Don't tempt me to continue my long tradition of buying people consoles.<BR/><BR/>In any case I'll catch up with you over Xmas/New Years.

We don't have one at our house so I haven't had a chance to play much though. Whenever I hear guitar heavy songs now I think of playing them as a riff in game.

We are going to joint buy a PS2, so we can steal all of her sisters games, and then we can buy GH1 and GH2 and have 2 guitars as well! *HURRAH*<BR/><BR/>-WuffieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24434266.post-1164796071272102712006-11-29T21:27:00.000+11:002006-11-29T21:27:00.000+11:00JB HiFi has Playstations on sale for $186.They als...JB HiFi has Playstations on sale for $186.<BR/>They also have Guitar Hero 2 on sale for $117.

I went out and tried a demo during lunch today and really had a ball (I was also totally crap, but oh well). Now I'm in a quandary - to get a PS2 or not to get a PS2?<BR/><BR/>Who knew games could be so much fun?<BR/><BR/>cricketk on LJ.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24434266.post-1164788557912590192006-11-29T19:22:00.000+11:002006-11-29T19:22:00.000+11:00Awesome.

I'm coping with the oranges (more or less) - that comes down to fingering, or has done so far... but the bridge and following guitar solo in Mother has me beat.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
