I have heard a few people say that they see no point to playing a game like Guitar Hero. They would rather have a person learn to play an actual guitar. It sort of makes sense because you would be building a more valuable skill, but isn't that just an attack on all forms of entertainment?

When you have mastered numbers, you will in fact no longer be reading numbers, any more than you read words when reading books. You will be reading meanings.

I think it's more a criticism of the "gutair hero guy" that thought they were something because they could do freebird on hard.

But in all honesty, people should leave others alone. Personally, I usually like rhythm games. Not that one so much, but still... If I want to learn to play guitar, I'll learn. But if I want to play a game, I'll play a game... Pretty simple...

That's like saying people should build houses for the homeless instead of playing Tetris. No! The homeless suck and don't deserve nice things.

Don't play Harvest Moon of Stardew Valley. Just buy a real farm. Don't play Pokmon. Just have dog fights in you basement...

That's why I play Taiko no Tatsujin, can't say that I'm not actually learning an instrument then, ahahaha!

Rocksmith and mayyyybe the full drumkit don Expert in RB are arguably good tools for learning, but yeah, slamming a 5/6 button controller won't teach you much.

The games are fun the criticism is dumb.

Learning real guitar is a great thing but since its so intensive not even really comparable to guitar hero imo.

Lets take a hard song my friends and i can play on expert...roundabout by yes.

Lets take that same song and do it with re al instruments...months later we might not even have a grip on it.

Pokemon are more like cats.

I mean, there are some that are cats, some that are dogs, some that are birds, etc. So replace dog with whatever animal. Still an animal fight club, right? And I guess we should start one because apparently, that's better than Pokmon...

I dislike the games but I TRY not to judge others for their gaming choices.

Fair enough. You can play a real guitar irl with no issue, while you can't do 150 mph drifts on an active airport and shooting people in the face irl without trouble.
