Picked up GH 3

Today I went out with a buddy of mine and braved the crowds at the malls and picked up two games at a pretty good price. I got Guitar Hero 3 with a wireless guitar for the 360 and I also picked up Party Games 2 for the Wii. I have been playing GH3 at the house here as I borrowed my buddies, so I know I like that (hooked, lol) but I hadn’t played the party games.

I quickly tried the party games out and its not too bad. I think its going to be one of those games thats more fun with a couple friends or family, and/or over a few beer. I played a few games of each of the darts, shuffleboard, horseshoes and longdarts etc, and while not perfect I can see them being a lot of fun with my friends. My friends and I compete at absolutely everything so this will be just one more thing to compete with.

As far as the GH, I am slowly getting better, have only been playing for 3 days so Its going to take some time to get to the point that I can compete with my friends who have been playing for months or years. I like it because I can play with my friends or play with the kids, or for that matter alone. My wife hasn’t joined in the fun yet but I am sure if she did she would see that its a blast. I am hoping to get GHWT for my bday but we’ll see, its a couple days away so time will tell!

Hooked on Guitar Hero

Ok, I may be the last man alive to have ever played this game, but until today, I had played less than 10 songs in my life on any platform, or any version.  But today, I played nearly 5 hours of this game!  I am hooked.  I stink, but I am hooked.

 

My kids are making fun of me (8 and 11 years old) because they both have already beaten easy and I fail roughly 47 seconds into Raining Blood, but let me tell you, I will get them in the end! haha.  Right now I couldn’t get a blue note consistantly if you paid me 5 dollars each time I did it and didn’t miss the next 3 notes but practice makes perfect I guess.  Anyway, the feeling is almost back in my forearm, so back to the game.  haha.
