Opening stages are a bit slow, but everything else rocks just fine.

This game is the second volume in the highly popular Guitar Hero series. I started play with the third one, so this game is like a prequel for me. As such, I can see the differences, one of which is a beginner's setting that is so simple I beat it in under a couple of hours. Literally. I would have appreciated more of a challenge, but then, it's fun just to get to learn the songs.

Much of the selections are classic rock and metal. Fine by me. Still, I would also like to see a bit more old-school alternative-- this many games in, and still no chance to take a hack at the solos in "Shoplifters of the World" or "Monkey Gone to Heaven." You can't have everything, though.

I love a game that's just fun. I think Guitar Hero has made people a lot more interested in playing music, and that's an added benefit.

This is a perfect party game.
