hey dasmos... i play guitar bass and drums in real life... im in a band.  but i play these games with people who dont know how to play music.  and on top of that there just fun.  i really hate the attitude that these games are bad for music.  they were never meant to inspire musician they were ment to entertain people who dont want/can play music.

I <3 Bon Jovi. Singing his stuff in GH&RB is too much fun.

[walkingdead]

bon jovi is probably the worst thing that ever happed to the human race... ever.  he is worse than slavory, worse than killing in the name of god, worse than nick cage even.  i cant prove it but im pretty sure that his music is the cause of cancer.

Me too man, but trolls will be trolls Even the one or two friends i'm still in touch with that play an instrument enjoy getting a kick outta these games, probably because they can only dream of playing a song like Hot For Teacher on a real guitar

Speaking of guitars, i gotta get a new amp and quick! My guitars getting dusty.

My guitar needs to be restrung. I broke the G string and have to replace it.

My acoustic guitar has been missing its E string for years because:

A. It took me awhile to find nylon strings for the damn thing
B. I never bothered learning how to restring it, because I'm used to my electrics having a ball/bullet-end string.

This is, by far, the worst track list of any GH/RB game so far. This should be optional DLC. I think that's their plan though - make this bullshit the core game, so you have to buy it, then they'll release the "real" track list as DLC, costing you more in the end. Also, nylon strings are pretty easy to replace. You basically pull the string (about 2 inches or so) through from neck-side to body-side, then loop it around itself on the neck-side, and put the slack though the body-side and pull the other end taut. The tension from tuning the guitar will keep it from coming loose.

that is the thing.  some of these songs i have no chance of ever being good enough to play.  plus if you dont have the right set up its really hard to make some of these songs sound good any way.  unfortunately i don't have 3g's to plop down on amps and pedals right now.

i really hate the attitude that these games are bad for music.

I can agree with this in that it is no worse for music than the radio, MTV, VH1, and other avenues for popular music.

Every video game is a form of escapism, in which you pretend to do something you aren't necessarily able to do in real life.

I really can't stand this musician elitism against Guitar Hero and Rock Band, ESPECIALLY when it's from otherwise very active gamers.

[Dasmos]

they were never meant to inspire musician they were ment to entertain people who dont want/can play music.

Which isn't me.

I have played these games, and they're average at best. In fact I had more fun playing them with just a standard controller, because the note progression makes a little more sense that way.

I hear ya man. I'm looking into buying a new guitar amp but don't really wanna spend the money on it because i know i don't have the kind of free time anymore to make good use of it. If i wanted to jam for a few mins a day i'd just bust out my acoustic. If i get an amp i'd want something decent, not another practice amp like the one i've held on to for so many years before dying, but it'd end up being there for show.

On top of that i've been meaning to buy another bass after selling off my only one YEARS ago.. but thats more money down the drain if i don't put it to use. In the meantime i'll just make cool looking custom guitars in GH:WT and pretend its part of my collection haha.

i was wondering after reading how famous musicians have come out against this game and so many on so many boards have i got to thinking.

after hitman came out were there statements by assasin groups deamonizing the games?
and what about car jackers with grand theft auto?
and how bout the plumbers union?


nope just with music games.

[Dirk Temporo]

That post was more worthless than most of mine, and pretty bloody stupid to boot.

Quit being so butthurt. It's just a game.

User was warned for this post. Personal attack and trolling. ~Pale
