Joyswag: Win Guitar Hero III on your platform of choice
We've been feeling generous lately, so we're kicking this week off with another giveaway. This time, we're handing out five copies of Guitar Hero III. Yup, five ...
The well-dressed folks at Best Buy (they put on that launch party, remember?) set us up with three copies on each of the major now-gen consoles (that's Wii, Xbox 360, and PS3 for those of you who've been stuck in a time capsule), and we're giving away the two PlayStation 2 copies that Red Octane sent over, for a grand total of five full copies of the game (we're talking guitar and game disc). So, here's how this is going to work: You'll have five days to leave five comments for up to five chances to win one of five copies of the game.
- To enter this giveaway, leave a comment on this post letting us know which console release you want AND your favorite guitar solo of all time (note: in accordance with federal law, "Stairway to Heaven" will not be considered an acceptable answer)
- You must be a US resident, 18 years or older. (Which isn't very rock 'n roll, we know ...)
- Limit 1 entry per person per calendar day. If you enter this giveaway more than once a day you'll be automatically disqualified, etc.!
- This entry period ends in five days at 2:59pm ET Friday 2/15/08.
- For complete rules you can tattoo up your arms, click here

RedPhaazoid @ Feb 11th 2008 3:10PM
Xbox 360 FTW
also, cliffs of dover, by eric johnson. it's technically one big solo!
thewoj @ Feb 11th 2008 3:11PM
I actually do not like Stairway, and as a guitar player I know that's as close to blasphemy as you can get.
But for the sheer quality of the karaoke air guitar solo, I enjoy the solo in Journey's "Don't Stop Believin'"
Oh, and Xbox 360 plz.
Fox318 @ Feb 11th 2008 3:11PM
WTTTTFFFF NO CELL PHONE VERSION!!!

Anyway I'll take the 360 version if you guys don't want it.
Freebird solo is my favorite.

zelderman @ Feb 11th 2008 3:12PM
I already have this for my beautiful Wii, but having a second guitar would be rad(am I allowed to say that?) I like the guys who learn the Zelda theme on guitar, does that count?
zelderman @ Feb 14th 2008 4:24PM
Am I allowed to enter now. Yahhhhh. Wii - I rather like the song in Bloom by Nirvana.
