I really enjoyed this, but I am obsessed with guitar hero so ya. Though take note it's an "Expansion Pack" rather than a full game so gameplay won't last as long as GH1-3
The only thing that annoyed me was Ballroom Blitz WHAT WAS THAT DOING IN AN 80's GAME?!
Well..... yes I guess that version was made in the 80's but yeah...wasn't made famous by them (maybe it was or maybe it was in Switzerland...i dunno 1984's a few years before I was born LOL) Theres only one version for me. Sweet's in 1973. The original and by far, the best.
Anyhoo..conclusions of this game, GREAT if you love guitar hero like me Though its not as good as the other GH's and does play like a filler game in the sense that the songlist ... Read More:

I'm not going to add anything about the game as the other reviews are spot on about it, it's more of the same but most of the songs are poor or average, I bought it mainly for The Vapours 'Turning Japanese' and The Police's Synchronicty II".
But I can confirm that with the latest update for the Playstation 3's software Version 2.1 of Late November 07 that this does indeed play on it, there is a little bit of trouble with the intro video and you cannot select the tutorial but everthing else seems to work fine, I've played many a song on it and it's great, and looks great too on the PS3. please note that I only played with the wireless Sixaxis controller and not with the Wireless guitar controller for the PS3, but because it works ...

So many people have been knocking this game for the apparent 'poor setlist'.
This is absolutely untrue. The songs on this games are excellent quality and arguably more fun to play than a lot of the GHII songs.
Examples of really fun songs:
Electric Eye
Police Truck
Round and Round
Play With Me
Ballroom Blitz
No One Like You
Police Truck
Caught In A Mosh
Wrathchild
Turning Japanese
The only downside about this game is the limited number of songs. With around 50 on the original GH game, 64 on GHII, this addition only holds 30 songs, and while it's a stong setlist, it means it has slightly less replay value.
Difficulty wise? It's about on par with GHII. ... Read More:

I'm sure if you've played GH1 or 2 then you will want this game. Basically GH is overall, in my opinion, is one of the most addictive and brilliant games ever released.
Overall, with GH games, you cannot fault the basics, being able to pl;ay classic rock tunes without leaving your home, with a superb multiplayer system. However, on this particular installation of the series, the title reads "Rocks the 80's", this game is quite average when trying to fulfill that title.
The gameplay, don;t get me wrong, is superb, faultless in some ways, but the reason I have only given this game 4 stars when it could have so easily been 5, is because the song selection isn't as exciting as the other two installations. I mean; In GH1 you have Iron Man, ... Read More:

If you own guitar hero 1 and 2 You will no doubt want to buy this game for the extra songs, just to expand your repertoir. However, be warned, This game feels as though it is a bit of an interim game whilst the programmers fully develop guitar hero 3. Many of the features of hero 1 and 2 are missing, you can not buy new outfits for your characters, there are no extra songs by unsigned bands on here, and all of the venues and effects have been ported straight from the first two games, which seems a little lazy. Also the track list is not as good as the first ganes (I had only heard of about half of the songs on 80s before).
Having said all this the gameplay is still great fun and it really is more of the same. The whole guitar hero series is ... Read More:
