We've waited for months for this day, and lo, it has arrived. Guitar Hero II is out and ready to allow you to jam to the likes of Aerosmith, KISS, Alice Cooper, Stone Temple Pilots, and even shed a tear for My Chemical Romance. Packed with 74 songs and downloadable content available in the coming weeks, this spring is starting off with a bang. So here at Fanboy Towers, only two Fanbloggers have the intention of getting the game, half of which are able to pick it up today, and we'll let you take the wild guess who's who in that situation. But the situation we want to know is whether any of you, dear readers, are planning on busting out the tunes today. Who here is going to rock out and grab GHII today? How about later?

Too expensive, man. I like Guitar Hero, but not enough to fork over almost $100 to play it at home. I'll just go to Best Buy and play theirs for free until the price drops.

My local target just told me it was recalled and would not sell it. Brilliant.

No way I'm buying this wired item for $90. I'll wait until they give us wireless. This is just retarded, do they know it's 2007?

I want it now but my 360 bricked recently and I need to save money to fix it. Man I'm pissed. It had better be fixed before the Halo 3 beta.

I'm trying to concentrate on work for the next 30 minutes -- after that, I'm off to Gamestop to be their preorder slave. I feel so dirty.

I'm out to pick mine up after work. This is the first game I have ever preordered. I am a relative n00b to the game but after playing it once at a Wal-Mart (which was embarrassing) I was hooked.
But as a left handed person I still can't figure out which hand to use. Right now I suck equally on either hand.
Let's hope that wireless controller will be available before Q3 of this year.

I have a question for those who say $20 is too much.
Wasn't GH2 $79.99 when it came out on PS2?
I thought that was the price point and if it was just because this game is a 'port' doesn't mean it should be available for $49.99.
It's a full game with lots of tracks. Add a controller into the mix and I can't figure out what price point people that complain wanted for this thing.
I'm not trying to be rude. (heck I'm lucky to have a job where I can afford fun stuff like this from time to time) I'm far more interested in seeing what price points people find this product should have been placed at.

Picked mine up at 10:00am when Circuit City opened. And got the free 1600 point card.
Interestingly enough, you can get the free card if you order online through CC also.
I want the wireless guitar, but I also want two guitar's for co-op, so when the wireless hit's I'll buy it separate and have two guitars.

I also was pestering Gamestop before they started taking reservations. Got my reserve in the day they started taking them. Actually thought about taking the day off from work to get it and play. Thankfully I'm not that big a nerd.
I'll pick it up after work and rock out tonight.

I'll be getting mine on Friday from RedOctane, I ordered the two-guitar bundle. It was a bit steep but this game is a blast and I can't wait for some battles in 1080 HD.

you guys complaining about the $90 price should try living over in the UK where the RRP is $140 ! still intrigued by the thought of it though..
