My Ego took quite a beating last night until I realized that Guitar Hero III on the Wii may need a little Lag Calibration. As soon as I had that 60 milisecond buffer figured out, the game was _fun_ again.
I’m still not sold on the whole “rock battle” thing, but with the lag fixed, maybe it will be better.
However, clanks and clangs of the missed notes sound _awesome_ coming from the speaker in the wiimote. And not having wires: a bonus for sure.
I did have to wear the whammy bar in, however. Strange that.
Other first impressions: The strap is longer so you can finally wear your guitar down where it belongs, and not up at your chest like a tool.
