Guitar Hero is a noobster ripoff of the GODLIKE Guitar Freaks. Any noob who would thumb down this comment will automatically begin sucking on an LBF chocolate bars, while ripping their assess with rusty barbwire.

You're being an ass about it but you're technically right. Guitar Freaks and DrumMania (arcade machines by Konami that linked together to play together) came half a decade before Guitar Hero. I admire Harmonix for introducing the concept to non-English speaking countries, though.

Guitar Freaks and DrumMania's difficulty (as well as all other Bemani games) dwarfs that of any game by Harmonix. Fans of Bemani games literally devote years of their lives getting good at the games just to be able to pass the toughest difficulties. Beatmania IIDX and Pop'n Music make Dance Dance Revolution's difficulty (most people's first Bemani game) look like a child's game by comparison.

look up rockband 3 pro mode, that they give you a real guitar to play the songs, its a decent teaching aid, but rocksmith is a far better teaching tool.
