I remain skeptical!

Would like to see this catalogue that's for sure!

Yeah I called two BigW's that are kinda nearby (I'm in regional Vic). One said that they usually get games about a week after they are released and the other said that GH3 goes on sale on Wednesday and that she didnt know about the sale on saturday.

I can confirm this sale is definately the real deal. I went into my local Big W & spoke to a manager & she showed me the catalog with the $98 price tag & said it was one day only on the 10th but wouldnt give me a catalog to keep as it wasnt out yet, she said it should be delivered to people before Saturday. I then rang EB & they said aslong as I had the catalog they would price match it or they could ring Big W & confirm the price when I come & pick up my pre-order.

Wow that's amazing! I wonder if they will price match on Wednesday at EB if I go in then... Save waiting until Saturday.

Yeah when i rang EB they they said aslong as I could prove it was on sale on the Saturday they would price match it on Thursday when I pick up my pre-order, so hoping the catalog arrives before then or im hoping the Big W manager will confirm the price with EB when they ring instead. Either way im not paying the $149 i pre-ordered for, if I have to ill wait til Saturday. The manager at Big W also said if im planing on buying it Saturday to arrive very early as they will sell out for sure.

Ill still get it from EB but only if they price match on Thursday, I also got to work Saturday but luckily I can pop out just before 8.30am if needed to pick this up, this is too good to miss out on.

Wow. Big W is going to packed with wannabe rockers

..I'll be there ! $98 is madness, can't miss a chance to save $50 on the funnest game this summer.

Though.. something just crossed my mind. I remember reading a thread on my360, that in America, Wal-mart sold GH3 games bundled with the previous versions guitar.. so maybe its only that cheap because your getting a guitar hero 2 guitar? I'm not sure.

I'm choosing to miss out.
I want this game way to badly to wait a second longer than I have too...I'm just that metal *devil horn gesture*.

Besides with half the population now fighting for a copy on Saturday makes it all that much easier for me on Wednesday

The catalog clearly shows the guitar is the new ps3 guitar. It also says wireless bundle & the GH2 guitar wasnt wireless.

That's all good then, bring on the 10th !

And for the record, there was a wireless PS2 guitar that you could buy, didn't come with the game though, but yeah anyway lol.

It wasnt a official GH2 guitar, was a 3rd party release.

I went into a Big W today & spoke to a manager & she also showed me the catalog, its the real deal. Im assuming this will be limited stock as she said it will sell out quick.

Some guy on MyWii said we get really bad online and linked this site:
www.scorehero.com/

I'm still looking for more info on this.
Does anyone have a 360 as well?
Its confirmed to not be cross platform so we must decide which mates we vs (ps3 or 360 ppl).
I think I'll still go PS3, more mates here are getting it but 360 version is tempting...

DAMN YOU RED OCTANE!!!

Got to go to my GF's mums 50th birthday Saturday night & im at work Friday night so Ill be playing this all day Thursday (day & night) then it will get packed away for a week as I have visitors from South Aust staying & it might be a bit rude to play GH3 the whole time there here, but after that week Ill be up for online most nights im home.

Are the ps3 and xbox guitars compatible? That way you could get the bundle on one and the game on the other.

Not sure exactly, I know they are the same shape & design, damm good question but seeing as I dont have a xbox it wont effect me. Im looking at getting both Wii & PS3 versions seeing they on sale for $98 on Saturday, if the Wii versions sucks Ill just sell it on ebay for a profit.
