connorbeast made the awful mistake of letting my play Guitar Hero at his house. Today I somehow aquired a PS2. And Guitar Hero. And Singstar Anthems (with two other singing games and a dancemat one on the way from the internets). Thank goodness it's payday next week.

Guitar Hero makes me feel like a ROCK GOD.

My kids just bought Guitar Hero this weekend and my son is addicted.

Isn't it a thing of beauty?

I got addicted after seeing Guitar Hero II previewed at PAX -- particularly after watching Tycho and Robert, and then the Omeganaut contestants, face off in dual-player mode. Suffice it to say that with the former two, this pretty much got acted out (http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2005/09/19). heh. (There is in fact photographic evidence (http://www.flickr.com/photos/86326874@N00/225875118/in/set-72157594256569354/), come to think of it... I continue to be amused.)

I went out and bought my own copy of the first game not long after, and it's been a blast. I haven't gone into fits of guitar-god-go-smash glory yet, but then again, the controller/game set was $70. ;)

Meanwhile, Guitar Hero II comes out for good next month, and I will be alllll over that one... 'cause I have two words for you:

Spinal Tap.

Oh yeah. ;)

I haven't smashed the controller (yet...) but I have raised my arms in triumph to my adoring crowd, then rather sheepishly remembered they're not there. I've got to remember to take this to my parents' for my dad's birthday party. Only my mum might never forgive me.
