Red Octane declares two Guitar Hero II axes defective {Engadget}
Apr 8th 2007 5:47PM I've been wondering why it seemed like the whammy bar took too long to take effect on my model 95055 axe. I've been missing out on vital Star Power.
USB Guitar Hero II controller for 360 works in Windows {Engadget}
Apr 6th 2007 6:16PM And on the other side of the coin, you can use a standard Xbox360 controller to play Guitar Hero II.
Unfortunately it's not a very practical solution.
