Not at all. Atleast not real guitar players who play classic rock. I'll give you a perfect example. If anyone has noticed a lot of teenagers have been getting into bands like Kansas, The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin (I know they aren't in the game), The Who, ect.
I have had people come up to me and say "HEY DID YOU EVER HEAR THAT SONG "PAINT IT BLACK" BY THE ROLLING STONES?!?!" My response is "Yes, of course, where did you hear it?" "Guitar Hero" said the other guy. Then I asked him if he could name 5 of their songs and he was puzzled. All of a sudden people start acting like they are classic rock experts after playing Guitar Hero. In my opinion Guitar Hero has ruined all of that music.

thats exactly how i feel. I started out listening to classic rock and moved on to metal, and more rock music, and people do that to me all the time. One of my friends bought GH2 and I think thats the one with Lamb of God's Laid to rest, next day at school he wore a LoG t shirt and thought he knew everything about them and he couldn't name any other song by them. the same thing happened to another guy he bought GH and got an ironmaiden t shirt and thought he knew everything about them to but he could only name one song. and another time (yes i have a good number of friends that play GH) they did it with pantera and they couldn't name any other song other than cowboys from hell. which i thought was sad because we live in texas (pantera being from texas)
I've played guitar for five years now, and i played guuitar hero a few times at my friends house. It was okay, I definetly wouldn't buy it. But thought it was funny to see some of the people i know that are really good at GH act all bad A$$ when they're playing it.
