Guitar Hero III

1. One of the rippingest fucking games in existence, with the point of the game to do just that: shred it up.

2. The guitar game for people who otherwise have no skills at playing an actual guitar.

Jimmy thinks he's a rockstar in Guitar Hero III, but he can barely beat Raining Blood on easy. What a tool.

Guitar Hero Syndrome 

A mental illness that usually appears in pre-adolescent boys who have not yet developed musical tastes, after they have first played Guitar Hero. Symptoms include the notion that they can play guitar (even though most have never actually seen a real guitar), only listening to songs from Guitar Hero, not knowing the history or even the names of the band members of the bands those songs are from, lumping all of Classic Rock, Hard Rock, Heavy Metal, Alternative, Punk, etc...into just "Rock" (and not knowing what any of the genres are in the first place), and the belief that they will gain enlightenment/go to heaven/become operating Thetans/whatever if they can play "Through The Fire And The Flames" on Expert.

Remedies may include forcing the subject to go and listen to music not included in Guitar Hero, and for the love of god, keep them away from DJ Hero.
13 Year Old: (Listening to Jimi Hendrix)

Older Brother: "Oh, I didn't know you liked Classic Rock."

13 Year Old: "What's Classic Rock?"

Older Brother: ...

13 Year Old: "Well, Jimi Hendrix is a pretty good band, anyway..."

Older Brother: (Facepalm)

Older Brother: (Later) I think my brother suffers from Guitar Hero Syndrome.

Paul: Sucks man.

Guitar Hero 3 

The third (full) installment of the Guitar Hero series published by Activision. No longer devloped by Harmonix, it was done by Neversoft and they did it well. The Interface is a bit different than GH 1 & 2, but you get used to it after an hour or two of playing. Also there are cutscenes. Badly animated ones, but there nonetheless.

In my opinion has the best soundtrack of the three games, (ill show that later)Co-op career mode, and the new Battle mode where instead of Star power you get Power-ups to "attack" your opponent with. Its pretty much like pro-face off on different difficulties, except it doesnt keep score.

There are also boss battles with Tom Morello, Slash, and the Devil (Lou). You have to make them fail using the various power ups by the end of the song. They dont miss a note unless you attack them, so its difficult.

Last but not least, Activision apparently heard their fans and decided to put the long-awaited "Through the fire and the flames" by Dragonforce as a bonus track. People were ecstatic (I know I was. If your on expert, once you finally pass the intro your home free. dont worry.)

Long fans of the series will love this game, people who have never heard of it will love it. Buy it, its great for parties ;)

Guitar Hero Effect 

The phenomena which occurs after desperately trying to either pass or 5 star a song in Guitar Hero / Rock Band / or any other music game.

After trying for what seems like ages, then giving up for an extended period of time (usually when a new Halo/CoD comes out or something). You return to the song and easily complete your objective.
I could not for the life of me, 5 star Free Bird. I gave up and played Halo 3 for a few weeks. I came back Guitar Hero Effect came into play and I easily achieved my 5 star.
