Guitar Hero III For PS3 Not Entirely Wireless

October 6, 2007 | Author: play-beyond | Filed under: Peripherals

If you just couldn’t wait to rock out to Guitar Hero III with a totally wireless guitar on your PlayStation 3 later this month, then prepare to be disappointed. News has emerged that the Playstation 3 version of Guitar Hero III will require gamers to use a USB dongle to connect their guitar to their console.

Wired has revealed this piece of news that more than likely will not go down well with gamers. Wired stated that the guitar for the PlayStation 3 version of the game doesn’t work seamlessly with PS3’s built-in Bluetooth and that this is reason behind the pick-shaped USB dongle that gamers will have to use. The dongle and guitar will feature a sync button which gamers will have to push when they wish to connect the two together.

Guitar Hero III is being developed for Playstation 2, Playstation 3, Nintendo Wii and Xbox 360. The game is scheduled for release on October 28.
