omg yes! they make it addictive by giving you some songs you already love, and then a few you aren't too keen on but then playing them makes you like the song more. and then after you beat the game on medium you want to try hard, or at least unlock all your favorite songs on hard. and then you want to play your favorite songs over and over until you get 5-stars on them.

then after awhile you realize your arms are getting tired and you've got calluses on your fingers from all the fret button pushing.

guitar hero world tour on the Nintendo DS is a little easier since there's only 4 buttons..or at least that's how they lure you in. I about broke my screen trying to play "Breed".

and I'm still so mad that I can almost 5-star Sweet Child O Mine but I keep screwing up on ONE NOTE!

I never played Guitar Hero, I got my calluses playing String Bass - now I just play trumpet so I have a ring on my upper lip!

I'm so glad they don't have trumpet hero you'd make a real mess blowing into the controlers! :o

Love ya,

I find the Guitar Hero Phenom mystifying...heck you can get a pretty nice rig for the cost of the game or less even...I was enthralled though over the holidays as most every store had one set up and...be ready here..there was ALWAYS somebody fooling with it (exclude me I can be crazy enough with the real thing...I have after all been called 'THE King/Queen of feedback'). It was really interesting to watch people wail with it though...I saw some faces made that would put G.E. Smith to shame...THAT really made me LOL. From my astute field observations, and having an advanced degree in 'people watching' I would put forth the premise that it is not only HIGHLY addictive but seems to perform some sort of intense auto-gratification...strangely enough a few I observed actually gathered a crowd of 'fans' that were watching in rapt attention to the moves the Master was making...they were ripping! So there may even be some new Tribal Cult evolving before our very eyes. I've actually pursued this further...asking if people play Guitar Hero...at work and out and about and there is a devotion to this game that I've never seen before. When people talk about it they seem to get a glazed over look in their eyes and start getting VERY animated with their hands and arms and bobbing around and such. One was doing Pete Townsend Windmills and jumping up in the air...as they described playing it to me. Strum und drang, Kelly Ann

I belive the Kazoo hero was Spike Jones!

Also a virtuoso performer on the brake drums, bed post, cow bell and starter's pistol.

Joel Gray's father was the one who did all of the gulps for those of you old enough to remember either Spike Jones or Joel Gray!

I think that Sigourney Weaver admitted to the fact that while one of her uncles was actor Fritz Weaver another was the legendary 'Doddles' Weaver - vocalist? for the Spike Jones band.

Love ya,

I wouldn't call Guitar Hero addictive, but it certainly has the most replay value of any game I've ever played. I've been playing Guitar Hero 3 pretty consistently (20+ minutes a day) since it came out. This is only rivaled by a few intense months of Halo 2 multiplayer addiction which would have gone much longer if it weren't for all the cheating hackers.

BTW, I beat Through The Fire And Flames on expert... once... I was sore for a few days. I haven't been able to since, but I try every once and a while.

I don't really listen to music. I don't have any CDs or digital music files, but I jam with guitar hero.

I really don't care that a real guitar is cheap. I don't want to really play the guitar. My fun comes from hitting buttons and getting points, and I don't fantasize about being on stage performing. If a were a real performer, I'd want to sing and dance without a cumbersome instrument.

as the title suggests, I am here to answer one question. Is guitar hero addictive. Even as I am typing this, my game is paused in the other room

Yes. I'm embarrassingly good at it. There was a time when I spent hours a day practicing, like it was my job or something.

guitar hero is awesome, especially when you play for a long time and when you look away and try and focus on something for any length of time longer than two seconds and it starts to move up, fly, morph, and other fun stuff like that.

No, I swear I'm not on drugs XD

-Typing while the game is minimized-

Uh-oh, I think yes =D... GUITAR HERO III ROCKS! >_<

It's cool to "play" such cool music, and feeling like a rock star =3... but sometimes it gets pretty slow on PC -.-

BTW, Midori rlz =D

Well, it's really addicting, like Rock Band..

I used to play it a lot until my left wrist starting hurting. I don't play it nearly as much any more, but it is still fun on occasion. Although I wish they would stop reselling the game engine over and over and just sell the music as add-ons to one of the games.

Kazoo Hero? here you go

5 points to anyone who can correctly identify the song

Thats a very interesting take on Enter Sandman.

      In my case, at almost 9 months, most changes have been very subtle. I was 60 when I started, and overweight. Also, I am not very observant when it comes to changes. In the last 3 months I have been on T blockers and breast growth have definitely started having suffered irregular "ouchies", but at the same time I have been slowly losing fat, so Bust measurements have not changed. What has changed in the density, I can feel a difference. Face wise the skin feels softer, and my lashes seem to be more visible. Head hair regrowth is a maybe- maybe not situation.  I do have to select men's clothing carefully to camouflage the change in breast shape. I guess I'm still at the not passable as a female stage especially with no makeup. I'm also over 6 foot and well over 100kgs which I guess is problematic to start with!   Hope this helps somewhat   Kate .

      I started feminizing HRT about 6-7 weeks ago. I began with what I called the beginner's patch. I immediately found myself wanting to level up to the next dose and did that this week (yay!). So far, I am enjoying the ride.   I've read everything I can find on this topic. For the HRT vets on here, what is reasonable to expect in terms of physical changes for someone starting in their 50s? I know "your mileage may vary." I guess I am curious if I stay on my current trajectory for six months, a year, multiple years, how pronounced will the physical changes be? Will I reach a point where it is totally obvious or will I land in a "middle zone" somewhere in which I could pass either way?   Thanks! Like I said I am enjoying the ride so far and always curious to know others' experiences. Not sure anyone else in my life will be excited about these moves I am making, but I have been over that in many places on here already so need to rehash... Love and blessings to all!   Easy

      Being admitted into the hospital after a long ER visit. I started passing lots of blood and they are keeping me for observation.    Nurse came in to see about a condom catheter, that of course doesn't work on me. 🤣   She said, "I guess we will use incontinence supplies on you."  
    • Ivy
      Yeah.  I think this is what it is about.  Since they are not transgender, nobody else could possibly be either.  I'm not sure that a cisgender person can understand being transgender.  But that hardly means that a transgender person's experience is not real - just because it is not theirs. Why is a transgendered person's experience not valid, while a cisgendered person's is?  Why should it be the cisgendered person that decides? Nobody is forcing a cis person to transition.  What I do for myself is my own business.

      @maebe   It sounds exciting.  I hope all goes well.   Abby

      I've been thinking it is a matter of belief.  They simply do not believe someone can validly be transgender and should not be allowed to practice their beliefs, but should be forced to practice their belief, that is, that there is no such thing as transgender and it is all mental illness/sin/hormonal imbalance. 
    • KatieSC
      I am really kind of sick of everybody who is not transgender deciding on what we need and do not need in the way of procedures. They act like all of this is play acting, and we can just apply cosmetics to our entire body. It might be refreshing if someone asked us directly what services we need in order to transition. I could say more as I am frustrated, but I do not want to violate the TOS.

      I discovered her "Whipping Girl" when my egg first cracked.  It helped me understand some things.
