DragonForce talks Guitar Hero vs real guitar, future games may include their tracks


"People ask me about Guitar Hero every day, there's no way I can escape it."

DragonForce has gotten a lot of attention, thanks to their song "Through the Fire and Flames" being included in Guitar Hero 3. But, what about playing the game versus playing a real guitar? Well, they each require a lot of practice, so they have that in common, and they each have their benefits. Does one help with the other, though? It looks like we're not going to get that answer anytime soon.

The video does say that future Guitar Hero games may include DragonForce songs, but, sadly, the video isn't embeddable, so you'll have to head over to YouTube here to give it a watch.

Possibly the best Guitar Hero III player ever


We've seen our fair share of fantastic Guitar Hero performances here at Wii Fanboy, but this one takes them all, pushes them to the ground and buries them beneath mounds and mounds of dirt. YouTube user iamchris4life comes out of the ending song in Guitar Hero III, DragonForce's "Through the Fire and Flames," with a 100% completion. As much as we'd like for you to already be watching the video at this very moment, we had to place it after the break. The end of the video has a lot of naughty words being screamed in celebration. So it's NSFW.

The Wii Guitar Hero controller works just fine


To be honest, we've always thought of Guitar Hero as a casual series, even though Hard Mode and above are too hard for us. This perception is mostly due to the fact that it's so popular. But Josh3D's performance of Dragonforce's "Through the Fire and Flames" destroys that perception and any other thoughts we may have been having. After completing the song, he takes off the guitar controller, revealing the Wiimote held inside, therefore confirming that this video depicts the Wii version of Guitar Hero III.

Some of you may contend that this person could have spent more time learning skills that are applicable in real life instead of practicing Guitar Hero so much, but Josh3D has clearly exited our reality and entered one in which it's possible to do this. Who knows what kinds of skills are useful there?
