"No f&#*ing way am I wearing that." That was the initial reaction by many gamers when they saw the little plastic guitar that powered the original Guitar Hero. My, how times have changed. In Rock Band - the new multiplayer spin from the original GH creators, Harmonix - not only do you eagerly want to grab a fake plastic guitar, but you won't have to look far to find three other people just as willing to step up to grab a fake plastic bass, fake plastic drums and a fake plastic ...

wat i cant stand a bout this (and guitarhero) is that, as a REAL musician, i am not really doing anything. On actual drums, which i hav been playing years before rock band, i have much more fun playing these songs than in the game. the game itself is not horrible and i admit sometimes fun

but people who beleive they are getting something musiclly out of this game. especially for drummers, there is more competition between the drummers that are good and REAL, and the ones that think they can drum and have never been behind an actual drum set. some people are spending too much time at a TV/Computer screen and their brains hav turned to mush.

thank you for listening

maybe some people can read this and go out and learn a real instrument and create some real music. bring back the rock of the 90'S!

this version SUCKS! you cant customize your guy on the game but you can on xbox so dont waste your money on this sloppy cut off version of a greater version. save your money for animal crossing and wii speak.
