I agree, the games are not good if you want to learn the guitar, but nobody plays the game expecting to learn an instrument. If I'm going to play guitar hero it's because I want to hear the song. And playing a game with a controller in your hand gives a lot more immersion and enjoyment than staring at visualizations on the computer.Musical videogames are no replacement for learning how to play music, but not everybody wants to learn how to play music. I'm a video editor with no interest in dedicating time to learn how to play an instrument, but I still like to fantasize. Next thing you know musicians will start backlashing against air guitar, saying "it's no replacement for the real guitar"
