I remember in high school, going to peoples houses every other week and relentlessly trying to convince/harass everyone that we NEEDED to play their copy of Rockband 2. Mostly because I had managed to break most of my own instruments just playing alone, and also it was one of the few games I didn't suck at, and could have fun with (In the purist sense possible).
It's probably worth noting that this series single-handedly got me into playing real guitar, and opened me up to a whole world of music that I would have never even considered/heard of (That includes bands like Nirvana, Smashing Pumpkins, Pearl Jam, ect. Stuff that's now my favorite music to listen to) -And that goes for a lot of kids in my generation! I don't know... that's a pretty significant paradigm shift if you ask me (At least it was for us lol)
Great write up Alex!!!
