Guitar Hero 3 (no, not in the wrong tech gaming section)

[bignotoriousd1]

So now not only is GH3 on all next-gen platforms, it is on the Mac and PC as well! Hell this has my vote. With all the lanning I do, it'd be good to have a solid GH to drag around with me rather than rely on uncompleted emulators and unfinished clones that have songs without mp3s. (Which I don't understand. People make stepfiles for SM all the time and package the songs with them, yet the people who make songs for FH/FoF whimper and forbid it. Then you have to get the song yourself and its not the same length or it doesn't start at the same spot then you need to edit it so it does. Bull.)

But without further ado and ranting, here is the article and source on GH3 for the Mac and PC 

GameDaily is reporting that GH3 will be available on Mac and PC this Fall, intended to ship simultaneously with the console versions. The game will ship with a USB guitar peripheral and will contain the same features as the other games do (songlist, downloads, etc.). The only known addition is adding graphical polishes that the game can take advantage of with particular graphics cards.

Minimum specifications to run the game have yet to be detailed.

It's about bloody time, and since it's not being released by Micro$haft it'll work with XP!

I find it somewhat ironic that the PC/Mac version is the only 'next-gen' release to use a wired controller, though

Welcome to rabid fanboyism

Picked it up yesterday, it comes with a Xbox360 (Wired) Explorer, and can work without it by using the keyboard

If I can get it to work over a LAN, I'll install it
