Guitar Hero (3)

You know what I've never understood... how Asians are so good at video games. Like my friend Ryan. He can't be beat in Guitar Hero. And he isn't too shabby at Halo either. Like him and his little brother, Tyler, are the only two people in our ward who can beat the amazing song by Dragonforce, Through the Fire and Flames on expert. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c3H4liC2sWg) It's unbelievable I mean check this out. No one can compete with them. I mean Yngwie Malmsteen, he's good but 2 guitar parts in an amazing solo like Through the Fire and Flames. You just can't beat it.




I am currently working on how to learn to play the song in real life so my mom enjoys the, scratchy hardcore rocking out I do in the other room. My brother's favorite song is called "One", but he can't quite beat it. He's on hard difficulty so far but he's working his way to expert. My current favorite song might be "The Way it Ends" by Prototype. It's a pretty fun song but then I also like the song called "Impulse" but I'm not sure who plays it. And then I also have my classic overall favorite because it's just such a hard song and sounds so awesome, is the rock version of "We Three Kings".

Some people who I've talked to about guitar hero say that it's a disgrace to the real guitar... I just think they can't play it. We all have our excuses. Except stinking Asians. No I am not racist, I am merely amazed by the Asians ability to master any device with a circuit somewhere in it.

My friend Ryan is currently attaching a new room to his house where he has this huge 56'' Plasma Screen T.V. with his Xbox so he calls it the Halo T.V. Because that's his life over the summer. He goes to work, goes to the gym, and then comes home, eats, sleeps, and plays Halo. The perfect teenager life! My mom would probably beg to differ though. Besides summer doesn't last forever so make the best of it, right?

I'd have to say that Guitar Hero was an ingenius game. Probably one of the best ever created. Try it if you haven't, it can't hurt to try right? Just don't let anyone else convince you about that with drugs because well they aren't Guitar Hero. Don't do drugs.

I think that Ryan and Tyler are good at whatever they do. They are very talented kids!

Guitar Hero is one of my more favorite video games. I appreciate the lack of guns in it. I don't appreciate the scantily clad virtual rock star girls, but appreciate that they decrease their attractiveness by awful body piercing and tatoos. Ick!

I can play one or two songs on Guitar Hero at the easiest level. I enjoy that. I will never master that game, but will enjoy watching you do it.
