i have 8 guitars and an imagination too. shared your attitude for years until i finally got over myself and tried it. turns out it's less about pretending to play music and more about having fun with music (and not limiting itself to musicians).

it's also a good way to check out music that you might have overlooked for whatever reason. i find myself pleasantly surprised more often than disappointed when an unrecognized track comes up in a random set.

it's obviously no replacement for the real thing but most people can't crank their amps and jam whenever they want and these games make for a nice little practice tool as far as stamina, timing, and dexterity go. all depends on how you want to approach the product.

speaking of. i'm gonna go pretend drum now, and don't tell me the sweat i'll be breaking isn't real either hahaha
