So, I'm a massive fan of music games. I'll shamefully admit

tragically addicted to Dance Dance Revolution about 10 years
ago.
Recently, it's Guitar Hero and Rock Band.
I quite like the band ensemble games, they're good party
games, and
great rhythm practise that's actually applicable to real
instrument
skills too.
I wouldn't agree with that, at least not for Guitar Hero. I had
issues with the timing. When I played I tried to time the
music, but that didn't work. Instead I had to time the screen
to get any points.
As a lifelong musician this annoyed the hell out of me. The whole
experience ends up like reading annoying flashy sheet music. Low
latency is critical.
