Does Anyone Else Love Playing Guitar Hero/Rock Band

[enginerd]

We have one family of relatives that come over all the time because we love playing Guitar Hero and Rock Band together. We are 40-somethings. and two kids (20 and 11). We played for 5 hours last night until we broke the drums - need to get a replacement cymbal. Four of us can play at once (guitar, bass guitar, drums, and singer) and we take turns rotating through. We've had our Wii since Christmas and I thought we would get tired of playing after a while, but we are obsessed. Our favorite is Beatles Rock Band. Does anyone else love playing as much?

I loooooved Rock Band the few times I got to play it. My teen sister got one of those fancy-pants X-box systems last year and we got her the Rock Band for it (and I always end up calling it Guitar Weirdo; I don't know why). I would still be playing it if she hadn't already torn it up somehow. I think the disc is scratched or something.

We have a Wii system here and I've come thisclose to buying the Beatles Rock Band game to go with it because I have seen it marked down to about half of what it went for originally. We're just not big gamers and don't play often, so I haven't really been able to justify the purchase, but I think I would really really really enjoy it. I am a 40something, too, and my husband is a 50something. Dang, now I really really really want it.
