There's this rythm game you can download for free called Frets on Fire, that involves using your keyboard like an air guitar.
You can download it, add your own music to it, quickly assemble a sequence of notes for it and then play something literally 500 times more enjoyable than this thing.
Maybe it's because Frets on Fire was made by a guy who liked rythm games, while Guitar Superstar was created by a guy who really needed to pay off his dealer.
This looks like some ten year old kid broke his guitar hero disc, glued to a peanut butter and jelly sandwhich and threw back into the console hoping it would work.
It's kind of funny that the guy playing the ripoff is wearing a ripoff. All Calvin & Hobbes merchandise except the books (and a few similar things) are counterfeit.
it's just... I don't even know how to respond to the idea this is real, and not like some free disc that comes with a turkey sandwich as a "FREE GIFT"
the sad thing is that Guitar Hero which is just a bad rip off of this master piece is worshiped as the best game of the century. Guess gamers view about games is warped.
What the fuck are you talking about? That comment is over 5 months old. and I don't even remember what I said. And who the fuck are you to judge you have 2 videos no subscribers. You Fail.
...How is that ironic you idiot. Harmonix made Guitar hero 1 and 2 and then got a deal with MTV to make a Rock Band game so they sold the Guitar Hero IP to Neversoft who are the creators of every Guitar Hero game since 3.

This music sucks. And why is Harmonix playing this shit when they can play Guitar Hero or Rock Band? They have waaaay better graphics and songs anyway.
wow, I expected the music on these things to be a little better than atari music. fuck this shit, man. that fucker punk only has like 3 frames of looping animation. rock on
@SpadeHand I'll go one further and say that it means that they regret your birth every moment they are alive, and wish you were dead. This gift is meant to provoke your suicide.
wow what a rip off of guitar hero what is wrong with you 10 songs for $70 when you could get guitar hero 3 for $100 with over 70 songs that are accualy good?
What's funny is that this costs ~$70 and you get 10 songs no one's ever heard of. GH1/GH2 WITH the GH guitar is that same price for about 7x the songs AND they're popular/well-known for the most part. GH3 is ~$90-$100 WITH the GH guitar and you get over 70 songs. Not to mention they're freakin' awesome songs.
I feel really bad for the inevitable confused grandma that buys this for her grandson, happy that she got him "that guitar game" he'd really been wanting.
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH im getting tired of listening to their shitty MIDI covers it sucks so bad.Harmonix should sue the creaters for such a horrible ripoff lol jk
Even for jokes, DO NOT buy the game. You are giving monmey to the people who made this game. They don't care if you bought it to make fun of it, they'll have your money that will possibly be used to make more terrible games. Make these people go out of business, don't buy their shit.
Impressive. If this is '93 that is.T__T
