A video game, somewhat of a guitar simulation. Players use a controller shaped like a guitar, though only 3/4 the size, and 1/4 the weight. There are 5 "fret buttons", and a "strum bar." The game is played by holding down corresponding fret buttons and then "strumming" the notes as they scroll by on the TV screen. Hammer-ons and pull-offs are also possible. The songlists usually consist of popular classic rock songs like Ziggy Stardust and Killer Queen, or 80s hard rock/metal like Sweet Child O' Mine and Madhouse, though occasionally you'll find some modern stuff like Laid To Rest (Lamb of God) and Beast and the Harlot (Avenged Sevenfold)

While it's a great game, many elitist real guitar players see it as a lazy man's alternative to the real guitar, often expressing their dislike for the game and saying at the end "go get a REAL guitar!1!" The thing is, IT'S JUST A VIDEO GAME. I'm pretty sure neither of us has ever seen a person who, after 5-starring a song on Expert, truly believes he can play it on a real guitar.

And either way, what's wrong with enjoying it? I have the game, both GH1 and GH2, AND I have a real guitar. I practice it every day. Why should I not be able to enjoy the GAME? It's just a hobby. Who says that, by playing a video game about playing a musical instrument, that means you HAVE to go play the REAL thing? Face it, some people just want to have fun, not feel obligated to spend thousands of dollars and years of their life in practice and devotion....

One who dislikes the band Dragonforce. This could be for many different reasons.

1. They just don't enjoy the music.
2. They hate the fact that there are several unintelligent people that think they are the greatest band ever.
3. They heard a rumor that they speed up their songs and blindly believe it.
4. They dislike all mainstream music.
5. They think it sounds too much like video game metal.
6. Their friends dislike the band and they are merely trying to fit it.
7. They think that their only famous because of Guitar Hero 3. (Not gonna lie, that IS where they got alot of their popularity from.)
There could be several more reasons.

Said hater could be arrogant or passive about their dislike. Most arrogant haters will verbally attack Dragonforce fans saying that they listen to crap music.

Shitty band made up of shitty musicians. All they ever do is play scales extremely fast, and throw a few thrash pieces in. They are only popular because of Guitar Hero 3 Legends Of Rock, released in 2007. all though they were asked to be inserted into the game, they still have no talent... unless you call being a douche-fag a talent, then yeah... but if you ever listen to more than 3 of their songs, you will notice that all their somns are exactly the same... 23 sweeps (all the same), a pattern of 5 power-chords, and more sweeps... so if you are ok with listening to the same stuff over and over and over and over, then i recomend dragonforce.

use the leftover diarrhea chunks from Alabama Iced Tea and mix them into a glass of boiling water.

True band name of Killswitch Engage.

an inexperienced gamer who thinks he is good but sucks real bad at the game. Commonly called during a Halo 3, Call of duty 4, Grand theft auto 4,or guitar hero game.

Sometimes referred to as "Debby Downer."; Someone who practices hate on someone, or spots out the negatives in something good.
