    The problem with Guitar Hero is that the notes are not...
    ...properly assigned to the frets, if you know what I mean. It's all that color-coded crap and, if I didn't actually play guitar, would be much easier for me. While I only know the leads to some of the songs, the thought of the real notes and real guitar fretboard are ingrained in my brain and I can't separate it from the game.

    When something really, really sucks, it sucks hippo balls.

    When something really, really, really sucks, it sucks giant hippo balls.

    In this case sucking gargantuas hippo balls might just begin to get close.

    I won't do it, and you can't make me.

    All this is true, and avoiding the fact that there's no option for vibrato or legattos, I found the pick hand tracking to be extremely slow. Sweep picking is next to impossible :)

    Okay, so we're picking nits. I can see how this would actually be a very fun game for non-players.

    It's kind of weird on easy once you play on the harder levels, but overall I think "they" did an excellent job on the games.

    Betcha they are making a zillion dollars, too.
