First, I have a very important link for you. Yeah, quit your moaning. The Legend of Zelda is 20 years old now, and 1up.com<\/a> has published a very nice retrospective<\/a> on the series. If you’re reading this post, you need to read this article. You owe it to yourself. And then go play some Zelda.<\/p>\n

The other thing I want to talk about today is Guitar Hero for the PS2. It’s been out for a while, but it’s also been a very slippery game to get a hold of, and only recently did the local EB get some copies in, and me and my brother pounced like a horny teenage boy on the drunk chick at a party. Well, I’m more than pleased. The first thing you should know is that we have both found it extremely hard. Of course, I’ve never even seen a guitar, so that’s understandable. Even with the level of difficulty, I’ve been having a ton of fun with it. Beats dancing anyday, although my left hand is seriously cramped from the fret buttons. The best part of the game is without a doubt the soundtrack. Featuring bands I adore such as Boston, Deep Purple, and Queen, there’s no lack of great music to rock out to. First video game soundtrack (with “real” songs) to be free of rap, I think. Nice bonus there. Not to mention that the illusion that I’m playing “More Than a Feeling” brings me a joy that cannot be expressed in human words. Final word: If you don’t have some irrational and unfounded hatred of rhythm games, grab this one. It beats the pants off DDR as far as fun and music go, and it’s even more entertaining than Donkey Konga. Grab a second guitar and a few buddies, and you’ve got hours of limitless fun.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
