Rub it in, you smug bastard!The_root_of_all_evil said:Given Yahtzee's obsession with Guitar Hero and being English, I think it's a fair bet he'll give it a going over.The Rockerfly said:Huzzah ^-^The_root_of_all_evil said:Confirmed yesterday [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/7.130968?page=1]The Rockerfly said:Just a thought, I really hope the last setlist will be played on a roof top in liverpool
It would be awesome
Atleast Yahtzee won't dig into the game for not being correct to The Beatles then if he ever reviews it
When it gets to Australia.

I think your forgetting the "having fun" part.Jurassic Rob said:Is it just me (and apparently Yahztee) or is this game a big waste of time? If you pick up a real guitar and practice for about 3 months, you can play most of the Beatles' tracks. Don't get me wrong, I love the Beatles (my fellow Liverpool citizens), but nearly everyone knows the words to the songs and as stated above they aren't hard to play for real!
In summation Beatles = Geniuses
Beatles: Rock Band = A cash in and a complete waste of time!
Well no I'm not. Playing the songs for real is much more fun than pressing coloured buttons, and you feel a real sence of achievement(!) when you get through a song perfectlydekkarax said:I think your forgetting the "having fun" part.Jurassic Rob said:Is it just me (and apparently Yahztee) or is this game a big waste of time?

True, but learning how to play an instrument is a long (if rewarding) process, plus, there is the problem of getting three guys who can play guitars and sing and one guy who can drum.Jurassic Rob said:Well no I'm not.

Ok I will concede that you have a point there, but for someone like me who has played the guitar for ten years, then my original post standsdekkarax said:True, but learning how to play an instrument is a long (if rewarding) process, plus, there is the problem of getting three guys who can play guitars and sing and one guy who can drum.Jurassic Rob said:Well no I'm not.

Basically, it is a better option for people who don't have any musical talent, nor any friends who have the required talent too; and I guess it's good if you are too busy to learn.
Maybe for you, but many people prefer simplified abstractions over reality. Or, more simply, different people have fun in different ways. Some people enjoy having the constant feedback that these games provide; others enjoy the idea of interactively 'playing' the song while still hearing it actually played by professionals; still others, as dekkarax points out, want the thrill of playing an instrument without making the time investment of learning how.Jurassic Rob said:Playing the songs for real is much more fun than pressing coloured buttons
