- I was going to go into this huge rant about how the PS2 Kramer is the best guitar ever made, how could you have it last, etc.. until I GIS'd it and realized that the Kramer is the new one and the SG was the good one. I agree with your ordering, except I hate the RB Strat due to the not-clickyness, and I really like the 360 Xplorer for some reason. I would just switch those two. Also because I can't beat Jordan Expert on anything but the SG.
- CoD4 is the best FPS ever made. Ever.
*disclaimer - I don't actually own a 360, but I play Rock Band and CoD4 at a friend's house, and I own CoD4 for the PC (Xfire name is pvtgflo, add me y'all). |
The non-clikyness of the Strat takes a little bit to get used to, but doesn't really change the play too much. It can actually be beneficial, as you don't have to strum as far for the strum to register (you can typically strum about halfway). Although for the really fast sections, it's pretty hard to do that, and you end up strumming the full length anyway (but the clicks really don't help that much in the really fast sections). The Strats also go back to the reliable "ball bearing in a tube" method of Star Power/Overdrive, instead of the accelerometers in the 360 and GH3 guitars. The tube method is much less twitchy, and you typically won't set it off by just adjusting yourself or sitting down/standing up (although some strats, not all, are a bit on the hard side to activate). The biggest downside to the strats are that they wear out rather quickly. While after a few months of high performance playing they were still functional, the first generation (at least, we'll see about newer ones) gave a much more lackluster performance, and were very difficult to play well. Luckily you can send them back under warranty and get free replacements!
Also, I don't own a 360 either. PS3 ftw
