What...the...f*ck...was that?! I'm rubbish at those sort of games where you have to match a sequence on screen, absolutely rubbish, it's like dancing with three feet and all of them are left... But bloody nora!

Hellsing, why do you have gingerbread man raping a rice patty as your avatar. I think you should seek sexual counseling my friend.

It's five buttons....

It's five buttons.... As you know already know, I'm a guitarist, and not one that just plays power chords. This may only be five buttons but it's going to be EXTREMELY hard to play that, at all. I can guarantee you most people won't be able to get 10 seconds into it on Expert.

It's five buttons.... Logic would say it's easy. Try playing it. It's hard just using 4 of them starting off. It's seriously nothing like guitar, it's way harder. Dragonforce FTW.

Psh, real guitar doesn't have sh*t on Jordan or Hangar 18 on Expert. Real guitar is for pussies.

Psh, real guitar doesn't have sh*t on Jordan or Hangar 18 on Expert. Real guitar is for pussies. Yeah....because playing a video game is very creative.

Playing a guitar is blatantly harder - even though I've never done either - just because there's so much more to guitar than twanging, you need to understand music, how to read it, hear it and so on. Whereas Guitar Hero, while fun for those that dig it, is essentially just bashing away at a few buttons at the right time. It's just timing, rather than musical understanding, and for that reason, real guitar is harder I'd say. But I'm an outsider on both, so whatever, but that's where I stand on the issue...because you were all so blatantly gagging for my opinion on this!

[CoinReturn]

I guess the forum's sarcasm detector is broken. Obviously playing real guitar takes a hell of a lot more skill to be good at.

[MinionZombie]

lol, wasn't referencing you in particular, but I have heard people online elsewhere say real guitar is easier, so that's more what I was addressing. But ah, ya see, that's the trouble with sarcasm online...hard to read...perhaps we need a new HTML tag?

GREAT GUITAR WORK!! but i wanna see them put war machine on the next edition.

[Danny]

actually guys all the guys i know who play guitar, adn by that i mean play well. cant play guitar hero 2 veyr well at all, its much more akin to a dance mat crossed with a keyboard than an actual guitar, and a real guitars more about memory and feeling ,this is more a test of reaction times to a tune.

[MinionZombie]

But the key point being, are those guitar players who suck at Guitar Hero 3 any good at any of those button sequence games? And most likely, you put a toy guitar in a guitarist's hands, but their hands are going to be in real guitar mode, rather than 'step away from air guitar' mode... Mind you, a guitar is a noiiice peripheral.
