OMFG... Guitar Hero hack becomes DJ Hero !!!!

Someone at Playstation has to see this IMMEDIATELY! this needs to be a whole game unto itself! I cannot believe that I didn't see this obvious step right in front of my face!



Is that not the shiat?! Here are my suggestions to improve the game and make it a little more DJ'ish Instead of rocking the buttons on the turntable give us a "dual" battle style set up with the buttons in the "mixer" position requiring crossfader work for the whammy sections and to set off star power. Of course this game would need to be completely revamped to make it a true DJ Hero game but I love this hack!

More Guitar Hero ... WTF?? Why is this dude fanning his junk?
Air guitar...we've all been there. You're body is overtaken by the awesome tune, your hands immediately "assume the position" and suddenly you are thrust into the nerd spotlight of ultimate douche-baggery that is the air guitar. Well someone has figured out how to take it to another level and they've licensed with Activision to brand their idea with the Guitar Hero name. Here's the video.....



Now that is ass-tacular! Air Guitar Rocker is officially licensed with Guitar Hero but you don’t need to own Guitar Hero to play. Simply wear the supplied belt buckle, plug it into the included mini "amp" thing and you're ready to rock. Play your air guitar by strumming the pick in front of the belt buckle and play such classics as Motorhead, Black Sabbath, Van Halen, and more. Your adoring fans will stare at your junk in awe and wonder and more than one parent will report you as a sexual predator if you're over the age of 18.

I guess for $29.99 you really can't go wrong and the "dude" does keep referring to the thing as a "Youth Electronic Item" so I guess it's aimed at the kiddies. I give the creators props for turning something that is none of our greatest moments into a revenue stream. Same as the guys who made this....

CES is ON! Geeks in Vegas..I'm aty home..and sad

Yes, yes it is Monday the 7th and yes there is no Pimp My PC episode posted here...What can I say. I am behind and working like a dog to catch up. You see it's really not my fault. CES (Consumer electronics Show) is on in Las Vegas and this morning my GReader was literally crammed full.

What is the CES? I'll let them explain for themselves....(from the CES website)

"The International CES is produced by the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA), the preeminent trade association promoting growth in the consumer technology industry. CEA represents more than 2,100 corporate members involved in the design, development, manufacturing, distribution and integration of consumer electronics products. All profits from CES are reinvested into industry services, including technical training and education, industry promotion, engineering standards development, market research and legislative advocacy."

So anyway as you know I have a serious Guitar Hero (GH) problem. I love everything that has to do with the game. You may or may not know that I am a gutiar player and I feel that at times this helps and hinders your ability to master GH. Well here is the answer and it turns the GH experience into an actual learning process. it's called Guitar Wizard (I know no points for originality in the title but we'll cut the guy a break)...watch as Mahalo hottie Veronica Belmont reports for Engadget live at CES.



Looks good and the pricing sounds doable. $150 for software and midi controller if you have your own guitar or $300 if you need a guitar and the rest of the package. The Washburn guitars aren't bad entry level axes but if it matters to you go buy a guitar elsewhere and get going. Much MUCH more from CES as the week progresses. and I promise I will try to get Pimp My PC finished ASAP! I just need to master Woman by Wolfmother on GHII/Hard and then its right back to work!

How-To: Build Your Own Custom Full-Sized Wireless Guitar Hero Controller

I have already posted about the fact that I am becoming a Guitar Hero geek but now Toolmonger has posted the How-To for converting that old guitar laying in the garage into a custom controller for the game.

I want this game so bad it's fucking ridiculous! I can't justify just buying it outright until after the holiday but i sure hope my family has been paying attention!

Sometimes I wish they read Yamagoo just so they were clued in on shit like this!

Anyway GO and learn!

My kind of guitar mod

I do not even own Guitar Hero (yet) and I am becoming a rabid fan. Check this out. It's part of this.
What a great idea! I can see this being a side business for someone with the skills and these are definitely cooler than the plastic versions!
