Guitar Hero Standard Edition - PlayStation 2

The complete darkness is agonizing. All that reminds you you're conscious is the cool puddles of sweat in your palms and the indistinguishable chatter of hundreds of headbangers ready to hang on your every move. You flex your fingers, hopelessly begging for blood to keep flowing to them. Years of practice and determination have come down to this. You were told to cut your moppy hair every Sunday for six years. They said you weren't good enough. But now, nothing stands between you and your dream. The spotlight comes up, bathing you in blinding light. A collage of silhouettes erupt as your drummer counts down. This is your one chance — it's time to rock out or cop out. Are you ready to take your first step toward rock-and-roll superstardom? When the lights come up, will you be signing autographs or unemployment papers?

Transform your living room into a bright stage and yourself into a rock god or goddess with Guitar Hero. Reach rock royalty status, become a legend and shred up your favorite songs until the sun comes up. Jump into a world where your best friends are groupies and roadies, take on a rock personality — whether it's a metalhead or a classic rocker and build a career as a working rock musician. The real kick is in the gameplay, which incorporates a guitar-shaped controller for added realism (not included). Play along with more than 30 awesome rock tunes from some of the greatest bands in history. Four difficulty levels test your skills and six venues place you before increasingly larger audiences. Air guitar is for airheads. Take the next step and experience life as a rock legend.
