Guitar Hero

Didn't find a thread on this game so I was curious to see if any one has played it? I got it for Xmas last year and still play it. It is one of those rare games where you will actually see an improvement in your skills, finishing songs that previously blew you away. I'd like to see someone make a custom Suikoden GH controller in the same vain as the forum member here put a nice Suikoden sticker on his real guitar.

Guitar Hero II is set to hit the streets in November and that is a day one purchase for me.

Yeah, we sell Guitar Hero and all of the guys I work with are addicted to the damn thing. I play guitar in real life and when I smoked the guys who have been practicing forever on the game in one try, they were pissed. The game isn't very fun for me since I can already play.

My next venture is to try to play real guitar. We'll see how that goes

Yeah, I'm with Pollensalta on this. Something about already being able to play guitar meant I was able to pick it up so much quicker than anyone else in the store. Maybe it's a combination of familiarity and rhythm. However, after playing it in the store quite a bit, I found myself getting bored. None of us staff play it anymore, although maybe the sequel will change that with more options.

IMO Guitar freaks/Drummania games are more versatile and requires more skill. But well, of course most of the composers are only known in japan.

Guitar hero has Megadeth though, that alone satisfies me.

I love the game, even though I don't play guitar. I do play drums, however, which helped me in the rythym and beat stuff. It's not all that hard, converting from the body coordination needed for drums to finger coordination used in guitar and piano.

I just recently set up a display at the store I work at. I don't play any instruments, so I felt like a moron when I was asked to demonstrate it. The first time I tried it I crapped out because I didn't realize I had to flick the 'strings' while hitting the coordinating buttons (real men don't read the instructions

). Once I figured out what I was supposed to be doing, I started really enjoying the game.

I used to play the guitar when I was a little younger, so I picked it up fairly easy. I was trying out some songs on the easy and medium setting, but they were just boring. The game started to be fun when I went straight to the hard and expert modes. Expert mode is just insane!
