No More Plastic Guitars In Guitar Hero?
Guitar Hero has been around for a while but hasn’t really inspired people that can actually play on a guitar.
The digital guitar isnt quite ready for a major public release yet but when it hits stores not only will it be able to connect with guitar hero without the need of wires, you can plug it into the ipod and rock out to your favourite songs of all time. This is the first and only thing that has been seen so far that will build the relationship that gamers and real guitarists have.
Something like this may also start to encourage artists to put more of their songs into the game as currently many refuse to simply because they would rather people play the real thing. As you can now do both the artists really do not have much to moan about anymore.
These guitars never need tuning either because they are digital which means any guitarist can just pick one of these up and start rocking to their favourite tunes and there are so many different modes on this guitar that anything is possible and it can of course be used as a real guitar if you are in a band. Although I do not think that people are just goign to drop their guitars and buy one of these I would say that if you are unsure you should at least give it a go to see what you think.
They already do many other digital instruments such as drum kits and they haven’t really kicked off at all, it really remains to be seen if this will kick off a trend and bands will start using these instead of other guitars.
Personally I don’t think it feels the same as owning your own proper guitar and belongs with other electronic instruments like the DJ equipment.
