i concur with frostmoon. that shit dont make sense to me. i mean, its a nifty idea, but it wasnt pulled off in the right way. i picked it thinking, hey, i play guitar, this shoud be simple. so i chose war pigs, b/c i know how to play that one, and i started it up, and it was immedialty wrong. i didnt like it. if there were six or eight buttons, representing either strings or notes, then *maybe* it would be cooler.

I agree with Thrashhard, more buttons, actual frets, playing it like on an actual guitar would of made it, a actual learning device, not just a dexterity device.

guitar hero is about four years old. It was never meant to be a guitar simulator, its more of a rhythm game, such as dance dance revolution. Being good at DDR means you really suck on the dance floor (only of course if its the only moves you know). Same with this game. The creators never made it for guitarists, they made it for family/party/fun situations. I mean yeah im pretty sure guitarists could pull of most of the songs off in the game and play it on a real guitar, but actually learning a song is tedious (freebird). It was made to be a game and not a learning device, even though the game itself had a dexterity effect to it.
and is an old game that you hook your guitar up to a computer and play.

OK...lemme just say this...big fan of this game....not only did it make me slightly better at guitar but also got my left hand more dexterous for keyboard applications as well....as for learning how to play an actual guitar it doesn't help a whole lot but it does help with dexterity and that in turn can help with guitar or anything else i.e. left hand masturbation, keyboards, typing, and so on...also guitar players are not more inclined to be good at this game...I can wipe the floor with chris on some guitar hero...only person that might be able to beat me is Skuz from DSA...never played him but i know he entered a competition, came close to winning and lost to some japanese kid.

way to go Ian, beating chris, bet thats an effort, maybe you should get with Skuz and try to beat him, then take on that japanese kid.
