I think it helps knowing the song aswell. I like going to Best Buy and playing it there, just to show off hoe good I am. Makes the younger crowed jealouse of me : ), I do that aswell at the music store

WTF is winger doing there? Seriously, they got Antrax, yet not Slayer? Some one needs to go to the game headquarters and show a foot up there hole. I was looking forward to playing Angel of Death, but Caught in a Mosh is okay still

pfff imagine you have to listen to the whole list!

torture, torture I tell you...Guantanamo is like a boyscout camp compared to that.

I dont know 'caught in a mosh' is awesome, 'wrathchild' rules, 'Balls to the wall' destroys and 'round and round' features Warren Demartini one of the elite 80's shredders extraordinaire.

I wouldnt say its all terrible.

They should make Guitar Hero 80s kick in your face edition. Stuff like Metallica, Exodes, Slayer, Iron Maiden, just metal and nothing else. Thay would kick ass

That was excessively violent and completely unnecessary. I loved it.

Danny, I'll definitely chip in some $$.

Beer + Guitar Hero = fun.

Science friction burns my fingers.

I'm up for playing some Dead Kennedys... Although, I can play that song on bass, plus about five others... So, the game still isn't very worthwhile.

From today's Wall Street Journal "The Informed Reader" section (which has short summaries of articles from other sources):

Guitar Gently Reaps Notice Due to Popular Videogame
• SALON -- AUG. 15

Videogames that allow users to pretend to play the electric guitar might represent the instrument's best hope to reverse a decline in popularity, Farhad Manjoo writes on Salon's Machinist, a technology blog.

Guitar teachers say the popular videogame "Guitar Hero" has been sending business their way, even if the game seems to have little in common with learning to play an actual instrument. The game's fake guitar might have no strings, but as players mimic strumming along to the game's hard-rock classics, they learn rhythm and how to use their hands independently , says one teacher.

More importantly, "Guitar Hero" makes guitar-based music seem exciting to a generation that hears less and less of it on the radio, teachers say.

Funny that this thread has popped up again. One of my close friends just got Guitar Hero at her house. I've been playing it far too much. I've finally moved from skill level Medium to Hard.
