Nobody ever said Guitar Hero was going to replace real guitar. Calm the fuck down, guys. It's just a videogame. It allows regular joes to live out, to an extent, their rockstar fantasies. I mean who wouldn't like to be able to play guitar in front of a cheering audience? I'm seriously sick of the whole "learn to play a real guitar," argument. Guitars are expensive and hard to learn to play, whereas Guitar Hero isn't. You like first person shooters? Why don't you just go buy a real gun? Same deal.
Also, this is just ridiculous: "Secondly it's showing all these fucking emo noobs all these songs they're not pro enough to know about." I'd be hesitant to call any of the songs from any iteration of the Guitar Hero series (with the exception of some of the songs from the boston music scene) anything but mainstream. Boo hoo, you like a popular band that you don't want to share. If a band has more fans, more shit will be hoisted onto the fans to buy, meaning you get to see more of that band. Popularity for something that you enjoy is typically a good thing. Moron.
