    I'm willing to bet FF7 or even Naruto surpass that in terrifying numbers.

    "Facebook" "Activision" "Like". There's much in that headline sentence that I cringe at the thought at. #guitarhero

    i know several dozens of people and many more friends of friends that click nearly every fan page opportunity they are sent or click it because someone told them to. i'm not attempting to argue the popularity of the title, but this is hardly an accurate method of obtaining bragging rights. #guitarhero

    I'll be impressed when they catch up to Lady Gaga (4,241,147 fans) and Vin Diesel (6,604,364 fans).

    I'd also like to hypothesize that Guitar Hero is tailored more towards teens (first, which seems the fastest growing population of Facebook; second, not everyone sees it as a "kiddie" game, this is just based on in depth discussions friends and I have had), which is why this madness has happened. #guitarhero

    @Americo: In most cases I would laugh at Vin Diesel. But I thought he was alright in the Riddick movies and Knockaround Guys (I know, it's kinda dumb, but I like it).

    He just needs to pick better movies to be in. I've never seen a Fast and Furious movie to this day just for the record. #guitarhero

    I guess they had to fire back with SOMETHING after Harmonix revealed that The Beatles dominated the music game sales last month.

    But there is nothing impressive about this stat. I've seen people get more "Fans" simply by saying "If I get to 2 million fans my girlfriend will have sex with me"

    If they're lucky, they'll be able to brag about how DJ Hero broke sales records for music games debuting on a Tuesday that also introduce a new peripheral. #guitarhero

    @shaunmcilroy: Seconded. 3 was my first and last GH game, since then I've moved to Rock Band.

    Described as blasphemy in Europe where Rock Band is commonly seen as the inferior product, but at least 6 DLC tracks a week to pick from? An excellent on-disc setlist? It's hard to turn that down in favour of recent Guitar Hero games where I don't recognise half of the stuff on the disc. #guitarhero

    @James Henderson: 3 was also my first guitar hero. I went on to buy 2 After I got an xbox 360, then Rockband. Because Harmonix is better at making rhythm games than Activision. #guitarhero

    I keep forgetting to sign up for this game. It looks fun enough.

    I'll have to give it a try some time soon.

    @b-radicate: For the price, you can't complain. It's free, there's a relatively large player base, and the character customization (as in leveling up skills, not paying for useless clothing) is nice. My biggest issue with the game was that it only had a handful of maps at launch (four, I believe), but it looks like they might rectify that over time.

    At worst, you don't like the game and lose a few hours figuring that out. At best, you like it and you didn't pay a dime for it.

    It's a lot of fun, as long as you find a non-hacky server. The userbase is awful, though. It's like the kids who's parents wouldn't buy them Counterstrike all converge there.
