As if the game wasn’t coming out for enough platforms already, Activision announced that Guitar Hero III will be available for both Mac and Windows PCs. The ports are both being handled by Aspry Media, known for porting Stubbs the Zombie and assorted other EA titles to PC. The game is set to come out with all the other versions this October.

So it looks like Mac and Windows people will be able to take on Slash and Tom Morello with plastic guitars now, too. And that can only be a wonderful thing, but one wonders, is this simply another way of boosting sales with Rock Band’s shadow looming near? If so, it’s a decent strategy, considering Rock Band is only due out on three consoles. Also heartening is the Mac love – it’s nice to see that developers are starting to realize just how many Mac book-toting gamers there are out there.

Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock is also due to hit the Xbox 360, Wii, PS3, and PS2 this fall.
