It seems like the whole world is suddenly shaking. Rock and heavy metal, once reserved for a relatively small and fairly homogeneous group, are now incredibly popular with all ages and backgrounds.
The reason for this is simple. It’s called Guitar Hero. In what seems like the blink of an eye, millions of people who can’t actually play a guitar, or any other instrument, are rocking out and playing until their fingers hurt, using only a plastic guitar controller and a game console. Kids and adults alike are rocking out for hours trying to master increasingly complex songs.
It’s certainly a great game concept, and thankfully it strays away from the “lonely kids in front of the computer screen for hours” type of game. At least with Guitar Hero they are standing! Where this game really wins with a lot of people is that with the development of the extended games like Guitar Hero World Tour and Rock Band, which also include a drum kit and microphone, it can be great for a group of friends or for the family to play. enjoy together.
So now everyone has a plastic guitar and they all look pretty much the same. But take a look at your favorite rock god and you’ll notice that he has a designer guitar that doesn’t look like anyone else’s – it’s his individual style and trademark. You’ll also have a variety of different guitars to suit what you’re playing or the mood you’re in.
Well, how can you keep up without having to buy many different and more expensive guitar controllers? The answer is that you get a guitar hero skin. Or maybe build a collection of a few of them so it’s like having lots of different guitars but without the expense. Skins, also called faceplates, are a vinyl cover that covers the front of the guitar controller. They come in an incredible variety of colors and designs and more are coming out all the time.
Whatever your preferences, there is sure to be the right skin for you. You can even have them custom made to your own design. Pretty cool maybe, but probably a bit pricey for the average guitar hero. They are practical in use and serve to protect the guitar controller from scratches, finger marks and general dust and dirt.
So if you really want to be individual and feel more like your hero then get yourself some guitar hero skins. Go ahead, stand out from the crowd!
