Star Power Activated!

And just to prove that we are not entirely Nintendo whores, I'd like to take a moment and acknowledge just how kick-ass Guitar Hero and Guitar Hero II are for the Playstation 2. Not having one iota of musical talent (despite having taken accordion classes for about 2 years! DON'T LAUGH!!), even I have begun to develop some slight skill with this game. Granted, it is on the easy level, and that although the controller resembles a guitar, it is far from an actual one. But I can certainly see some development in hand/eye coordination. And besides, the game is just too damn cool. The songs rock, the animation is flashy and fun, and the replay value is very high. You actually start to believe that you're a rock star up on stage in front of thousands of screaming fans. (And with some surround sound, you can actually feel it too!) Not to mention how cool my Axe looks. Don't you think?? And it's wireless! If you enjoy games like Dance Dance Revolution and Karaoke Revolution, you'll totally dig this game. ARE YOU READY TO ROCK?!?!
