So whats the deal with Guitar Hero II? (360)

LoneWolf121188 · 04-22-07, 06:52 PM

I walked into EB today to buy Guitar Hero II for the 360 and apparently the whammy bar problem resulted in all manufacturing being stopped for the next 3 months or something? What exactly is going on? I thought the patch fixed all of the problems (minus the bricked xboxs).

"Minus the bricked Xboxes."

The answer... was in the question.

^^ hehe...were there really that many? I thought it was a very minimal number?

My friends bars broke on them during a party or something.

Doesn't matter if it was "two." A controller actually bricking a game console is practically unheard of and I'm sure Microsoft didn't want another Sony Lithium Ion/Nintendo Wiimote Strap tradgedy on their hands.

i have yet to have any problem with GH2, and the whammy bar is working perfectly fine for me.

Same here, except for me (I can play Expert pretty well) the whammy bar doesn't feel like it's in the right position

Personally, I'll just wait the three months.
