Speaking of hammer-ons and pull-offs, in addition to hammer-ons and pull-offs being easier to play in Guitar Hero III than in the previous Guitar Hero entries, they have been manually placed on single notes that would either hammer-on/pull-off, bend, or slide, even at a distance apart. The timing for hitting notes has been increased meaning players can be less accurate and still hit notes and this is especially noticeable on hammer-on and pull-off notes. Some changes have been made to gameplay from previous titles.Ĭompared to its main predecessor Guitar Hero II, the gameplay in Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock feels smoother and more stable, and it is much easier to play songs in Guitar Hero III rather than in the previous entries of the series. The game features a more realistic guitar controller.
Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock uses much of the same gameplay as the previous titles in the series.
