Nope. Am avaoiding it as I am a guitarist in real life - but half my band plays it - though mostly it's our bass player (who can't play guitar well at all!)

I try and limit myself to a couple of hours a day. May sound like a lot but when you are trying to master medium with that extra tricky button its nothing at all.

I am interested in knowing how a guitarist would find it. As my main problem is keeping my fingers where should be i'm assuming it wouldnt be too much trouble for someone who can play the real thing.

Re: Anybody Else Addicted to Guitar Hero?
Nope but an amazing number of my friends have invested in the kit - guitar drums etc....

Being about musical as a piece of wood without pretensions to be a drumstick, I just shake my head in bewilderment.

Mind you, I do yoga with my Wii so I cast no stones

our bass player thinks it's ... well lets say he is very good
at computer games ... but at getting up in the morning
and doing some actual work ... I need to get a
large pole and insert it where I never did see a sun put it's light


he is nearly close to getting his name on here

I did play GH2 on the 360 until I got bored with it because it became insanely difficult as I progressed.

Then I switched to another game...

Re: Anybody Else Addicted to Guitar Hero?
unfortunately due to several dislocations of fingers i find it very hard work as i can't get my fingers to bend properly and they get very sore after a few minutes ...

Re: Anybody Else Addicted to Guitar Hero?
No, and I hate it passionately for making me look like an imbecile.

(I'm quite a hardcore gamer and like to think know a bit about the industry, after playing games for almost 25 years.
I confidently predicted to my missus and our mates that the current trend for guitar/band games would be a quick flash in the pan and it won't last. And every new release proves me wrong a little bit more
