Guitar heroed is when you slide across a hard wood floor scrapping your knee or leg up.
"Ow... I Guitar heroed when I tried to score a point in tennis! "
A game. That's all it is, a game that gives you the feeling of being able to play guitar. While a money worthy game, tends to be annoying to people who play guitar *coughmecough* when people think that being able to play expert means they can play guitar...
*Note* Find a good medium
Guitarist: Guitar Hero is for fags
Guitar Hero(ist): I CAN PLAY THROUGH THE FIRE AND THE FLAMES ON EXPERT!!! WHAT CAN YOU DO!!!
Me: I can realize that it's just a game and I'm better off playing real guitar and playing Guitar Hero every now and then.

A very fun game that simulates the actions of playing a guitar, meaning that any schmuck can feel like a rock star. However, contrary to popular (idiotic) belief, this does NOT make you able to play real guitar. That takes lots of time and hard work. Those who calim to be guitarists de to their Guitar Hero skills should be snubbed and mad fun of.
Guy #1: "Man, I totally nailed Free Bird on expert. Thanks to Guitar Hero, I'm better than Hendrix!"
Guy #2: "Yeah, and masturbating all the time makes you better than Ron Jeremy. Get real!"

One of the greatest games that innovates without sacrificing etertainment value. Has a variety of rock songs, but would tend to lean on the metal side slightly. One does not have to enjoy metal to like this game however, for it has many mainstream approved songs. It is played a with a controller that looks similar to that of a Gibson SG. If you own a PS2 you owe it to yourself to get this game.
Guitar player: Pff this Guitar Hero is lame go play a REAL guitar.
Gamer: omfg stfu n00b talk to me when you can play Bark at the Moon on expert roflolol

Gamer: I kno u r but wut am I roflololmao

A video game, somewhat of a guitar simulation. Players use a controller shaped like a guitar, though only 3/4 the size, and 1/4 the weight. There are 5 "fret buttons", and a "strum bar." The game is played by holding down corresponding fret buttons and then "strumming" the notes as they scroll by on the TV screen. Hammer-ons and pull-offs are also possible. The songlists usually consist of popular classic rock songs like Ziggy Stardust and Killer Queen, or 80s hard rock/metal like Sweet Child O' Mine and Madhouse, though occasionally you'll find some modern stuff like Laid To Rest (Lamb of God) and Beast and the Harlot (Avenged Sevenfold)
While it's a great game, many elitist real guitar players see it as a lazy man's alternative to the real guitar, often expressing their dislike for the game and saying at the end "go get a REAL guitar!1!" The thing is, IT'S JUST A VIDEO GAME. I'm pretty sure neither of us has ever seen a person who, after 5-starring a song on Expert, truly believes he can play it on a real guitar.
And either way, what's wrong with enjoying it? I have the game, both GH1 and GH2, AND I have a real guitar. I practice it every day. Why should I not be able to enjoy the GAME? It's just a hobby. Who says that, by playing a video game about playing a musical instrument, that means you HAVE to go play the REAL thing? Face it, some people just want to have fun, not feel obligated to spend thousands of dollars and years of their life in practice and devotion. The two are completely different.
You might as well say "why play NFL Madden when you can play football for REAL?? Why play Flight Simulator when you can fly a REAL plane?? Why play Halo when you can shoot down aliens for REAL??" Notice how the last one makes very little sense? It's the same with Guitar Hero.
If you honestly hate the fact that people can attract audiences with this game, then why don't YOU play YOUR real guitar? And if you do, why waste your time coming up to people who play this game? you focus on your stuff, and they focus on theirs.
Guitar Hero Hater: Man Guitar Hero sucks! Who wants to play with a stupid plastic toy guitar when you can play a REAL guitar?!? All you n00bs are gay!
Guitar Hero Player: Yea, ok... what if I told you I just want to have fun? I don't think I can play the real guitar, but I truly have no interest in it. Is that such a bad thing?
Guitar Hero Hater: Pff you're such a fag. Guitar Hero shouldn't even exist. Only REAL guitar players should get any recognition!
Guitar Hero Player: Oh really? And what about you? Do YOU play real guitar? I want to see your "skills"
Guitar Hero Hater: Uhh.. fuck off, man. I got a Gibson Les Paul. I can play.. uhh... Seven Nation Army. Yea, there you go. I'm better than you.
*at this point, the guitar hero hater has fallen to the floor with a bullet in his head*
