Buttons don't register at all and the game is impossible to play. Cycling through the menus works just fine, but as soon as the game begins it all breaks down. This controller, which features a number of extra fret board buttons and an effects switch, does not work with Guitar Hero 2 or 3.
#GUITAR HERO 2 XPLORER CONTROLLER XBOX 360 SWITCHES PS3#
Of note here is that the Guitar Hero 3 PS3 controller can't be used with Guitar Hero 2, even with the disc put into a PS3 that should make it backwards compatible. We tried it on Rock Band and played through roughly 10 songs without any hitches. The Guitar Hero 3 Les Paul also works with everything and also can't be used to activate the Rock Band special effects. For that, you'll need the Rock Band Stratocaster. The only drawback to this controller, aside from its wired status and button placement, is that you can not activate any of the extra guitar effects featured in Rock Band. We tried it out with Rock Band, Guitar Hero 2 and Guitar Hero 3 on Xbox 360 with no issues whatsoever. The Guitar Hero 2 Xplorer controller works with everything. IGN has now tried out the three of them in every situation possible.
That puts a total of 3 guitar controllers on the market.
This fall, two games are releasing that feature their own new guitar controllers, Rock Band and Guitar Hero 3. Taking the plunge is a big investment, though, with expensive and bulky controllers creating a serious stopgap for potential buyers. The rise of the music rhythm game has been meteoric, thanks in no small part to the success of the Guitar Hero franchise on PS2 and Xbox 360.
