what exactly happens in this game. Do you have an actual guitar - or does one come with the game - or is it a virtual guitar ?

Do you actually play the solo - if so why not play a proper guitar ?

Apologies for a "Digital watch - what's a digital watch ?" moment.

It's a controller disguised as a guitar (buttons, not strings). You are pressing buttons in response to what you see on the screen.

You don't get a nasty little heroin habit to pretend you are Slash (unless you already have one) , and you don't get make up to pretend you are Gene Simmons either.

Nice to see the Rev on the list!

It's a guitar shaped controller with fret buttons, and a strum switch. You have to press the corresponding buttons with the strum switch in time with the instructions on the screen.

I'm not selling it well I admit but it is very very good. Everyone at our house enjoys playing it!

 

[Dick Knights Mumm]

Ahhhhh ... a bit like the dancing mat on the playstation .......... I see. I thank you.

Can you play it with your teeth ?

 

[magoo]

They must have spent all their money for the rights to that one coz i've never heard of the rest!!

The Reverend!

Can't believe I missed him at The Concorde earlier this year
