Game Description
Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock catapults players into the ultimate rock showdown, where shredding through legendary tracks is the only way to prove you're a true guitar god. With a lineup featuring the likes of Slash, Tom Morello, and iconic songs from Metallica, Aerosmith, and Guns N' Roses, this installment amps up the intensity with bigger arenas, tougher boss battles, and a killer new visual style. Players rise from garage band status to stage-crushing legends, mastering challenging solos and intricate rhythm patterns that demand precision and flair.
Designed with the PS2 guitar controller in mind, Guitar Hero III delivers its best experience through the tactile feel of real-time strumming and fret action. While the game can technically be played using a standard PlayStation 2 controller, the full rockstar immersion shines when wielding the signature guitar peripheral.

The game broke records as one of the best-selling rhythm games of all time, with over 1.4 million copies sold in its first week. Its success helped elevate the plastic guitar from novelty to cultural phenomenon, even influencing mainstream music charts.
