Post subject:  Console gaming - Guitar Hero!!

All I can say is OMFG!!! I am not a huge console gamer, this is one title that I could easily waste countless hours on. Picked it up as a birthday present to myself yesterday. The only reason I put the guitar controller down was it was 11:30 at night and had an important meeting in the morning.

Tons of classic rock songs, along with tons of new catchy songs available right off the get go and many more to be unlocked via the career mode.

This sucker does not require any prior guitar playing experience. Simply hold button on the fret board of the guitar controller (did I mention you play the game with a cool guitar controller??) and strum away on this little switch in time with scrolling icons on screen (ala Dance Dance Revolution). The guitar also has a sensor inside tracking when its tilted up to enable "star power" mode, where big points can be scored.

To make a long story short, if you want a nice excursion away from PC gaming, and have the slightest interest in guitar superstardom, check this title out.

Oh yeah, if I am ever out of WoW for a night or two just know that I'm safe, just rockin' out!! :D

I saw people in bestbuy playing this. Looked kinda fun. Would be cool if you had a few friends to play with.

Yeah I am thinking the same thing when some buds come over this thursday. There's a 2 player mode where 2 peeps can go at it simultaneously but for max effect you'd have to buy another guitar controller. Don't think I'll be that hardcore into it tho.

Well, 3 hours til I can go home and get my garage band wailing again... hehe

I first saw this in one of my guitar magazines a few months back. I guess it was in development when i first saw the box art. I thought it was some PS2 doctored up joke by the magazine. The review on it didnt even sound as if it was a bonifide game. It just stated that you can be a rock star and impress your friends! lol

Umm, wouldn't it be more satisfying to just get a real Guitar?

No cause that would just be too complicated. Too many strings. This is just 1 "string" and max 5 frets.

Btw, I was trying to learn guitar a few years ago. This might help perk my interest to learn again...
