    A Casual game that addictive and fun

    guitar hero is resemblent  to konamis guitar freaks but with one exception i like guitar hero. You may ask why is  guitar hero so good well first off this is probably one of the only games that makes you feel like a rock star with its nerdy but extremely fun controller guitar hero is probably the only game that immerses players in such a way. Guitar hero has a basic premise, you know that rock song you said would be cool on the guitar well you wanna play that song with no guitar skills then pick up guitar hero. Now in order to play all the songs you need to complete tiers which translate to beat some songs to unlock some more songs and that's the career mode. I could sit here and explain the game play to but all that needs to be said is if you are a fan of rock music or dream of being a rock star then you will like guitar hero. there is a multilayer mode where you battle against a friend and the basic object is to play better than your friend and its fun. There is also an in game shop where if you beat a song in career mode you get money to spend in the shop where you can get new guitars and characters to play with and even get new songs. now if you haven't noticed buy now with all the things  i have said about guitar hero translate into this game rocks literally. with all the good things aside guitar hero has one down fall and that is the songs are not original recordings so when your listening to it it isn't actually Ozzy or singing or dime bag rocking on his guitar to cowboys from hell, but it dosent take anything away from the experience. so in all things aside guitar hero rocks. Buy it!

        You would think that playing musical instruments is an inert talent that someone can posess. Hell, the last instrument I played was my 8th grade big band trumpet, which I still have and break out from time to time for a quick bugle call. Of course, this is a far cry from most's people instruments of choice, the guitar, either acoustic or electric. Until now. Guitar Hero comes from a long list of rhythm games, that span from greats like Amplitude and duds like DDR country Mix,...
