My birthday's coming up next month, & I'm thinking about asking for a Wii. Maybe if I do that I should include Guitar Hero games on my list.

Finding a Wii is like finding the Ark of the Covenant: Its awesome when you do find it, but when you open it up, its death all around.

Also, you can't find a Wii anymore. They haven't made a new shipment of them since launch.

For a little while, at least. With Mario Galaxy, GHIII, Brawl, etc, coming out in the next few months, death will become gold.

Yes, but then when you think you have found a Wii, it turns out to be a Vii or a Game cube stuffed in a PS2 case spray painted white.

Trust me, I've seen it happen.

And that's why you don't trust eBay with stuff like that.

I once ordered an xbox through there, you know, just so I can mod it and make it all cool and put it in my truck, and what came in was an Xbox box full of bricks spraypainted green/black, a CD player attatched to it using steel place holders, and a NES controller.

The funny thing is, I could play MP3's and DVDs on it.

Did I tell you guys that I got my Wii on launch day, at the best buy in the busiest part of the city, at noon? No line, no pre-ordering, just walked in and bought it.

Didn't you once post that you were planning on selling an "Xbox 360 Box" on there? What ever happened with that?

Someone bought it, actually.

Best $37.95 I ever got.

SINCE WE'RE NOT DISCUSSING GUITAR HERO ANYWAY
I would love to rip this guy's irregular tongue out and untwist it to make him to stop talking this way.

Rock Band's list has been very updated, and I love it. It's defiantly looking better / is better than GH3. Plus, I played the demo at Hastings for GH3. Yeah, it's cool, but I don't like the controller as much as the other games. The buttons are smaller and taller, making it a bit weird to play fast.

The only songs on there that make it worth While are Tom Sawyer, and Enter Sandman(Even though its the most overrated piece of crap since Pantera was a Glam Band.)

Oh, and Run to the Hills and Paranoid, but they aren't even the Master tracks.

Oh, how foolish of me. You are correct, sir, and how ignorant of me to think that I liked those songs.

Anyway, I'm going to wait until I have more finical backup, for I have many other things besides Guitar Hero in mind to buy.

Exactly, now go back to the kitchen where you belong and make me a freakin sandwich.

If your PS2 came with a modem, it should have came with a disk. You load the disk, follow all the standard procedures that you do to get your DS or PSP or computer hooked up Wirelessly or whatever, and then you're online. But you gotta connect it to the phone line or to a Wireless adapter.

If it didn't, you can buy a PS2 modem on eBay for like $15, and set it up yourself.

All across the world Acekirbys are playing Guitar Hero 3 while Noid has to wait a few months for Christamas even though Noid can buy it with his Wii-fund.

Sorry, had to fix it.
Though I don't know when my sick dad will be able to take me. Best Buy opens probably at 10:00, which means I still have a couple hours to make him happy enough to take me.

^too lazy to make second fix.

Just got. Is fun. Still inexperienced, besides the little I played at Putin's that one time. Did tutorial and played one practice round of the easiest thing I could think of: the bass part for the first song on easy. 92% isn't good enough. Will play again later A++++++++++

I'm such a freaking hypocrite when it comes to video games.

But the advantage to that is I now have a fancy Guitar Hero 3 game and controller for my PS3.

Most people that talk about how "you should just go play a real guitar" suck at the game.

And most probably don't care either.
I would prefer to be able to play a real guitar than a video game pretending to play a guitar.

But that is just me.

Definitely just you :p

No, actually, playing a real guitar would be infinitely more awesome. But the work involved can be tiring and take a real long time. Videogames are fun NOW! And that's what's important :D

I bought it for the Wii, and I'm not all that satisfied.

The cutscenes look like crappy Gorrillaz cartoons, the controller feels too weird, the menus look horrible, and the set list isn't all that good.

Also, what the heck is up with the lead singer? Its like he has the exact same facial expression for everything.

Its nice that they have teh drummer, singer, and bassist all in tune to the music instead of just being the exact same animations sped up or slowed down for each song, bu they could have done that with GH2.

Over all, I give it a 5 out of 10. It could have been better, but it seemed so lacking.

Also, in the cutscenes, when they show small parts of teh guitarist, he's white, even if you play as Xavier.
