Poll forthcoming.

RedOctane wants to know which version of Guitar Hero III to send.

I'm torn.

I'm saying the wii based on the added functionality with the wii guitar.

Different company entirely, sir. I shall endeavor to have Harmonix send me that, but they've nothing to do with Guitar Hero III. :p

360. Gamer points. No, seriously, I don't care about gamer points. My son does.

That's kinda the point. :p

But on a serious note, I voted for the 360 version for two reasons - first, if you're only getting one copy sent, better to choose one of the two versions that will be most similar rather than the outlier, and second, I have a feeling that the attach rate will be higher for the 360 than it will for the Wii, since there will be a segment of the population that will pick up the disc only without regard to the new functionality of the wireless guitar.

The 360 version is the one I'd probably rather play online, but I have a feeling that I'll snag that one whether or not RedOctane sends it to me, just for Xbox Live.

I'm kind of leaning towards the PS3 version for that reason - if they're gonna send me one, it might as well be the one I probably wouldn't have picked up out of pocket so that I can try both versions.

I'd say Wii because I have a Wii... but also because we've seen the PS2/PS3/360 Guitar Hero already. I'm curious if the Wii-mote adds anything.

Is there anything extra with the Wiimote?

Otherwise, the line of reasoning to pick the PS3 one seems sound.
