POPSQuit High School To Play "Guitar Hero" I guess he has a future as a salesman, at least. I find the whole Guitar Hero thing disturbing. Why not just learn to play a real guitar? I guess it's another bent on virtual reality.

POPSMusic Video Games Account for 32% of Industry Growth in '08 It seems that everyone dreams of the fame and fortune of being a rock star. Even as a young boy and adult I use to take guitar and even trumpet lessons looking to embrace those dreams of being on the road, carefree and playing to thousands of fans. As I got into video games I acted out the dreams of being a hero in games like metroid,starfox,legend of zelda just to name a few. Then all of a sudden comes guitar hero and rock band. These games have become so popular you would think that it was the beatles first trip to the United States playing on the Ed Sullivan show. Every major department store that you go into these days you will see a video game display with 3 or 4 kids playing with a virtual guitar throwing down on the many different standard rock songs that these games have to offer. Who knew that being a rock star in your own living room would become so popular.
