IGN has finally been able to play Guitar Hero III on the Wii, and it's looking good. I was initially skeptical on the whole "put the wiimote to the guitar and SHOVE IT IT" thing, but turns out it offers a great many benefits. The thing is of course wireless, using the wiimote's machinery for wirelessness, power, detecting which way you're holding the guitar, as well as playing the sound that you get from missing a note from the wiimote's speaker. This could be cool in two player mode, as you'll now know if it was you or the other guy who messed up. Also has some kind of online mode, and is the first GH game with rumble. There's also an analog stick to help navigate the Wii's menus because you obviously can't use the pointer if it's in the guitar. This would be a very nice feature for Gamecube controllers if you're listening, Nintendo...
