The most utterly absurd, profoundly lame and spectacularly inaccurate emulation of a real world activity, ever.
Steve: "Hey, I feel like a total fraud playing this Guitar Hero game."
Joe: "You are."
Steve: "It's fun though."
Joe: "Well, lots of things are fun, and most of them don't make you look like a complete fuckwit."
Steve: "Hahaha. Good call."

It's a game with a toy, plastic guitar that has a few brightly colored buttons on the toy fretboard. If someone just wants to play Guitar Hero for the fun of it sometimes, then that's fine. But if a person is playing it all the time, they should devote themselves to a more meaningful activity...like learning to play a real guitar. Playing a real instrument is a lifelong skill and asset. Playing Guitar Hero too much is just a waste of time, because sooner or later it will become dated and uncool.
Person 1: Dude, I am so good at Guitar Hero.
Person 2: I play a real electric guitar. I suggest you try it. You can buy a starter pack with everything you need for about $100 and teach yourself. It's actually worth while.
Person 2: Good idea!
Person 3: I play Guitar Hero sometimes, but not too much. And I don't have the time to learn a real instrument.
Person 1: Okay, enjoy Guitar Hero then.

A game that once mastered, makes up for losing all your friends.
Joe: "Damn man, I've been playing Guitar Hero for 3 months straight! I finally beat all the songs on Expert Mode"
Frank: "Who're you, again?"
Joe: "Um... Joe.. Your best friend..?"
Frank: "Oh, that's right.. you played Guitar Hero instead of hanging with me! I remember. Haven't seen you in months. Yeah, I hate you."
Joe: "It's alright, man. I now have the coolest looking guitar in the game. That totally makes up for not having any friends."
Frank: "Fuck off."

A good game that allows you to live out your rock n roll fantasies but does not allow you to think your better than everyone else who plays guitar because you can play through the fire and flames on expert mode. Another thing that pisses everyone off is that the people who play guitar hero actaully think that the controller is an actual intrument.
Kid one: I love guitar hero its so awesome I bet you 100 bucks that if you give me a real guitar I can play through the fire and flames!
Kid two: Ok hands him real guitar.
Kid one: Attemps and Epically fails.
Kid two: Ha you owe me a hundred bucks!
Kid one screw you real guitar is gay and I dont owe you anything. Kid two: takes guitar and hits kid one in the head and takes hundred bucks.

A popular game for the Playstation 2, the core of the game revolves around timing and rhythym, similar to other such games like Dance Dance Revolution. Achieved popularity due to innovative controller (which is shaped like a Gibson SG) and well recieved reviews from numerous gaming publications. As a simulation, it more accurately simulates being a famous guitar player (rising the ranks from unknown basement shredder to international phenomenon) than actually playing a real guitar. Although the game does include the ability to use hammer-ons and pull-offs, the game utilizes 5 buttons and a strum bar in place of strings on the guitar controller, so more complicated maneuvers are impossible. This has caused a bit of controversy among real guitarists towards people who often play this game, citing that it is nothing like playing a real guitar.
I'm so sick and tired of being bored,
Had it up to here with being ignored.
The kids that walk by in their tired haze,
Lookin' for a place just to have their say:
Gonna be a guitar hero!
We finally got our way!
Gonna be a guitar hero!
Gotta get on stage today!

An awesome, innovative game, that sadly gives tards the impression they can actually play iron man on guitar. Look up guitar hero on YouTube to see what I mean. For this reason, most actual guitarists look down o it, but haven't given an awesome game a chance. Although I wouldn't call it a simulation, it's very far from actual playing guitar.
gamer: OMFG 3y3 KaN PLAY Ir0N MAN 0n t3h G3374r lolzorz!!1!111!!
guitarist: Yeah, too bad a real guitar has 22 frets instead of 5 and 6 strings instead of one. Guitar Hero is for cock smoking fags.
me: Both of you are dumb fucks. Go cut your throats.

Fingering a chick with your index and middle fingers and then twiddling them back and forth like you are stringing a guitar.
