Fake Plastic Band (Music Video Games)
If you don't live under a rock, you've heard of Guitar Hero or Rock Band and
probably even played it. Beatles: Rock Band is immensely popular and there
are talks of an upcoming The Who: Rock Band...There are hundreds and
hundreds of songs available for download including full albums by many
artists.
Recently,
several artists, including Jack White, have voiced their disapproval of these
games. Courtney Love-Cobain and Gwen Stefani have lawsuits against the
makers of Guitar Hero 5 and Band Hero, respectively. As a long-time guitarist
and gamer, I have a blast playing these games..I also feel it may open kids up
to some good music and may even inspire them to pick up a real guitar.
What do you think?
