Just 5 More Minutes...Vol. 2.
Mr Wilson \| 1:22 PM on 11.19.2007	12 comments

Greetings. Greetings. Welcome to Just 5 More Minutes...Vol. 2.

Video games can be an addicting habit. Not so much as, you know, serial rape or masturbation, but still pretty bad.

I am here to discuss the games that cause this phenomenon in gamers.

There have been too many days where I hang my head and chug red bull all day at work due to lack of sleep. The reason? Well lately, it has been Guitar Hero 3. In fact, I should edit the title for today’s game…

Greetings. Greetings. Welcome to Just ONE MORE SONG...Vol. 2.

It started with Guitar Hero. It only got worse with Guitar Hero 2. 80’s edition wasn’t my cup of tea, but now my addiction has reached new heights with Guitar Hero 3. “Just one more song”. I can’t even count how many times I have said that while playing one of these games. My roommate and I said it enough times during an expert co-op career this past weekend that we reached the end of the game in two sittings. With the addition of online play, it only makes it worse. This is the first online multiplayer game where I don't mind losing. It doesn’t take anything away from the overall experience. The side effects of this particular addiction are aching feet and palms and the tendency to see a note chart on your head while listening to music. ANY MUSIC! Even if it isn't in any of the games. I pictured the note chart for that McDonalds song the other day. DO DO DO DO DO IM LOVIN IT. I 100%-ed that shit in my head, dammit!

Are there any other GH afflicted D-toiders out there?
Anyone up for a match later?

Didn't like GH3 like GH2. I play the guitar so im very picky when the notes don't line up with the songs.

I also dont like it when then notes dont line up exactly with the song in a music rhythm game. But yah I love Guitar Hero on Hard/Expert cuz then they tend to line up

Yea, you and King read the future yester-week. You correctly predicted exactly what i would be doing next. I have a strong feeling the next one will be about Rock Band.

Ohh man I hate it when you play the game and then you stop and look at something else and it looks like the wall or whatever else you are looking at starts trailing off like the note chart.

I can't start a game of cod4 later than 10 oclock or I'll be up until 4 in the morning, so yeah, I know what you're talking about

You forgot to mention the fact that your roommate is an infinitely superior Guitar Hero player and that you would have failed One on expert without me doing the solo.

@R2thaC..who is a homo

What a dick you are! You would have failed one....without me doing your mom. A-hole.

You're the one who can't stop talking about putting dicks in his mouth.

I hate the fact that your grandparents grandparents ancestors ever met and the fact that none of them pulled out saving this world from your existence.
