Guitar Heroes...

Post by ZXRO »

This is the best beat matching/rhythm game I have ever played. It is for the PS2, and it comes with an actual guitar controller. There are 5 buttons on the neck, and a strum paddle thing and a whammy bar. It plays like Frequency, only with guitar. It had a lot of great tracks on it, going as far back as Iron Man, and as new as Take Me Out. The tracks are covers, but for the most part they are really well done. Sometimes the singer comes up short (Symphony of Destruction) and some times they nail it (Ziggy Stardust). There is even a 2 player version that comes with 2 guitar controllers. Kind of hard to come by but totally worth it if you like pretending you are a rock star, or if you like good beat matching games.

I want this game so bad! If it is as addicting as Frequency was (and still is) then I am totally there, even if it is more expensive then normal games.

It is so worth it, even if it does make your wrist sore like a real life guitarist! :P

I gave in and bought the game... and it is the best ever! I played it for 5 hours straight last night, and shiiiit, this is a classic. I'm stuck on "Bark at the moon" though
