I play both Guitar and Guitar Hero, each for entirely different reasons. The person who started this thread is an ass. I'll respect Chromer's opinion, mainly because it deals with the game concept, and not the player.

Cyanite summed it up best.

Guitar Hero music sucks because they are mostly covers, which almost always suck (except Between The Buried And Me's cover of Bicycle Race, which was awesome)






PS: Nevermore is American and the are amazing
Also, Dream Theater is American, and they are even more amazing.

The covers were always good from an instrumental standpoint.

Guitar Hero 3 will have all master (original) tracks.

And the fact that its a really dumb one.

With that said, I myself don't like GH, but I don't hate it because it makes people feel acomplished

I just hate the people that DO. I've seen people at stores that have the GH demos that were literally like this:

"Wow, you're amazing at Guitar Hero."
"I know, aren't I?"
"Yea, you should definately play real guitar."
"I know, I'd be like Led Zepplin."

First of all, **** you all for not getting my point at all.

2nd, Tibs, no I'm not bashing GH because it has American rock in it. Hell I love Thunderhorse and Trogdor etc. I don't like GH because they are so worried about losing their fanbase that they would keep the same sometimes good, sometimes ****ty rock just to keep that base they have. If GH were to branch out to rock from other countries say like Lordi and Rhapsody, not only would they introduce people to other countries' rock music, it might get even more. But you know, you can't get you head out of your ass close enough to get past Spanish Castle Magic and Cowboys from Hell. Excuse the hell out of me.

3rd, Innovation doesn't matter? You people must be brain-dead or something. Last time I checked, innovation is the reason Nintendo owns the next-gen market at the moment. I guess I must have short term memory loss or something.

Also, I think GH had an idea of what they were getting themselves into when they decided to make GH. "Let's appeal to the 18-35 demographic of America that replaces that air guitar with a plastic one and let's use the format we used with Frequency and Amplitude!" was probably what exces said when they pitched this idea. Ok, GH added two more frets and a whammy bar. Good for them. But ****ing give props where props are due. Without GF, do you honestly think GH would have came up with the same exact thing? Probably not.

Since I'm winding down this little rant, **** you Aids for your bandwagoning, suck a Vet's dick post and Guido for that comic that had no bearing to my argument at all.Thank you FFR, good night!

So, to sum it up, you hate it because:

1. It doesn't have music that many have never heard of.
2. It's not revolutionary. (heaven forbid if something has been done before in the gaming world)
3. It's similar to another game that nearly no one has heard of before. (omg, GH was based off of GF, that makes GH instant fail. Better get rid of ITG too.)

Harmonix sold themselves to MTV, I don't think they're worried about introducing new music anymore... just making money. I miss FreQ and Amp. =(

Have you guys seen the new game Harmonix is working on?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rock_Band_%28video_game%29
From what it's sounds like all it is, is Guitar Hero, Karaoke Revolution, and Taiko Drum Master rolled into one game? (more or less)
Le sigh

I'd have to agree with Chromer actually. The game has little to no innovation at all; it has all been done before, but that doesn't mean that the game can't be fun. I only have a few favorite songs on GH2, mostly because either A) The music sucks or B) The charts are retarded (Hello Freebird and Jordan!). I did not like GF at all though. I find GH much more fun, but it hasn't brought anything new to the genre like people seem to think it has. People think it is revolutionary and people DO think they can play guitar if they are good at GH. Although this is a generalization, there is some validity in the point. It's damn annoying, but I also don't let it bother me because I can still have fun with the game.

GH is not revolutionary. It is not ****ing amazing. It is a huge waste of time in my opinion. But who said that a waste of time couldn't be fun? The multiplayer is quite amusing to play, especially with friends. The ability to unlock guitars, characters, songs, etc. gives the game SOME replay value, but that isn't really the focus of the game. All and all, it is a fun music game; just another title in a vast genre. That's it.

I don't care for 80% of the music that's on GH, but it is still a fun game to play.

I remember playing Guitar Freaks in the arcade about 5~6 years ago (when I was into rhythm based games) and not caring for it at all. However, the first time I played GH, I loved it. I've considered buying it, but I don't like it that much. But I must say, it did live up to the hype.
