These games are so incredible over rated. Get a real guitar.. Spend half the time you do on rockband/guitar hero with it and you'll be able to actually play. It will pay off much more than bunching stupid plastic buttons.
EDITED OUT.
Why don't you go pick up a real sword or axe or gun, spend half the time you do with Diablo II and maybe you'll learn how to use them too!?!?!?

I just stated my oppinion and you tell me to fuck off? How bout you get a life?
There is a huge difference between weapon mastery and musical mastery. Thank you for making your worthlessness apparant to me once more. I haven't fucked with you in a while and now you've gone and been a douche bag. Kudos on that! Now go make another thread about how everyones picking on you and mommy isn't here to help you, I'd love to see it again.
I'll explain why I like it. It's simpler then playing an instrument. I've played a lot of instruments, got good at a few (my dad is a music professor, it's unavoidable). Yea, basically it's easier then an actual instrument. I feel I've attempted and am attempting enough instruments that I can play an "instrument" when I feel like playing an instrument, but without the stress of having to actually try.
Ok.. I'v played guitar hero a couple times and here's what happened:
My friend got so into the game and so out of touch of reality he actually drooled on himself. That's just pitiful. I play games so that I can lose myself in them but at the same time I keep touch with reality. I really don't mind the people that play it except for the annoying little kids who get all excited about it and think they are the shit when they have a plastic guitar in their hand. Then there's the morons who think it actually helps you learn to play guitar. All I have to say to them is, no..
I just stated my oppinion and you tell me to fuck off?
Exactly. Your opinion is retarded (I seirously don't care if I'm being biased here ;)) I'm tired of hearing the same thing over again. It's not about comparing a game to reality, it's about how well the game is made, the ideas and the features.

I'm not living my life right now? OMG!
In other words, I hate that statement.

Between them two masterys there are a difference, but if we're talking about learning the thing in real life then there isn't.

Nothing much to say except lol. As harsh as I am, I'm tired of people like you bullshiting Guitar Hero III with the arguement of "go pick up a real instrument".

I don't remember such a time sorry
I admit my assholeness and harshness in my comment, but you diserved it. Along with every other Guitar Hero III hater that their arguement is the reason of yours.
I will not accept the following:
-go pick up a real instrument (which I already have by the way)
-I suck at it!
Judge a game by the game ITSELF. Thanks.
Lastly - your so called "opinion" came out as if you were saying all Guitar Hero III players are stupid and have no life

The stress while starting a musical instrument compared to pressing buttons on a plastic keyboard is the difference between professional interest and entertainment. Real guitar is professional interest. Guitar Hero is entertainment. Guitar Hero is much easier to pick up and learn. You don't have processes like "fingers becoming more harsh to press the tabs properly" going on.
It's like Soul Calibur. I really enjoy that game, but some martial artist may come over and laugh at me because I can do real martial arts when I just play a game.
And, yea, chaos. I have changed my opinion. I am a very generative person. I can say one thing today and say a different thing tomorrow and consider my position neutral and exact both times.
I truly hope you realize your statements are completely retarded. Someone disagrees with you so you tell them to fuck off? I truly would have no problem with your age if you would act it. You weren't harsh. Harsh is a word to describe a punishment in which you put on someone whom you have authority over. However, because of the way you act, you are beneath me. Every time you say something you act like your shitting golden nuggets and that everyone shouldbe oh so happy that you typed but really no one could give a rats fuck about it. Also, the sword mastery and things like you are referring to in real life truly only exist for those who were sofisticated and had friendly spars together. The swordplay you see in movies never actually happens in battle. It's a swing here and a chop there and hope you get someone in a good spot. Who are you to say someones oppinion is retarded? Oppinions are never retarded because oppinions are never right or wrong. You say it is retarded because you don't agree with it and my oppinion was not condescending or hateful in any way. You need to grow up and learn in the real world people don't crap rainbow skittles and sing sunshine fairy tales. The reason I tell you to get a life is because you attempted to slam me and it didn't work because I'm above your level. Twisting it to its literal sense and trying to throw a sarcastic pun at me does not work, it just shows how poor you actually work under pressure and how desperate you are to sound intelligent. I did judge the game by the game, if you didn't notice. I have played the game. It seems to be mindless. You stare at the screen pressing the buttons it tells you to do. That doesn't require any thought process at all. That's like the color matching and "what sound does a cow make" games kindergarteners play. Now because all you will do is come up with some childish way to twist my words into something incoherent and then try to come back with something just so you can grab on to whatever negative attention you can get(Because your parents obviously dont notice you enough) then I would like to say that this thread needs no more flood. And this time Equinox won't be here to ban me for your sorry ass.

As much as I loathe that wretched game, Equinox is totally right. You don't walk up to someone playing Call of Duty 4 and demand they might as well go off and join the military.
There's a difference between the two genres though. Equinox is right about the stress but, really, learning an instrument isn't that hard. It's just time consuming and you can learn it a lot faster than you think.
Ok, the game is sold as music/rythym. The same catagory as DDR. Do you see the words 'sim' or 'simulation' anywhere at all in that, cause I sure don't.
It's a fucking game, ok. I hate the argument "Play real guitar, fags" People don't go up to people playing and Halo and say "Shoot a real gun, fag" or people playing Forza and say "Race real cars, fag" or people who play Mario Party and say "throw a real party, fag". I threw that last one in because it isn't something potentially dangerous, as I have heard that response to that.
Anyway, I do want Rock Band, but it'll take way to long for me to save up the cash with all the other things I need to get it anytime soon.
And this time Equinox won't be here to ban me for your sorry ass.
I can ban you just for that statement since it's provocative against moderators; seriously, what are you playing at?
Testicle, your opinion is "this game sucks". Which I agree with. But you cannot say that the game sucks because it simulates a guitar. It sucks for other reasons (simplicity, arcadishness, etc.)...

I tried to learn guitar. Didn't work for me. Just got kinda bored.

Well when it comes out, if I started with $0 (unlikely), then it would be 3-4 months.

If it's any consolation, many popular guitarists get spittle all over themselves.
It's the decisions you make when you have no time to make them that define who you are.
