I havnt noticed because my receiver automatically duplicates mono sound to both my left and right speakers, but apparently the game is ONLY IN MONO. Yeah, thats right, a music game that doesnt even play in stereo, much less Dolby Pro Logic II. If you have surround sound, you will probably only get audio out of your center channel.

Here is the thread on the guitarhero forums:

I suggest you write to Activision customer support so they know that this is unnacceptable.

Way to go, Activision, pawning off the Wii version of your newly aquired gold mine to a third party to do a shotty port. At first it was just the graphics that sucked, but apparently the audio sucks as well. Remind me to avoid any future Wii games that is available on all consoles, cause apparently the Wii will get assigned an ugly buggy PS2 port.

That is because anything from a sony developer that gets ported to a nintendo console immediately sucks. It's been that way since playstation was made.

>.> onoes? Does it really matter? The game doesn't need for you to know which direction sound is coming from, so listening to the music tracks mono isn't a bad thing.

Who'd notice? As long as the game is multi-platform, everybody wins, because they get a chance to play one of the greatest music games in history.
