I disagree with therightclique, it's not harder for musicians to play Guitar Hero, but you can't expect that you do well in the game at the beginning just because you play guitar. It's the same for everyone, but I've actually seen many guitarplayers that've learned the game waay faster than people who don't play guitar. I think that's just an excuse for guitarplayers because they suck at the beginning like the rest and they think everyone's expecting so much of them since they already play guitar.
Anyways, it's a great game, and really fun to play. But they should add some more Bad Religion, but a bit harder songs than Infected.

I like Guitar Hero a lot because most of the cover bands do a great job but the guy who did the vocals in Infected did not do Greg justice.

Um... "Infected" was actually released on the 1st Guitar Hero here in OZ... yes, I wish they'd use another BR track, but it's actually a great one to play. The tracklist for Guitar Hero II sucks... no BR on that one :o(
Speaking of vids... will BR ever acquire the rights to their vids they did whilst with Atlantic/Sony and release a DVD with ALL their videos?
That would be awesome (to say the least)!

I agree with therightclique... though I do in fact kick ass at the game. The first one, because I'm hardcore like that.

the game is significantly harder for people who DO know how to play guitar, as it doesn't work like playing guitar at all. you have train yourself to not actually strum the rhythm. the nice thing about infected being on there is that i know where all the changes take place, so i don't have to worry when the chorus is coming up. i just started playing the game and have noticed that ACTUAL musicians have a much harder time picking it up than non-musicians. for non-musicians its just hitting buttons at the right time like any game. for the rest of us, you are already programmed to play guitar the normal way. if all you do is play power chords in dropped d tuning, this game will be easy.

I don't see how it's an insult to guitar players. If anything, it makes people appreciate guitar playing more because they start to listen for it more in songs and understand that it can be pretty difficult.
Just because you can't instantly five star expert mode because you play guitar doesn't mean that the game is bad. It's not the same thing as playing a real guitar, and it does indeed requrie some practice to get good at it. For people who don't play a guitar or play the instrument really nominally (like myself), the game is a great way to live out various rock star fantasies.
But yeah, it sucks that they just added the Guitar Hero I track and didn't record a new song.

Guitar Hero pisses me off. They're an insult to guitar players and an insult to Bad Religion for putting their song on the game.

I think a better song would be No Substance, or The Defense... They just sound like they could fit in a GH game!

My 5 year old can play Guitar Hero well and I've even played it, but we're not gamers my any means. I have never owned a gaming system and likely never will. Maybe my son will buy a system and I'll get to play like a rockstar again. By then, I hope to play something off br's 2020 release.

Is it just me or is it like a million times harder to play guitar hero than an actual guitar?
Shit, if they just let me hook up my real guitar to the damn machine, i'd be ripping shit up

Kinda wish they had chosen another song besides Infected. Infected is a great song, but its been on the first one. Let Them Eat War would be a cool song to have on Guitar Hero II
