Well I hate the wiimote, period. Give me a frickin' light gun, not a stupid wiimote. That's how Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles could be made so much better.
I'm no airsoft champ, I do own my own gas powered BB gun. I have fired .22s and a British Army training version of the SA80 (L96, fires 5.56 rounds). I still say give me a damn light gun!
Speaking as a guitarist, rock band and guitar hero in no way help playing guitar
Rock Band could probably teach you how to play the drums though
loldrummers, aren't they the guys who hang around with the band?

What I mean is that rockband helps me with my "timing" so to speak, buttons are diffrent from strings, yes, but the co-ordination of hitting the right strings (buttons) are crucial, think of it as "hand-guitar co-ordination." and I also use the mic to try to keep my vocals on par, which early in the morning aint so good. I listen to the music in my head and hope my brain hits the right strings/buttons xD

Best thing to do is obviously play along with the music
I have a program called Guitar Pro, can get tabs for it and it'll play it for you as well as show you the tabs with proper sheet music. Great for learning new songs until you're able to actually play along with the music

To help you with your guitar playing? Silly Ka-chan
Practice, practice, practice!
Reason I haven't bought Guitar Hero is because I own a real frickin' guitar!
Not a Fisher Price's "My First Guitar"

ya, see there's a thing in my town about noise pollution after 10PM xD
either way it works for me when I can't load up my real guitar. I just said "Load up" didn't I? Wow Hardcore Phail. But ya, if I can't pull out the real guitar, I'll stand for rockband. Because quite frankly, I like being a no name indy band heh.

This is where I keep my volume at:

Crank it up to 11!
I typically have my Distortion/Overdrive volumn set to 1-2 (Gain to 5) and Clean volumn set to 3. Equallizers 5 5 10 (high mid low).
I still live with my parents so can't overly blast it out, ontop of which anything louder than say 3 or 4 on the Overdrive will deafen me. I don't want to put a hole in the floor or shake the house down

If we do cover tracks, volume stays high anyways, Shoulda seen our Aerosmith cover work last summer, was a great hit, we opened for a local band called "Rocket In My Pocket". Too bad we stole the show. We got a valentines day gig, not a big payout, but one of the clubs who lets us do local stuff a lot, We're working on new crap. Assuming we get off our butts and physically do it *timshot*
stop dogging me on Rock Band Dangit~
Isn't it illegal or something?
