A game closely resembling Guitar Hero, released for a variety of systems, most famously Xbox and PS2, which uses controllers shaped like guitars, drums and a microphone.
The game is fun for everyone, but seems to be designed so that actual musicians suck at it. The only places where actual musicians prevail is the expert level on vocals and drums, which, unlike the bass and guitar parts, are quite realistic.
Sometimes, groups of morons will actually come to believe they really can play guitar when they manage "Through Fire and Flames" on expert difficulty. However, this is a rare instance for two reasons. One is that that task is damn near impossible. Two is that most people with an IQ sufficient to play the game are too smart to have that happen to them.
Fortunately, there is a happy medium in both musicians and gamers who can just enjoy it instead of turning it into a retarded debate.

Get the Rock Bandmug. In sports (real and fantasy) a term used to describe a trade where the other side got nothing of any real value in return.
"Philadelphia traded their whole team to New York for nothing but a box of rocks."
"Derek is trying to get Joe's best outfielder, second baseman and pitcher for a box of rocks."
