 360? 71.7.106.244 22:17, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

Because they wanted to get us excited, and then screw us over. Flamingtorch372 02:37, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

Downloadable Content for Wii

Since the game is out, should we say "downloadable content is currently unavailable" instead of "downloadable content will not be available initially"?Mmark089 17:53, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

Héroes del Silencio downloadable songs

I'm aragonese (spain), just as the spanish famous rock band Héroes del Silencio featured in GH III and, in a interview to the goup due to the ending of their ten-concerts-tour appeared on the Heraldo the Aragón (the newspaper of this spanish state), it's said that the GH III developers are working on more HdS songs that are supposed to be downloadable from the Marketplace soon. Just wanted to say this to you guys. I can't say this is true, but I found it interesting... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.201.66.155 (talk) 18:03, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
