This is your chance to feel like a rock god

I don't care what people say; Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock is amazing.

As an avid guitar player myself, I find Guitar Hero III one of the best imitations of guitar playing out there.

This game inspires teens to start playing an instrument and gives others who aren't musically talented a chance to rock out.

No matter what skill level you have, you can play this game.

Want proof? My mom played it.

With designated color-coordinated buttons on the guitar that match up on the TV screen, Guitar Hero III enhances hand-eye coordination and makes it easy for beginners.

Along with this, gamers get a sense of rhythm and beat as they play each song.

Even though you aren't playing a real guitar, it's fun pretending to play one while you learn the basics.

In addition, Guitar Hero III has an overwhelmingly fantastic assortment of songs.

Players immediately fall in love with old rock classics and modern day hits. I did.

The 60-song collection varies from slow ballads to heavy rock metal. There's a song for everyone.

As if playing like a rock star wasn't enough, Guitar Hero III spices up the show just like a real concert.

This is your chance to feel like a rock god.

Who doesn't want that?

You can get booed off the stage or applauded for an encore. No matter what, the more you play, the better you get.

This game entertains so easily. I would recommend it for any party, as long as one or more people know how to play the game well enough to sound good.

One of the best features of this game is that you can play against a friend.

Two guitars at once!

The perfect game for anyone who wants to jam like Slash, Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock inspires, entertains and teaches anyone who picks up that plastic guitar.
