Okay, who is hiding in their basement playing this game?

After hearing all the hype, I last minute bought this for the Little Man on Sunday(went to 5 stores). Watched him and his cousin play it on Christmas night....and then Tuesday when Michelle was at work, the Little Man was with mom and the little one was sleeping. I pulled the guitar strap over my shoulder and played a little Motley Crue....

I am laughing as I type this, because for good or bad….it was FUN....and am a little embarrassed to admit it.

I got it for Christmas too. I love it. I have beaten 31 of the 40 songs on expert already. The last two groups of songs get incredibly tough though. My favorites to play are Jessica by the Allman Brothers, Rock This Town by the Stray Cats and Sweet Child of Mine. Freebird is the last song though, and I am looking forward to it.

It's a great game. We play it at college all the time. I must say I preferred the songs on the original more though. impulse, I'm in the same boat as you, especially since my PS2 broke in November. It is reportedly scheduled to come out for Xbox and the 360 in Q1, around March, and then Guitar III is scheduled for Q4.

It's quite a blast, even though I really suck at it.

How can it be all that hard, are you playing the REAL cords/notes T for T????

I know nothing about this game and or most games to tell you the truth...

I get sports/shootem-ups and driving games and never worry about getting past a certain level.
I have had Tourist Trophy for a long time now and all I do is play Arcade mode... and love it...

Santa brought this game and an Xbox 360. We have played the hell out of Guitar Hero and barely touched the 360.

So it's like doing wakeboard tricks on a TRAMP, just a simulation....

It looks like you are not going to learn how to play real guitar using this but you will pick up tempo and co-ordination....
Of course if I find out some kid in tha hood has one I will have to try it out.... or the next time I'm at a store that has it on display...

let me give all you guys one piece of advice...

NEVER LET YOUR DRUNK FRIENDS STAND ANYWHERE NEAR YOUR PS2, ESPECIALLY IF ITS ON A SHELF THATS POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS...

J_DOGG, expert is impossible for me. I have no patience for it. But on the easy setting, any old timer can play it
