Guitar Hero

Def 1: A popular multi-platform game franchise in which you play songs on a psuedo-guitar shaped like a Gibson Les Paul. In the fashion of Dance Dance Revolution, different colored "fret" markers come down the screen at you, prompting you to press the corresponding "fret buttons" and strum the "strum bar" to play the corresponding note(s). Naturally, as with all things that get really popular, really fast, Guitar Hero gets a lot of criticism, mostly from those that have devoted their time to learning to play the real guitar. However, the people that the guitarists are making fun of aren't all those who indulge in Guitar Hero (aka GHero). They are making fun of the... Def 2: Guitar heroes (a guitar hero, refering to a person). A guitar hero is a person who believes that mastering a song in GHero (or even, in some cases, just being able to play it in GHero) is just as good as being able to play it. Naturally, this kind of mind-set is usually limited to basement dwellers and furrys, but some guitarists think it applies to all those who play GHero. That, naturally, is not the case. All those that truly are guitar heros should, instead, become an heros.
