Awesome game The second one made things a lot harder, I can't even beat hard on it and I was most of the way through expert on the first. I do like the easier hammer-ons though, makes a lot of songs more fun than having to strum every note.
yeah the hammer on is a good thing they added. i hate all the 2nd ones songs though. i only know like 5 of them really.
yea it is, its ALOT of fun. itll definately take some time to get good at but its really worth it. and if you buy 2 ps2 guitars you can play head to head. and if you buy it id suggest the Guitar Hero 1, number 2 has a bunch of songs that no one has heard of lol.

I really like guitar Hero. It's a complete Konami type game, though. Like DDR and Para Para Paradise. I have Guitar Hero 1 and 2. ^_^
I like the songs on 2 better. I thought it had a better balance of musical styles, and I liked playing Kansas and Heart a lot
I love that game it's really awesome too bad the one I got was defective and broke the next day. Now I have to exchange it.
It's pretty good, I thought the original one had a better selection of music, though. Oh and to the people who might be interested, there's a Stepmania-like of Guitar Heroes called "Frets on fire" which you can even play with the actual guitar, like you can play Stepmania with a pad. I can't tell you if it works really well, though, because I haven't bothered with it since you have to get the MP3s yourself for most songs, which is the really annoying part. :/
Definitely an awesome game. Don't expect it to teach you how to play guitar, but it will help you with rhythm! I didn't play the first one, but I'm playing on hard right now in this one. Fun stuff!
I've only played number one and I was usless, my friend has completed the whole thing cept for the last three songs in expert
