I don't think the game has anything to do with having talent, and I don't think it was created for those that do. It's just another game that requires good eye-hand coordination like many video games. I think we guitar players have a bit of an advantage having better dexterity with our fretting hand than the average person. I started the game on medium, and I had a helluva time beating Crossroads- Expert level is a bit more challenging. Eh, it's just a game- it has really no relation to playing a real guitar, other than timing and some dexterity. I just wonder how many kids these days are getting stoned and playing it rather than playing air-guitar. I'm just glad my kid got interested in playing it rather than all the shoot 'em games. But he's back to those again. I think he may be sniping people off rooftops in a few years. To tell ya the truth, if I had to do it all over again, I never would have exposed my kids to tv, the internet or vid games. Kids these days are addicted to all 3 (man, I'm sounding old!). Both my kids are natural athletes, but they're becoming couch potatoes and that ticks me off more than anything.
