Guitar Hero

Video games have long been a passion of mine, which may come to a shock to many of you. I drifted away from them in graduate school, but have since picked up again. I usually only play war and sports games, neither of which Erica enjoys. This means we have never been able to share this interest.

That is, until now.



We splurged a bit and purchased Guitar Hero III. It is a game that has a miniature guitar as a controller, and you have to play "notes" on that appear on the screen corresponding to various songs. It allows those with little or no musical talent to "rock out." More importantly, it provides us a way to play video games together. It is more addicting than any video game I've ever played. It features "Talk Dirty To Me" by Poison, which is my all-time favorite song. It is euphoric.
