I've been playing guitar for about ten years now as well, and I have no problem with the game. In fact, I'm thinking about buying GH3 for the PC tomorrow. The only problem I have is with people who think their "skills" are comparable to that of a serious guitar player. It's not the same thing at all, and nobody is impressed that you can play Buckethead on expert level. I will say, though, that GH3 can indeed help you develop dexterity, which can certainly transfer to more-practical skills, such as guitar playing.<br><br>That said, cool hax.
