Isn't that the point at which the game's achievements start telling you to go start a real band?

That's GH II: five-star all songs on Expert.
I'm going to guess that he's got that achievement.

Life is meaningless. There is no such thing as useful. We're all gonna die anyway.

It is worse than that even... At some point, one of the galaxies in the near by cluster is gonna go active and destroy our galaxy with a death ray. For all we know, the kill shot could already be on the way.

That kid better do something even more legendary when he's older, or that will be a talent wasted.
Maybe he will cure cancer, with the power of music.

Guys, give the bloggers here a break! They have to save something to post when there's no news (like the week between Christmas and New Years)!!
BTW-- I want to say how fake this kid is, just so it doesn't hurt my pride so much, but he is incredible!

I think that he actually plays the real guitar as evidenced by the guitar that was next to the TV in one of the videos...either that or on of his parents plays which makes it plausible that he's good given that they have the music gene...

to all you people who are saying stuff like: "let him do something worthwhile" and the like...look at the expression on the kids face and the tone of his voice when he gets that achievement.
THAT is what it's all about.

I want to believe this is legitimate, but how is the kid activating star power? He doesn't tilt the guitar (as far as I can see), but star power automatically activates. Is there some other method to activate star power that I don't know about? If not, then I call shenanigans.

You can activate the star power by pressing the back button. It's right above the whammy bar. I'm sure it's an easier method than tilting the guitar sideways during something that intense.

You can also hit the select button, which is what I usually use.

Why do they make expert so effing hard that only 10 year old kids can play it?.... oh wait.... wtf?
I'm still convinced they need to dumb down the difficulty so that NORMAL people can potentially play through the entire game on all difficulties as opposed to having to just stop after getting to the last destination on hard because you no longer care enough to overcome failing a song. And expert isn't even an option.

oh not this kid again... back in my day all i had was 2-d mario not this. im sure hes gonna get alot of ladies (ha he looks like a troll)when he gets older cause of this. i bet he can't play a lick of real guitar either, and if he wants to get the ladies ever he has to stop wasting his young life on this. and his parents/whoever is taking these videos makes him slave to play the game. wow what a way to show off your son, your family comes over for the holidays, and they aren't impressed... where is your God now?

Why does everyone keep saying "play a real instrument"? Guess what?! He's taking guitar lessons, entirely because he became interested in the guitar from playing Guitar Hero.
But video games are bad and stuff.
