I found a guy at work willing to let me borrow his PS2, Guitar Hero, and Guitar Hero II (I know, I was surprised, too) and that pretty much sums up my performance so far. I made it through about the first dozen tracks on Medium without too much trouble. Then I hit Stellar by Incubus. I really love the song, but man is it ever kicking my ass. I dropped down to Easy and had no trouble, but I’ve only been able to finish it once on Medium and I was dangerously close to losing it. Typing feels so awkward right now…
Anyway, I’ve got the games for probably about a week and a half. I figured it would be a good way to tide myself over until Guitar Hero III comes out for Wii later this year. These are the first games I’ve really played since I spent basically half of the month of May in Seattle. I’ve been neglecting the Wii which is pretty sad considering I still haven’t finished Red Steel or Super Paper Mario. I’m sure I’ll pick one of them up again after I have to give back the guitar.
Dude…. why don’t you try playing the guitar you actually have to tide yourself over? Crazy kid…
It’s really not the same. I’m even worse at playing the guitar for real than I am at the game. Plus, when I play for real I don’t have an on-screen guide to help me or a crowd to encourage me or boo me off stage when I suck.
It must be nice to be able to play your Wii. Nintendo still has ours for repairs. It stopped reading disks the second day we had it. We’re hoping to get it back by the end of next week. Just in time for us to go to New York for five days….
I wondered why I hadn’t heard anything else since you guys picked one up. I was just in Best Buy yesterday and saw a stack of about 6 of them. Before I left the store they were down to 2. It’s amazing how fast they’re still moving.
