You right GH3's controller has issues with the neck. If you read up on things thats been fix with the new one.
You can have your opinions but still writing off a game based on things you heard from other people is kinda sad especially with the majority of the users actually like the game. Your reasons for not wanting to play GH WT are pretty sad. I've has zero issues with the guitar and its far superior to the Les Paul.
I only slightly take it personal when someone bashes a game they've never played. I dont just enjoy GH, I enjoy RB as well. I'm a fan of the genre and have not problem dishing out money to play them. I own them all since the first and Activison has done a great job with the series imo. But that's all I'm over it.
Its not so much me writing it off as more me deciding does this game appeal to me, does it provide a different experience to the games I already have? The answer was plainly no, with the music not being very different nor being more varied in any way.
Also, how is it sad that I decide "hmm, I don't want to spend more money on DLC for yet another music game, I'll just stick to the one I've got"? I've spent serious money on RB and I didn't feel it necessary to buy what for all intents and purposes is a clone with a few different songs nor did I want to spend money adding different songs especially because I can't use the DLC with each other (obviously, but its still a point).
Put it this way, I have £100 or so to spend on a music game. At the time, RB had just come out for PS3 and GHWT was coming out later in the year.
One game was made by a company whose music game history I knew well and enjoyed, the other by a company whose music game history was short and didn't impress me.
One game had songs with variety that I enjoyed, one didn't. One game had greater amounts of DLC and the other didn't.
I made my decision, I bought RB. Then GHWT came out, now, I did think "maybe I should see what its like" but after seeing previews, reading reviews and finding out the features and tracklist, I easily decided it wasn't worth it
for me. The reasons were mainly:
-I already had a decent music game
-I don't have a lot of money and was already looking at other games (like Ferrari Challenge, etc)
-I already had sunk a lot of money on RB and even though some of the DLC in GH:WT was tempting I didn't want to spend yet more money on a essentially the same game but not the same disc.
-I read the opinions and thoughts on the game and it didn't appeal to me. I remembered GH3 and I didn't like some of the ideas Neversoft had come up with.
I'll admit both games have instrument issues (and they do, you can't deny there aren't any issues with the instruments, I have seen many complaints about broken ones). But I already have perfectly working RB ones and I don't feel the need to enter a lottery getting working GH:WT ones. And in any case, my point about Red Octane being shocking at producing so many bad instruments was more a comment about how they used to be a fair bit more reliable. I was annoyed with EA screwing up the RB ones, but now even Red Octane are doing the same makes me a little less eager to buy more hardware.
Of course, my thoughts on the GH name going downhill are purely my opinion, I felt Harmonix did a better job, thats all.
Would disabling my internet and/or changing the system clock help?
. What things will not transfer when I back up the 60 gig?
thanks for the info though guys:tup:
