Comedy Central’s popular show South Park is at it again, poking fun at the video game community. First it was World of Warcraft, now its Guitar Hero. Hilarious.

So true… so true. Great post Rio.
Why do something in real life when you can play a game of it. “If they spent half the time playing a real game as they do playing an instrument who knows what they might accomplish”…
ha ha ha.
South Park is great at poking fun at the absurdity of our lives. The World of Warcraft episode is among their best: “How do you kill that, which has no life”.
This SP episode answered a question I’ve been asking about Guitar Hero for the LONGEST time…why play a fake guitar when you can learn the real thing? But I’ll admit, it is kinda fun, even though you look like an idiot playing it =)
