Default Has anyone played "Guitar Hero"?

This game is hilarious. I suck at it; it's pretty difficult, for me at least. It's like those Dance Revolution games, only instead of dancing on a pad, you've got a guitar.

When a colored note comes up on the screen, you have to push the colored button on the neck of the guitar (sorry, I don't know guitar terms) and then "strum" the bar down at the base.

The game has a decent selection of music from several different genres. There's old-school metal from Sabbath, and newer material from bands like Audioslave. There's also some of that pop-punk stuff that's so popular, but there's enough music to choose from that you won't feel choked if you dislike some of it.

I didn't; my cousin did. But it's hilarious, and really fun.

I think they have it at the on-campus sports bar, but I think they only bring it out during events.
