John Mayer: 'Guitar Hero Fans Are Fake Wannabes'

Jennifer Aniston's new man takes a dig at the game...

Thursday 05th Jun 2008

John Mayer is not a fan of the game Guitar Hero, because he thinks it makes it easy for untalented people to pretend they are good at playing the instrument.

Jennifer Aniston’s bitter new man claims no game could ever match the enjoyment gained from playing the axe for real.

He tells Rolling Stone: "Guitar Hero was devised to bring the guitar-playing experience to the masses without them having to put anything into it.

“And having done both, there's nothing like really playing guitar. I mean, what would you rather drive, a Ferrari or one of those amusement-park cars on a track?"

He may be able to play a guitar, but that doesn’t mean his songs are any good.

  • Has John Mayer actually played Guitar Hero? In my view it absolutely does not "bring the guitar-playing experience to the masses" - it's a videogame and doesn't pretend to be anything more than a vague approximation of guitar playing

  • Hey John, want to make fun of gamers and their interests? Lets talk about your Ford GT that looks like a hotwheels car on the road. You couldn't have possibly picked an uglier color scheme for that extremely lame ride. Was your car another attempt at grabbing attention like you so love to do? I would maybe concentrate more on your career and music choices than worrying about what others do with their lives. Nothing like ignorant celebrities to bring a smile to your day. :D Cheers!

  • Way to make people think your ignorant (mayer). Playing Guitar Hero or Rock Band isn't about making people believe they can play the guitar, it's about giving people a simulated feeling of playing one. Most people understand this. Mayer is missing what this does to the people that play it. First and foremost this will make people want to learn to play the guitar. But perhaps more importantly is how by playing these games you learn to appreciate music in a much deeper way than before.

  • It's a *game* so ...yeah, he's right, but in a completely useless way. In comparison, OBVIOUSLY nothing beats John Mayer's lips around my **** but he seems to be settling for Jennifer Maniston's, so ...glass houses, anyone?
