So I was playing Guitar Hero 2 at Best Buy....

[CyberPitz]

I played it twice. First song was "Killing In The Name Of". Didn't do so awesome at that, because I'm REALLY tired, and it had those tricky double notes followed RIGHT next to singles, that take some concentrating to get....so I got a 4 star. Not too horrible. Next was Expert FreeBird....

This was 2 player, so I was Lead and someone else was Rhythem. It was going pretty good, didn't miss one till the first part of the fast blue/yellow/red/repeat then split to double red/blue. Missed a couple there. The rest of the time wasn't too bad. Anyway, long story short, I finish, and people start to applaud. I turn around, a crowd had gathered behind me. I was kind of confused. "YOU ROCK MAN!! WOOOO" was one person. Another was a gangster looking white boy, "Man, you kicked ass. Nicely done." We chatted a bit before I began to depart with, "10 minute songs kill your arms." And a few yelled out, "ROCK ON!". I felt happy that somehow people got excited over a song.

Anyway, just sharing the good cheer.

Sounds awesome. Soon women will be throwing themselves at your feet for some good 'ol Cyber rape.

Pah, girls for some reason don't like to see somebody not attractive play that game. They'd rather have the popular person on it.

 

[Tollbooth Willie]

Oh come now, can't be like that can it?

Hehe.....I said come. Which really isn't funny.

I'm surprised as you were playing the first they weren't all shouting "freebird!" with their lighters out.

I was curious if I would turn around to that ;P

Ha. The same thing happened to me and my little brother at Circuit city >_> He was playing on medium, me on expert (Pretty sure it was Strutter) and a crowd gathered around us. Now I know how those guys that play DDR at arcades feel. Theres always a crowd around them :x.

Haha, feels good to be cheered on

The Best Buys around here only have the 4 song demo of GH2 but I always play it at least once (usually YYZ) when I go in.

I play on expert and some people gather around, then after I'm done another kid tries it out and fails miserably on Expert and tones it down to Easy

They also have the volume so low only people within 5 feet of the TV can really hear it

Damn that sucks. Low volume and 4 songs?! Bleh.

I'm pretty intrigued by Guitar Hero...

But, I hate hate hate DDR-esque games, so I should probably stay away.

Nah it's really fun! Get it, trust meh.

Yeah, At gamecrazy nearby people usually are playing it, sometimes an employee when its the off-time. One of the guys said 'What difficulty?' And he said 'Expert' so the guy said 'Good luck man.' He was doing really good, missed a couple of notes now and then. And this all happened while I was testing excite truck.
