Mgshadowsays...<mouth agape, stupid look on face>
This is good....
stayinalfsays...This kid is a very good player but they should show his hand movement more and not his friends holding hands.
jetakosays...Somehow I'm more impressed by this gamer's performance than I would have been if he was playing a real guitar.

wow, hitting buttons in a sequence, well done...
slimepuppysays...Yes, much like the original song itself is simply a case of 'hitting notes in a sequence'. Different skill-set, both difficult.
I'll never understand the Guitar Hero haters who justify their dislike of the game with the inane comment 'if you spent as much time playing an actual guitar...' Everyone who reads books doesn't necessarily want to be a writer. Guitar Hero is immediately rewarding to the novice and is a lot of (admittedly nerdy) fun.
8266says...in human achievment probably

Well done, though. I like playing a real guitar more.
Edit: In fact: http://www.videosift.com/video/Congratulations-you-scored-1000000-points-in-Guitar-Hero
Selektaasays...LOL, dammit, I saw this a few days ago, but didn't submit it as I didn't think guitar hero videos would be a hit here. Shows what I know
spoco2says...I know that these games are insanely popular, but really, for my game playing dollar, give me something that isn't just learning by rote.
Really... urgh.
I'll be over here playing Bioshock if you need me.
karaidlsays...I'd like to know his percentage and score.
rottenseedsays...so this is one of them new-aged atari games now?
8939says...Yawn..... He missed quite a few notes. For being a popular vid I would expect no less than Perfect! ok ok.... or at least a little better
jmdsays...das3, yea I was surprised that this wasnt one of the perfect score vids you usualy see around, but then maybe theres never been a level quite as hard as this, and getting through it without the game kicking you out is alone an accomplishment. BTW yes, the screen flashed In human achievement 1/4 unlocked at the end.
Considering how dumb his friends look, i'm not surprised at the shoddy camera work.
zoinnksays...I never got the appeal of this game. Why not just spend your time learning how to play an actual guitar?
pipp3355says...100 years from now people will ask "what's the point in playing an instrument - why not just let a computer do it?"
8772says...Why does everyone say you should just learn to play a real guitar? Its just for fun. I don't remember anyone telling me I should just learn how to dance while playing Dance Dance Revolution...
SDGundamXsays..."Why does everyone say you should just learn to play a real guitar? Its just for fun. I don't remember anyone telling me I should just learn how to dance while playing Dance Dance Revolution..."
I'll bet they were thinking it though. I kid, I kid!
Seriously, though, how can people not get the appeal of this? People play Guitar Hero for the same reason people play flight sims: because it would be prohibitively expensive and require an inordinate amount of time and effort to go out and do the real thing. Guitar Hero lets you fake being a "rock star" without investing the blood, sweat, and tears it would take to become a famous rock musician. What's not to understand?
HistNerdsays...So honey, what did you do this semester at college . . .
harlequinnsays...Whoa hang on there. "Its just for fun" implies that playing or learning to play a real guitar is not.
The reason people, usually musicians like me, suggest he should have spent his time learning a real guitar is because we believe learning a real instrument is even more fun than Guitar Hero and definitely more rewarding in the long run. Yes, it's harder to learn. Get your friends to learn too and make a band. Cut three strings and learn like that (look for Jack White's comments on that). He'll pick up way more too (seen any Guitar Hero groupies lately?)
I'd argue you did in fact learn to dance while playing Dance Dance Revolution.
And yes, I will lazarus this...
Why does everyone say you should just learn to play a real guitar? Its just for fun. I don't remember anyone telling me I should just learn how to dance while playing Dance Dance Revolution...
