You see, I've never played a Guitar Hero game, and part of me really really wants to.
At first, I resisted the impulse to play it because of the guitar controller. I've had been burned more than once on peripherals (I owned a R.O.B. Robot, Power Glove, NES Mouse etc), and well, a guitar seemed a little gimmicky to me. That and I completely suck at rhythm-based games. It is pathetic really.
And then the second installment of the game came out, and everyone was talking about it, and there were times when I wanted to bask in the light of faux thrashage, I truly did, but I've held firm in my resolve. Sure, I drove by Youtube videos online that were out of my way, but I don't have a problem.
My resolve started to really weaken this weekend with the release of Guitar Hero III... I might break before the end of November, and if I do, it will consume my very soul because I would have to achieve simulated rock perfection. It would turn me into a sweaty, leather-bedecked mess that desperately needs to melt some virtual faces. Forget about me blogging for a while... I would be sick in the head for a while if I started down that road.
I know if I open that door, there is no going back, and I don't know if I am fully prepared for that just yet.
