Perhaps, but isn't it easier and cheaper to put real guitars in kids' hands, play them real music, take them to real shows, jam with them, and make the whole process interactive with humans rather than with computers? That's not short-sighted, or a downer, and it IS fun. It's a great investment in people and art. In the process maybe they won't be mislead by the falsehoods of the game.

Naturally, your milage may vary.

Peace, Mooh.
