Jigsaw's Blog: My thoughts on games (and other stuff)

Guitar Hero III Downloadable Content

I know I’ve not had a good review or rant recently, but I’m still playing the same games I have been for the last few weeks; Halo 3, Team Fortress 2, and Guitar Hero III. I did however download the Foo Fighters and Velvet Revolver Packs for Guitar hero III. I was torn about getting them because they are pretty expensive for the number of songs included, but after watching some clips on YouTube I knew they would be a lot of fun. So, I caved and ignored my cheap ways and bought them both the same day. The Foo Fighters Pack contains “The Pretender”off of the “Echoes Silence Patience & Grace”, “All My life” off of the “One by One”, and “This Is A Call” off of the “Foo Fighters.” The Velvet Revolver Pack includes “She Builds Quick Machines” off of the “Libertad Allbum”, “Slither” off of the “Contraband Allbum”, and “Messages” off of the “Libertad”. Having played all 6 songs quite a few times now I’m happy with my $12 purchase. The songs are a lot of fun to play. They seem a bit harder than most of the songs included in the main game, but not so hard that I was not able to complete them the first time through or get 4 and 5 starts on them after a couple tries. I also downloaded the free Boss Battle Track Pack and the Halo Theme Mjolnir Mix previously. All four of these songs are also pretty fun today. The Boss Battle songs are actually quite fun when you’re not having to fight to beat someone while you play them. Overall, I’m pretty happy with the Guitar Hero III DLC so far. Sure, I wish the packs that are 500 points were a lot cheaper, but there are also some free songs so it almost balances out.
