Govan	I know there are a bunch of Guitar Hero players out here. I KNOW there are. Now, what are your best accomplishments so far? Me, I've 5 starred the first 6 lists on Expert, 5 starred Freebird, gotten two 100 percents. I do say that's pretty good. How's everyone else doin'?

I say that for a game like Guitar Hero 2, ONE person should buy the game and guitar and share it with the world so nobody else has to pay like what, $90 for it? Honestly, paying a lot of extra money just to play a game ON TOP of the actual game price is just silly.

1: TV.
2: Outlets.
3: Electricity for the outlets.
4: Possibly one of those multi-outlet things.
5: Console.
6: Game.
7: Guitar.
8: Extra Guitars for multiplay.
9: Controllers so the console will be worth something other than one game.

Now, I don't own a 360, so getting numbers 6-9 is completely pointless! And thus going over someone's house and playing theirs is just so much cheaper eh?

Data-Con	My friend's brother beat everything on Expert. His latest feat is to face the wall while playing and just play by ear... He's nuts.

I still haven't beat the game on expert - I'm about three quarters of the way through. I have a very hard time 5-starring anything on expert. It takes a lot of practice! My little brother finished the game on expert the other day, and I spent all of last night trying to beat him in competitive mode -- after spending a few months practicing while I was in Europe, he is undeniably a little bit better than me now. Usually about 1%-5% better.

All in all, it's a fun game and I enjoy it similarly to Dance Dance Revolution. However, it's sort of an odd child: it's stuck between practicing playing my real guitar, and getting real exercise playing DDR!

This reminds me....games that require you to get 100% of everything in the game to actually BEAT the game really suck. Take the game(s) Metroid, sure you don't need 100% to beat the game but imagine if you did. That'd suck, because getting 100% is just not satisfying if you don't want to. There's games out there like that...and I hate em.

I should at least play GH2 before mocking it but uh...hey, I'm that kind of guy. On that I also have to say it really is also annoying when games encourage you to play through it again, especially when you had to go through a lot to beat it the first time.
