We're sure that many of you have been disappointed by your inability to buy a second guitar for
Guitar Hero III, which has already had
enough issues as it is. Fortunately, it seems like that will start to change, as Red Octane is taking orders for Les Pauls on
its website, with a TBA date of March 2008. (Note: We're currently
in March 2008).
Unfortunately, however, the price of the Les Paul is a whopping $69.99. Keep in mind, that's the
official price listed at Red Octane's site.
After some searching, the only place we came across a standalone Les Paul was Toys "R" Us, which is selling the guitar for
ten dollars less than Red Octane. Of course, that's before the $9 shipping and handling fees, meaning that there's probably no way out of a $69 price for the official guitar.
If you want to go third party, you can wait for
Nyko's option (Amazon lists the item at $49.99, to be released on March 15th, although Nyko's website says May). There's also
CTA's Shred Axe, but we have no idea when that's coming out or what it will cost.
So, when it comes to getting another
Guitar Hero III controller, how much is
too much?
