Guitar Hero 3 PC


Recommended Posts

I noticed the patch improved general performance, but on some (select) tracks there is now some warping. What I mean is, the came freezes (with the stuttering sound and everything) for a few seconds, and when it stabilizes, it warps ahead. It is really annoying.

Just do a google search on "Guitar Zero" (that's a Z), and download the game with the game songs. Haven't played the PC version (i have the 360 one), but I have played Guitar Zero (and Frets on Fire, another take on the same concept), and both run great.

I just installed GH3 for PC but haven't patched it yet. I only notice lagging ( very slight though ) when the view pans out from the stage. For example, in the jail, when the view goes all the way out to show all of the inmates, then I notice some lag and a speed change on the notes. Not too much to worry about but enough to take notice.

Here are my system specs:

Pentium D 2.4 GHz

2GB DDR400 RAM

7950GT 512MB AGP

250GB Western Digital HDD

I am running an Intel? Core?2 Duo E6750 (2.66Ghz), 4GB OCZ DDR31066 RAM, ATi Radeon HD 2900 Pro (512mb GDDR3), on an ASUS P5K Premium Black Pearl / WI-FI-AP Edition mainboard.

It's a very middle of the road system that I built myself and Guitar Hero 3 runs perfectly on it both online and offline, graphically I find it quite superior to the console versions, and for those of you with decent system that are having lag issues, there are in-game settings to correct that. On a sour note, the X-plorer guitar that comes with the PC version of the game kind of sucks, but have no worries, you too can have the sweet wireless Les Paul with the collapsable neck and interchangeable faceplates, All you need is a $29 Xbox to PC wireless gaming adapter, it won't say on the package that the guitar is supported, but I took the risk and it works flawlessly.

There is no doubt that there is a huge PC/Console debate.

And with the newer consoles becoming more of a media center rather than strictly a gaming platform, sadly I wonder how much longer good new games that start in the console market will be available for PC in the future.

Regardless of this, There are alot of us old school PC gamers out there, and it is very cool indeed to see these types of games that challenge the way we game and the way we think about gaming, coming full circle back to PC. I mean after all, They didn't program GH3 on an Xbox or a PS3.

Oh, and some other interesting news I have recently read on the subject. The ESRB website is appearing to indicate that Neversoft's new multi-instrument title Guitar Hero:World Tour, just might be coming to PC also. Although Activision at this point does not have a proper answer to the burning question.. I'll be keeping my fingers crossed and getting ready to wail on the sweet new drum set!!

I lent GH3 for the pc off a friend of mine, and i concluded that it isn't supported by my graph. card. i'm rolling a GF 8600 GT, i know its not then best card around, but it supports most of the games i play...

Now when i start GH3 i get a black screen because of my graph. card.

- I was wondering..is there perhaps a method or way, besides buying a new graph. card. to make GH3 work on the GF 8600 GT???

Please let me know if you know a way!...

I find it strange that the graph. card. of my laptop doesn't seem to be supported to ( GF 7300 Go ) but still it works on that one..ofc its a laptop and you get massive hardware lag..

Well hope someone can help me out with this problem!

    • Wow, throwback.  VERY VERY briefly - but realised that it wasn't the language I needed for the tasks I was taking on.
    • Apple and Tesla trade secrets reportedly exposed following a Tata Electronics cyberattack by Hamid Ganji Image via Depositphotos.com Tata Electronics has confirmed that it detected a cybersecurity incident in some of its systems. The Indian company is a manufacturing partner of both Apple and Tesla, and the incident may have exposed some trade secrets belonging to the two American companies. The World Leaks ransomware group is said to be behind the attack, and it has reportedly posted up to 200,000 files on the dark web, including component designs and specification documents related to Apple and Tesla products. Tata Electronics told Reuters that its response protocols were deployed immediately and that the “incident has had no impact on our operations across businesses, which remain unaffected.” The ransomware group reportedly sent a ransom demand to Tata Electronics, while Apple has launched an investigation into the incident. World Leaks claims it stole more than 200,000 files totaling over 630GB from Tata Electronics. Some database files on the ransomware group’s website are titled "com.apple.factorydata," which could refer to Apple’s iPhone production operations in India. Moreover, some documents reportedly contain material specifications and quality inspection standards for iPhone circuit board components. However, Apple is not the only affected company. A folder found in the World Leaks database is titled "NV36 Chargeport Controller - North America," which may refer to Tesla Model Y components. Additionally, other files in the database reportedly contain drawings related to Tesla’s Project Highland, the internal codename for the EV maker’s updated Model 3 sedan. To support the authenticity of the stolen files, World Leaks has published documents containing footers that read: "This document contains proprietary and confidential information of Apple Inc." and "information contained herein is deemed confidential, proprietary, and a trade secret of Tesla Inc." Cybersecurity researcher Rajshekhar Rajaharia told Reuters that the database also contains emails, event logs spanning several years, and passport copies of employees, including foreign nationals. Both Tesla and Apple have declined to comment on the scale of the incident.
    • Last time I used Pascal was in college about 40 yrs ago, programmed an inventory database for my exam.
    • If they don't sell enough of the 1st gen then there won't be a 2nd gen
    • Epic fail, should've added an eSata port on the back, also if the memory/NVME are soldered then they're hardly gonna sell any, first thing most people do with their Steamdeck is, or used to be, replacing the NVME with a 2TB one. At that price they should, possibly for the first time, offer an installments option, say 24 months, they may sell a lot if they do. I'm sure they would have no shortage of credit companies willing to partner.
