@L.C.E.C.

why wouldnt you get the Wii version if you already have 2 guitars? Not to mention the cheaper rice tag and the fact that the Wii version for the first time has all the features of the HD consoles?

 

Hm... well... That's what I was thinking, but Here are the unanswered questions/neutral problems I still have:

  1. Are they going to sell Games and acessories seperate on launch day? Will you be able to play with 3+ guitars if not?
  2. Will DLC Data make eat up my Wii's memory? I only have 90-something blocks left. I would like to hear Nintendo's storage solution, soon.
  3. About Half of my Friends own a Wii, The other half 360's, and a few own both... I'm sick of having to choose which friends I want to play with. I want cross-platform online dammit. I know it probably won't happen though, so this will be a deciding factor...
  4. Is Vicarious Visions actually going to try on the Wii's graphics? I mean, GHIII's graphics were acceptable for a game within the Wii's first year, but with games with graphics like SMG, Brawl, and the upcoming "The Conduit" coming out, why can't a company with pockets as deep as Activision's just put a section of Neversoft developers on the Wii version, instead of having Vicarious Visions do it? I don't want the Wii version to be identical to the PS2 version.

Here are some other problems/reasons to get it for 360:

  1. I have a strange setup. My Wii is in an open room with a bigger TV (with pretty good speakers), and my 360 is on a smaller (but still HD) TV with a killer stereo system plugged in.
  2. My fickle little brother has become an XBOX fanboy now, and wants it for 360.
  3. My brother (which I spoke of above) will be obsessed with the game (that's why he's better than me at it) and I won't be able to play any of my fave games on the Wii (I tend to play my Wii more than my 360)
  4. Some sound or other problem may occur again with Wii version (mono w/ GHIII)
  5. Wii version is Developed by Vicarious Visions instead of Neversoft.
  6. Online better for 360 version (maybe not if we could use the mic to talk on Wii version...)

Good things for the Wii version are that:

  1. Open room, better for Drum kit & 4 players.
  2. Of course, I already have 2 Guitars, but I might end up having 3 if the game comes out only bundled (good only if game supports 3 guitars).
  3. Vibration has a nice effect.
  4. Instuments are Cheaper (less circuitry)
  5. Game Is Cheaper
  6. I like the way the Wiimote fits in, kinda stylish and cool
  7. The Controllers I have contain no problems
  8. From my personal experience, Guitars are less likely to be broken upon arrival
  9. I got a free guitar faceplate for sending 1 of my GHIII games in (still need to send my second one in), looks really sweet...

So yeah, It's still a tough desicion. SOMEONE HELP ME! X_X

Seriously though, Any answers to my questions would be greatly appreciated.

First thing is first though:

Activision, I want some Wii screenshots.
