hey all,

need your advice... does anyone here has both GH3 versions - Wii AND PS2?
I have both consoles and have bought a PS2 version during the $98 sale at BigW (they have sold out of Wii version by 8.35 am! ).
I love the game but i am contemplating buying a Wii version when it goes on sale and selling my PS2 one... should i? What are the major differences between the two? Is the a rumble feature on a wii one? Is playing online worth it?

another benefit of keeping PS2 version for me is that a few of my friends have PS2 with GH, so i can play with them, but noone has Wii version yet...

advice?

I can't compare the two of them as I only have the Wii version, but the Wii remote does make the guitar vibrate during star power etc and it also makes noises when you hit a wrong note.

I have played a few online matches but as we have 2 guitars I tend to just play against hubby or my kid.

Sorry if thats not helpful.

I have seen both and own the Wii version. IMO the Wii guitar handles a hell of a lot better than the PS2 one. Also the graphics on the Wii are noticeably better (though that simply could be the component cables and a decent TV

Is that confirmed?

Online is cool, depends how often you get together with your mates to play the ps2 version really, i think that would be a lot more fun with two guitars then playing online. I have it on wii, only one guitar

Yes it's confirmed. But a date hasn't been scheduled for Australian players yet. The main thing is the disc replacement that allows for stereo output.

Yes, downloadable content and stereo sound will be available via a disk replacement program. I'd like to see them fix up an niggling issues like menu screen lag etc. Does anyone know if the game runs in proper 16:9 480p?
