Guitar Hero III Legends *I* Rock Soon-*ish*

Screw that acoustic guitar you had to practise on in middle school. Guitar Hero is way "funner" according to user experience polls.

Amazon.com: Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock Bundle With Guitar: Windows & Macintosh: Video Games.

Usually this time of the year I would spend a large amount of time in front of a Playstation playing video games with my host brother. He’s in the lucky position, since he possesses a Wii, Playstation, Game Cube, Nintendo something thingy. You name it.

Stuck in Austria, I don’t really have any of these time-consuming but fun-giving (fun-emitting would be the fancy way to say it, I suppose) products. I “only” have a Mac, so what am I gonna do then? I’ll go with waiting for Amazon Germany (nearly and almost Austria) to ship the Guitar Hero bundle (Mac version, preferably) to my house. More on Guitar Hero after the jump…

This also is a great thing to do during college parties parties, isn’t it? Or should I go for the Wii? But the latter wouldn’t allow intense work procedures, because of this huge tractor beam a Wii emits (again, a fancy word)…

One day (dreaming real big) I’ll be able to kick this kid’s but in Guitar Hero. (Nothing says Writers’ Strike better than Guitar Hero on TV shows)

Last but not least, picking on my fellow Apple readers, here is the “Apple approach” towards a user friendly and intuitive Guitar Hero guitar… Plus, this guitar wouldn’t get my pinkie sore every time I TRY (consider the choice of word - Blake, I don’t want to read a comment on that!) advance from Easy to the Medium level that I sucked so badly last summer.

I see it on the wall in Big Fat Apple-like letters: The Guitar For The Rest Of Us ยท via thegamergene.com

Update: I just ordered the Mac version of Guitar Hero III. Via the Apple Store Austria. You probably pay EUR 40 for the “comfort” of using your Apple ID, but what shalls. I want it and I want it badly, so that’s fine.

    Hehe, sorry it’s not Rock Band though.

    And besides, there are lots of other games for Mac http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/mac/buying_guide/ea

    Some of them are quite good, such as BF2142 :-D

    Have fun with it, though. Maybe you’ll be much improved when we meet again. :-D

    Oh, I’ll play on Expert anytime soon, in the meanwhile I’ll do some physiotherapy to enhance muscle formation where none exist. I am talking about my pinkie. So yeah, next time we meet, I’m on Expert. Hm, when do we meet again? (So how much time does that leave? Assuming that by every semester I’ll be able to play one song flawless?)
