Sounds like you're running Frets on Fire and wanna upgrade from computer keyboards and imagination. I assume, therefore, that you're referring to Xbox 360 controllers, because they're the easiest to install. You can buy Wired Guitar Hero X-Plorer Controllers (The ones that came with Guitar Hero 2) for about 20 bucks, now. Some stores still have them packaged up and on sale. They're all over the internet, too, used and new. I bought mine from a buddy who had a 360. If you're looking to go wireless, you need to spend about 60 bucks- 40 for a Guitar Hero Les Paul (The ones that came with Guitar Hero 3) and 20 for the Xbox 360 wireless receiver for Windows.
For a guitar controller, prices would range around $30 to $50.
Yes, the original guitar works for all of the new releases (so far) including rock band. But, the world tour edition is much sleeker, with the joystick closer to where your hand should be, and a star power button.
Assuming you mean Guitar Hero III ...The "guitar" used for the game is a special controller shaped like a guitar. You cannot replace it with an actual guitar. The controller is much simpler to operate than a real guitar is.
I would look around the area of 415 dollars Australian dollars
for the wii it now costs $50 for the game and 1 wireless guitar controller, other systems though, i have no idea
Uh, there is no Guitar Hero II for Wii. GH II costs $50, $90 including controller
No. I will explain why. A guitar has 6 x (about) 22 fretting points (6 strings with 22 frets) which gives you 132 things to press separately if you press down only one at a time. On a guitar hero controller you have five buttons which result in about 32 combinations if you press ANY amount of buttons. Thus, as you can see, it is much more complicated to play a real guitar than the guitar hero controller. The only thing guitar hero teaches you is how to maintain a certain rythm and how to keep your head if you fretted the wrong note during a complicated solo. Certainly not how to play a real guitar.
yeah, just plug the USB dongle into the computer and hit the home button to connect the guitar. I've done it with mine to play Frets on Fire (pretty much guitar hero on PC with the ability to have custom songs, check it out some time)
Guitar Hero 3 Legends of Rock, is cheaper than when it first was released. Currently you can buy the game by itself, for around $20-$30. But if you want to purchase it with a guitar controller too, it can cost upwards of $100.
The cost of a controller for Guitar Hero can vary dramatically depending upon where one gets one from. Its average cost can vary anywhere from one hundred dollars to upwards of two hundred dollars.
No. But it works much easier if you own the Guitar Hero World Tour band pack.
It depends. Harmonix created Guitar Hero 1, 2, and 80's. RedOctane/Activision created Guitar Hero 3, Guitar Hero: Aerosmith and Guitar Hero: World Tour. You can tell the difference by the graphics pretty much.
