Am I the only one who doesn't see the appeal to this game?

 

[HC]

I have zero interest in the game. I'm just freaked out at how good that guy is at something that stupid.

I didn't see the draw to the game either, but my daughter bought it and brought it over one weekend and, damn, it is addicting.

 

[KYSportsWriter]

Holy ****.

And the game is addicting as all get out. My little sister got it for Christmas and I steal it from her all the time, but I suck at it.

That was just re-dicka-damn-donkulous.

The game is addicting.. but I can't shell out hte 80 bucks right now to get it. And after continually screwing up "Woman" on the idiot speed... good lord. Dude must not have a job.

I play GH2 on 360 pretty often. Hey, it's the offseason.

Awesome game. I'm working my way through medium level right now.

EDIT: That video of Jordan ... even Zumaya would be in awe. Incredible work. I can't imagine how much practice went into those solo riffs.

 

[HoopsMcCann]

yeah the people who say they don't get the appeal of it are the people who haven't played it

Or a girlfriend.

I'm just happy to get four stars on Freebird.

And even more humbling is this:

Most humbling:



It's not Guitar Hero, it's the real deal.

Forget that ... when is someone going to release Percussion Hero?

Screw whammy bars ... I want some tom fills, cymbal crashes, ghost notes and such.

Fantastic

This is my favorite of the youtube videos. YYZ is an insanely tough song ... he knocks it dead at expert.

Plus you get a plot. Sort of.

Alex Lifeson weeps. Plus the bass line is much, much more fun in YYZ. Hell, try rocking the plywood like Neil Peart does in one stretch.

 

[murciélago]

Agree on most counts. Lifeson probably would get a kick out of this.

 

[StormSurge]

Another vote for the highly addicting & highly fun camp.

Sam Mills, Percussion Hero is coming:

Also, I believe you can play rhythm or bass as well in Guitar Hero II. I'm not sure because all I've tried is lead.

Fantastic

Indeed. But I had a friend in college who could play it spot-on for real. That was impressive.
