PS3 Guitar controller question - Blu-ray Forum

obiwopkenobi62 · 09-11-2009, 03:52 PM

Hi all,
Does anyone know if they make a guitar controller for PS3 for GH that has flush buttons like the Rock Band guitars. Reason I ask is because I prefer the flat buttons to the raised buttons. I appreciate any info. Thanks.

I'm not specifically aware of a GH branded guitar that has the buttons sitting in it in that same manner.

Having said that, isn't the Rock Band Guitar compatible with the GH games on PS3?

I have all my GH/RB stuff on 360 (because I started buying them for that system before I ever had PS3, and I really didn't want to rebuy peripherals, so I've continued getting the newer games on that system), and I know that early on there were some compatibility issues, but I thought that there were some kind of updates or something done to correct that so the guitars, drums, etc would have some basic compatibility across both series of games.

If you RB Guitar works with GH, then I don't see any reason to get another guitar if you like that one.

I don't think the RB guitar controllers work with the GH games but I'll check and see. I might get lucky. Thanks.

Yes, both guitars work for both games... well, at least all my equipement is GH and all i play is Rock Band. so i would figure it would work the other way...

Thanks, I'll check and see when I get home. Question, though, do you have switches on your GH guitars and dongles? I have a couple of GH guitars that have switches but the RB guitars do not.

Actually, from what I know, the Guitar Hero guitars work with all Rockband games. But not all RB guitars work with all GH games.
