I purchased Guitar Hero III and decided I wanted to get Guitar Hero II also since I had played it a little at other people's house. I also wanted it for the ability to play the songs. To me they were both basically the same game. After getting to spend some time wiht Guitar Hero II I discovered that it is actually a good bit easier than Guitar Hero III. This is a good thing since when I went to the medium level on GH III I had a hard time keeping up with adding the 4th button. On GH II I can play it on medium and I can keep up a lot better. I an now working through GH II on the medium level to build my skills for the medium level on GH III. I will use the same process when I move to the hard level.
The game was as expected. Only bought it to keep my friend's kids occupied when they come over. The game was a little overpriced. In my opinion, it is not old enough for the price to be rising. But I was okay with that to keep the children happy.

Like I always tell my friends, this game is way too addicting for it's own good. I got this game about a week ago and are already pretty far in it. I have played more in that periord of time than I have in my whole life with any other game. This game has I think 74 songs which is a really good amount. The 4 difficulties are really good too because they really do range from pretty easy to crazy hard. But you havr to make sure that if you try to play expert that you know how to move youo're hands super fast because you will need to to play that mode. The only bad thing about this game I can think of is that you can't play against or with other people on xbox live. And another bad thing is that you can buy some songs on xbox live, but 3 songs like $6.25 which in my opinion is a real lot to pay for so little amount of songs. But none the less, there is a xbox live leaderboard which is fun, you can see how you stack up against the rest of the world.Read full review
Guitar Hero II The PS2 mega hit comes to Xbox 360 with more reasons to rock than ever before. Everyone should own a Guitar Hero game. If you haven't played it yet, you really don't know what you're missing. The music rocks. Playing with a guitar shaped controller rocks. Jamming with a friend rocks. Did we mention that the game rocks? Everything from the presentation to the gameplay in Guitar Hero II is universally appealing. If you haven't already played Guitar Hero II on PS2, this is a must own game. Even if you already have done all of this before, you may yet find a reason to grab the Xbox 360 re-release. With reworked graphics, sound, new songs, downloadable content and more, this is easily the best Guitar Hero game yet. Introductions are in order. While PS2 owners have enjoyed the Guitar Hero franchise for a couple of years now, this is the first time any guitar music game has appeared on a Microsoft console. The premise behind the franchise began years ago with Konami's Guitar Freaks but didn't grip the mainstream in the US until RedOctane teamed up with developer Harmonix. The two companies put together a special controller to accompany the release of an all new franchise, Guitar Hero. If you haven't heard about it yet, it's high time you came joined the party. Guitar Hero and its sequel have been massive successes financially and critically and with good reason. Who doesn't want to step into the shoes of Keith Richards or Eddie Van Halen and shred some classic licks? We all do. And now 360 owners can join their PS2 brethren in rocking out. All of the songs and sights from the PS2 version of Guitar Hero have made it over to Xbox 360, though they've gone through a bit of a facelift during the move. That means that the praises and issues with that game hold true for the most part. Rather than rehashing old news in this review or explaining gameplay mechanics laid out in previous releases, we'll ask that you head over to the PS2 review if you're unfamiliar with the game. If you need even more of a background, you can always start from the beginning with our original Guitar Hero review. It should be noted that if you own a PS2 Guitar Hero controller, it isn't going to work on the Xbox 360 version. You'll have to buy a new one.Read full review
I've played this game a couple of times on the PS2, and as soon as I heard it was coming out on the 360, I knew I was going to buy it. I play rhythm guitar and some lead on a real guitar. It's got about the same feel as a real guitar. Instead of strings, there are 5 color coded buttons, and a lever that you can pluck(strum) up and down. Is it going to help you get better at playing a regular guitar? Chances are, probably not. But the game is so addictive that I find myself playing it more than my electric guitar! It requires incredible eyes-to-hands coordination. There are 4 different difficulty levels. There's even an option if you're left handed, so you can turn the guitar around and still rock out! All in all, it's just a great and fun game. With downloadable content(songs, gamer themes, etc..), the replay value of this game will take a long, long time to die. PS2 is still selling bundles of guitar hero to this day, and it came out in 2005 without downloadable content. Plus you get to see where you stand on the leaderboards among all of the other jammers out there on XBOX 360 LIVE. Another thing to think about is Guitar Hero 3 is coming out in Fall of '07. From what I've read, it's going to be an 80's edition. GH3 WILL support multiplayer via XBOX LIVE. Rock out!!!
