Can you return Guitar Hero 3 with the guitar or not?

errrr

Are you asking whether you can buy the GH3 with Guitar and then return it without the Guitar?

If so then no, you bought GH3 with the Guitar and have to return the Guitar as well.

You can however stick a still sealed copy of GH3 up on eBay - having looked at completed listings it tends to go for ?15-?20 still. That means a brand new wireless guitar will only set you back ?15-?20.. bargain!

No I was asking if they would actually take the guitar back and how much would you get for it just incase I seriously don't like the game ( not really a fan of music games but everyone raves about this one ). Also what is this "solus"?

Solus is the game without the instrument (For those who already have one).
solus just means the game without any of the addons, such as a guitar, microphone, camera, dance mat etc.

(Y) Yep, ?33 is awesome btw. As Kick mentioned, it's pretty hard to find it less than ?38.

Sadly I went into every HMV shop in town today, andt he cheapest I could get GHIII was ?59.99 which was actually in HMV Liverpool One. Can anyone confirm that it was available for ?35 in said shops (ie HMV)? They wil not accept it and argue that unless i can prove it was the mentioned price elsewhere they will not honour i:(:(

Then why would you only return the game and not the guitar with it :huh:?

I'm not entirely sure anymore :laugh: I thought he meant to return it and ask for a refund?

You can by all means trade in GH2/3/4 for money without the guitar, there's no problem with that iirc. It might be harder for them to sell on without the guitar though.

Got mine from Speke for ?;) ;)

However I was in HMV in Speke last week and they only had PS3 and PS2 versions out on the shop floor, might be best calling ahead.

It does say not for resale on the non solus game boxes. So I doubt that the bigger game shops would technically take it. You know what smaller shops are like though ;)

sadly bouncy cats will not prove my point. can you confirm or deny the pricing structure Kushan? :p

Sadly not, I've only got access to the same HMV's =P

Did you try the one on Bold Street to see if it was any different?

What's the cheapest I could currently get the 360 for? I presume it makes a lot more sense to go for the Pro?

Well Woolworths was the best place, for ?79 after the 30% discounts. I think all the Woolworths have now shut though? If not, it'd be slim chances still finding one.

Next best is Zavvi, again they will have stock problems most likely.

Otherwise you are looking at ?120+ for Arcade bundles. Amazon are selling the Arcade for ?125 just now.

EdiShopto have them for ?107 but stock is due in

Hmm. I'll try the Woolworths near my college, Zavvi if not.

I have ?140 to get me through the month, and that includes lunches etc.

There's a slight chance I'll wait until I get next month's money so I can actually live, too. Probably ought to've thought that through first... ><

Thanks for the i:)os :)

    • Didn’t Dbrand once complain that Casetify was ripping off their designs a well? seems pretty bad of them to try and get around Valve’s copyright this way with that in mind.
    • Dbrand thought they could get away with this Steam Machine case, Valve disagreed by David Uzondu Image via Dbrand Dbrand has cancelled its highly anticipated Companion Cube enclosure for the Valve Steam Machine, which it teased back in November of last year with a concept render and sign-up page, because it did not ask Valve for permission first before manufacturing the case. According to Dbrand, it took the "backwards approach" of building the product first before asking for permission from the copyright holder. Seven months of work went into the project, requiring over a thousand engineering hours from the design team. Workers developed forty-four sets of injection molding tools, making a unique mold for each sub-component of the crate. When the Companion Cube went live on Monday last week, it, according to Dbrand, quickly became the second-fastest-selling product in the company's fifteen-year history, racking up orders for hundreds of thousands of units. Customers eagerly bought the $129.95 deluxe edition or the bare-bones $99.95 version, which the manufacturer cheekily branded as the "Poverty Cube". It was around this time that the legal eagles at Valve descended on the accessory maker with a formal demand. The developer pointed out that the iconic block design remains protected intellectual property from the game Portal, so unlicensed sales had to stop. Dbrand said that all its pleas to salvage the project with the Valve team, including proposals to run a properly licensed release under official terms "with their blessing", fell on deaf ears, so it had no choice but to obey and remove every trace of the product from the internet. If you bought the enclosure, the company said that banks will process your refund by the end of this week, but if it still hasn't arrived in your account by then, you should not hesitate to contact support. The Steam Machine itself is a high-performance console that Valve designed directly to bring PC gaming into the living room. It was announced on 12th November 2025 (the same day Dbrand announced the Cube) and runs on the Linux-based SteamOS, the same OS that powers the Steam Deck. As for the price, due to the shortage of memory and storage chips, the hardware cost landed much higher than people were expecting, starting at $1,049 for the 512 model (without a controller) or $1,128 with the new gamepad. The premium 2 TB model pushes those prices even higher, selling at $1,349 for the standalone console and hitting $1,428 if you want the bundle.
    • It's listed #399.99 on Amazon, per your link. It's not $299.99.
