Getting some block-rockin' beats out of the GHIII guitar
Do you remember that whole Wiijing thing? Well, it's been taken a step further with the new Les Paul wireless guitar that comes with Guitar Hero III. As you can see, it lends itself a little more to the whole musical theme a bit better than having a guy twirl a Wiimote around. Plus, it looks like it takes more skill to rock with the guitar than just Nintendo's newest controller.
It isn't our kind of music, to be honest, but the folks in the video sure seem to get a kick out of it.

That's actually a really cool way of taking advantage of a GH3 controller. That definately would take more skill than playing GH3 but still has 5 frets and one "string" to pluck so is not as hard as a guitar with 6 strings and a complete fretboard, so I guess you could call it a "watered down guitar". He must have gone through some trouble connecting it with the laptop and making it do those notes and stuff like that. I agree that this is neat.

Also not my paticular style of music but I will admit this is very cool.
I would like to know what he used to do it. (even though I don't have GH3.)

Some of those people in the crowd are trippin' hard. Either that or it's how you're suppose to dance to that music.. I dunno.

That would not be half bad if that dj would shut up.

It's actually really easy to connect a wiimote to a pc, all you need is a bluetooth adaptor and you can pick those up at any mobile phone retailer for about £20. they might be cheaper in the US what with the lack of VAT T_T maybe about $30?
