We all know and love these games, even though you look like a dork rocking out on a plastic "guitar." Now you can look like even more of a tool! Just recently, the guys down at EA Games released the merch store which allows Rock Band users to make posters, t-shirts, pins, and even action figures of their Rock Band band. WTF!!! Your band isn't even real, but you are spending real money to get merchandise that you will feel too embarrassed to wear in the future. The only thing that seems awesome to buy would be an action figure, but still that would put you back $60 or $70. Another thing that is getting on my nerves are those guitar controlles made of real wood and built to scale and design specs of a real guitar. JUST BUY A REAL GUITAR AND LEARN HOW TO PLAY!! Finally, although it is bringing kids these day into good music that isn't rap, kids are starting to think that guitar hero is so much harder than real guitar. These kids dont even have a clue. They think that beating Through the Fire and Flames will make them cool. I laugh at all those who think that. All that that does is make you look like an even bigger nerd.
So to sum this all up. Play Guitar Hero or Rock Band for fun, don't be a nerd and don't take it seriously. That is what I do. There is one thing I do thank guitar hero for. That is introducing me to such great music and convincing me to pick up the real guitar.
