Guitar Hero III

I used my N95 for playing Guitar Hero III, and found the controls to be an absolute dream. There are three difficulty settings, and whilst none of them are too tricky to handle once you’ve been playing the game for a while, there are a couple of tracks that can cause a few problems.

There are two game play modes; career mode and quickplay mode, and just like the console version of the game there are Achievements to aim for in career mode.

The MIDI sound is pretty poor, and if you were hoping for MP3 quality tracks from the game then you’re in for a disappointment; despite the poor quality of sound though, the game is still fun to play, and although it may be slightly lacking in some areas, Guitar Hero III is still surprisingly enjoyable.

There are only 15 tracks in total, there’s a decent range of rock music here however, and the game provides you with the opportunity to button bash along to tracks from the 70s, 80s, 90s, and 2000s. Artists include Kiss, Motley Crue, Alice Cooper, and Black Sabbath, and whilst they may not sound a whole lot like the originals; the game will still make you smile, and provide for a pretty entertaining gaming experience.

The game is far from perfect, I did find it quite fun to play however, and was quite disappointed when my battery packed in whilst in the middle of a game, as Guitar Hero III will now no longer load up on my phone.

Guitar Hero III Mobile has not been made over complicated, it’s simple to pick it up and play, and I definitely feel that the simplistic nature of the gameplay is key to the success of the game.

If you’ve got a few pounds to spare and Guitar Hero III is compatible with your phone then you should definitely give this one a go.
