My only real life observation is that the existence of this game in try-out mode in some electronics stores causes me to spend far less time in them, since they have the sound on the monitors turned down you mostly hear someone banging away on a piece of plastic (and usually not as in-time with any sort of music as this guy).

I have to say I was expecting a little bit more than 5 buttons to push when a real guitar has 6 strings and 19 to 24 frets typically. Just a few more places to push. How about Guitar Zero since he can't bother to really learn to play. Being and actual musician and not much of a weeeeeeee player, that’s the first time I’ve seen how you play Guitar Hero.
