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 :)

    • So, recently, I saw on the news (yes, on this website) that Samsung is introducing features where it can provide education using AI-powered sets, and because of this, I got concerned about whether the AI gives out wrong info during education sessions, causing controversies in the process. What are your thoughts on this? 
    • TCL's Bang & Olufsen soundbar is 40% off on Amazon by Ivan Jenic The TCL Design Series A65K is currently $299.99, down from $499.99. That's 40% off and $200 saved on a soundbar tuned by Bang & Olufsen, which is not a combination you'd normally expect at this price point (purchase link below). Bang & Olufsen doesn't typically show up in the sub-$500 category. The Danish audio brand is known for speakers that cost several times more, so having their acoustic tuning on a $300 soundbar is very appealing. TCL handles the hardware, B&O handles the sound engineering, and the result is what the company calls "accessible luxury." Still, accessible luxury isn’t full-fledged luxury, so don’t expect wonders. But this is a decent soundbar, nevertheless. The A65K is a true 3.1.2 channel system with nine physical drivers, including genuine up-firing height speakers for Dolby Atmos and DTS:X. Many soundbars at this price simulate overhead effects through virtual processing, rather than actual hardware. So, you’re getting the real deal. The design is unusually slim for a system with Atmos compatibility. The bar is just under 2 inches deep and should fit beneath most TV screens. The wireless subwoofer is also compact at roughly 14 x 14 x 5 inches. Total output is 460W, and you can connect to the soundbar via HDMI eARC, Bluetooth 5.3, or USB. There are also eight sound modes through the TCL Home app and an AI calibration capability. Although it’s worth mentioning that AI capabilities in most of these devices are inconsistent, to say the least, and that shouldn’t be the biggest selling point. Still, at $299.99, the A65K is a strong buy for anyone who wants a soundbar that sounds and looks noticeably better than what this price range usually offers. And the Bang & Olufsen branding surely sounds nice - pun intended.

    • And he paid Joe Rogan $30M for podcasts. Terrible company.
    • I sure hope the AI does not give out wrong info during education
