        In 2005, a fairly unknown video game came out.  It was very expensive, and you were very lucky to have it.  That game was the legendary Guitar Hero. With songs ranging from Fat Lip to Iron Man, with bands ranging from Black Sabbath to MegaDeath, but Guitar Hero was a very unpopular game.  But when Guitar Hero 2 came out, everyone was crazy about it.  Everyone was raging about Guitar Hero.  When Guitar Hero 3 came out, everyone was killing each other for it.  A recent study stated that 95% of people at Best Buy had bought the game.             The way Guitar Hero is played is when a song is playing; you press the buttons on the neck to understand the frequency and pattern in which the song is being played.   There are 5 colors on the neck.  The colors are green, red, yellow, blue, and orange in that order.  There are also four difficulties.  The difficulties are easy, medium, hard, and expert.  In Guitar Hero 1 to 3, there are many songs.  A majority of these songs are in this game have extremely famous riffs.  Some of these songs have been on the top Billboard many times.             There are also many ways to get better songs on Guitar Hero.  If you have a modified, fat PS2, you can hack Guitar Hero.  If you put Guitar Hero in your disk drive, you can hack it, and download Guitar Hero Explorer.  You can take out a song that you don’t like to put in a new song that you do like.  But this process can take a huge amount of time, and cost a ton of money!!!  I know I have tried many times to go through with this process.  My computer almost broke, and I was banned from Guitar Hero for a month, something so horrible.  It was almost as horrible as going up to the TV, and changing the channel without a remote.              But, you should not become addicted to Guitar Hero.  This can cause an extreme drop in grades.  Many people are complete losers that they are so addicted that they only go to best buy to play the game.  When you are addicted, you can’t stop playing.  Some people hurt themselves playing.  Detroit Tigers’ pitcher Joel Zumaya hurt himself playing before the 2006 World Series.  Bad idea….. Zumaya was their best pitcher.  He could throw so fast, the pitching radar could not even catch it.  But the Tigers lost, and they were mad.  So Guitar Hero can lose a world series, and cause people to lose all they work for.             Also, one guy sold Guitar Hero three on EBay to an Australian for 9 grand!!!!!!!!!! The Australian was so obsessed.  That guy was a happy man.  There is a 9 year old on YOUTUBE who can play songs on expert without even looking.  That is definitely obsession, also he is very good. Also, a boy began smoking marijuana to be like a rock star because of this game.              Anyway, Guitar Hero is a great game.  I would definitely recommend this to anyone.  Just don’t be addicted or obsessed.  It’s just a game.  If you are interested in learning, go on YOUTUBE, and learn. It will blow your mind.  I promise it.
