Scott Ian vs Guitar Hero II
polycounter lvl 18
For those who don't know, Scott Ian is the rhythm guitarist for Anthrax (the band my handle comes from). Someone recorded him trying to play his own song on Guitar Hero II. Funny shit

Lol! Either that or they've been pulling a Milli Vanilli for the past decade or so.
When I hear a note coming, my fingers try to go to the "real" frets as opposed to one of the few buttons.
I'm a relatively decent guitarist, and according to the few times I've played guitar hero, I'm pretty bad at the game.

You could see that was happening to Scott Ian.
I thought the funniest part was when he starts using the excuse that he's a rhythm player and not lead
That, and my daughter played this soung better than him, which I know it's different than playing the real thing, but it's still amusing to me
no idea if its old news

but Guitar Hero might have cost the Detroit Tigers the world series.

It was funny to hear about the Guitar Hero injury though, back when it happened.

Two of the best GHII players in the world, co-op, Less Talk More Rokk on Expert, 100% for both.
I haven't even 5*'d that song yet
It's great fun, so i'm not complaining
Isn't Guitar hero just DDR

Yes...it's just DDR, but without the dancing.
...the tune gets all garbled and you feel like a noob. consequently theres more reward for getting it right

Yeah, definitely! I've played GH2 a few times at a friend's house and the intro to Sweet Child O' Mine absolutely shamed me. I couldn't help but wince each time I screwed up one of the phrases.
It's an addictive game, reminds me of Frequency on the PS2 as well. You had to rotate around this tube hitting the notes in time to get the song to play, also highly addictive.
