Guitar Hero 3: Bwow-chika-bwow-wow AT&T Java ME version better than BREW version

Here's an article about how with the recent AT&T launch of Guitar Hero 3 (written for Java ME), Hands-On Mobile makes the game better in terms of graphics and the use of the phone vibrator. Bwow-chika-bwow-wow, Rrrrwweahhhhhh. Woo!

Java ME makes Guitar Hero 3 better

Here's a quote:

 On Friday, AT&T brings the portable 
 version of the wildly popular console 
 game to J2ME phones... The Java 
 platform has allowed for certain 
 upgrades to the BREW version of the 
 game currently out on Verizon 
 phones.  The graphics are slightly 
 larger and clearer, and Hands-On 
 Mobile has added a haptic dimension 
 to a missed note: the phone vibrates 
 in response to butter fingers.
The only drawback is it uses MIDI instead of MP3 for the audio format on the Java ME version. But hey, who cares when your phone is transformed into a vibrating air guitar? ;-)
