To play or not to play? (Guitar Hero III)

 I really hardly have time to play videos games I have played HALO 3 since it came out in fact it was the only reason I even bought my XBOX 360. So I had a best buy rewards gift certificate so I thought since they don’t have the iPhone 3G I’ll get a couple of games. So I bought Unreal Tournament III and honestly I wish I didn’t it’s not as good as HALO 3 in my opinion. And I also so I bought Guitar Hero III.

I could not open the Guitar Hero III Package. You see it’s a total fucking waste of time! I have spent enough time playing HALO 3 becuase, as the saying goes all work and now play makes John a dull boy or however it goes. I mean I really love Halo 3.

I played Guitar Hero III once with with some friends and it was fun I’ll give it that but here is the real issue. I have 5 Real Guitars 3 Electrics and 2 acoustics and I hardly ever touch them (See 3 below). In fact I have been playing off and on (much more off than on) since I was 8 years old. And I am not really any good at it. Why becuase I never fucking practice!!!

So I have 5 guitars that many Guitar players would kill for wishing I could play really well and here I am staring at this fucking Guitar Hero III toy  thinking “You have got to be kidding” You have 5 killer guitars in the other room that you almost never touch and you are going to spend countless hours playing this fucking toy with 4 plastic button on it. And then I remember back to when I was 8 and wanting to play guitar and think of all of the young kids wasting hours of their lives playing this stupid game when they could be learning to Jam on the real guitar!

So I took the Guitar Hero III back today! I pulled out my Ovation Acoustic  The one with the flames in the picture.( I can’t keep them on the wall becuase of the lack of humidity in Vegas.) And started to play and decided that they money that went for Guitar Hero III was now going to the BEST instructional guitar course I can find! Who knows I might even buy a Fretlight Guitar! (Has light up frets that show you where to put your fingers)

Yes I am going to Still play Halo 3 I love it! But work and my guitar is coming first!

Now if they would only make a version of Guitar Hero that allowed you to use a real guitar and practice while playing the game we would be on! I could really get into that! (I hear some companies are working on it right now, but an Official GH Version would be awesome!)

BTW here is a thought for you kids/guys playing GH III Which one do you think will get you more chicks? GH III or a Real Guitar!)
