Take that little kids and your fake guitars!
Why is this a good day? TONS OF PEOPLE WERE FIRED!
They should have known better than to work for Activision in the first place (it's like a stain on your portfolio).
You're clearly too young to understand the importance of having a job these days aren't you?
Nope, plenty old enough. It's not wrong to laugh at some things. You'll get it some day.
That's not true at all. I could list off plenty of artists who have not had their music put into Rock Band or Guitar Hero in the same way more well known bands have. If they put in more Yngwie Malmsteen material, people would be shitting bricks trying to play it. Have you tried to play Headed Into the Ditch by Andy Timmons on Rock Band? That song is pretty much impossible, and this is coming from a guy who has beaten some of the most challenging songs available. There are tons of less famous artists that have yet to have their music put in games for one reason or another. I mean come on, where is all the Frank Zappa stuff? The guy was an amazing guitar player and a genius song writer and band leader, maybe people might just get offended by his music because some of it is either politically sensitive or references things like sexual orientation and different sex practises, but then again he was never one to care about hurt feelings of the audience and those listening.Terminator02 said:Guitar Hero 3 was the last mainstream guitar hero game, after that it was just copying rock band and adding more mainstream songs that were incredibly easy to play, all of the good rock songs were already done

EDIT: Well they are connected so if one falls the other will
The reason Guitar Hero 1 got big was because it allowed gamers to "air-guitar" to really good guitar songs. It was really fun. Harmonix didn't think that GH would be that popular so it really started from there. I have personally played every single Hero game myself (on the 360 at least so the 80's one don't count) and while I've liked all of them (Warriors of Rock is by far my most favorite since it has all imports and has the most stable engine out of all Guitar Hero'es), I thought the series was dead since after World Tour. One of the reasons to blame the decline of this genre is World Tour. I mean, it was hyped to be the best GH game of all time, with people going on about "better drums", the touch strip, the band gameplay (which a lot of people thought GH innovated the band gameplay and not RB). Then when it came out, lots and lots of people complained about the game being unpolished, instruments broken out of the box, really mellow setlist, etc.Depravo said:I'm still at a loss to understand why this type of game became so popular in the first place.
