Over at Games Radar they have a mini review of the upcoming Drake’s Fortune for the PS3.

Red Octane seem to be making a complete hash of their release of Guitar Hero II on the Xbox 360.  Firstly there was the reported defective whammy bar on certain models of the guitars, which has not been 100% confirmed by them yet.
