#2Anyone think this will be a real game-changer?
At least now my friends can't complain that the game is easy because there's no actual strings/chords to play.

#4I think there's an age cut-off where people go from thinking this is cool to being embarrassed to own one.

Because if you're a beginning guitarist you don't get any feedback. The game could be more useful for learning guitar than anything else.

Objective feedback -> faster learning.

What kind of feedback do you need? It just seems to me that console games producers are under the impression that console games are the answer to everything when in fact its much more impressive when someone can actually do something like play a real guitar or cook a real meal then if they do it on an XBox or a DS especially when they charge so much for things like guitar hero. It would be better if they provided an interface for you to plug an electric guitar into your console and learn to play using the software, then when you've learn you can 1. play a real guitar and 2. have a real guitar without the non standard socket they will inevitablely put on it.

A system like this provides visual flashes and feedback, virtual fans, fireworks, and all the extra bonuses that you don't get when you're just playing the guitar by yourself. It also guides new guitar players through the process of learning specific songs of increasing difficulty, all of which can easily be accessed from one location, rather than forcing them to look up tabs themselves.
In short, it makes the learning process easier from the start, and less boring for younger ones who might not have the patience and stick-to-it needed to master a normal guitar.
