thats very true.. and it shows too... at the start of his post he said he wanted to quickly get wii music out of the way so he could get back to fable 2 and fallout 3, which he had no doubt been enjoying quite heavily.. and then after that initial rush with those two games he noticed that these games he liked at first, did not have the gameplay life nor value that his other new game did

Great observation Words!

Wow, you beat Fable 2 and Fallout 3 in 2 days?

Goes to show you that value preceeds everything else in importance.

I am addicted to the Drums part of Wii Music where you use the Balance board in combination with the Wiimote and Nunchuk. I have been going through the lessons and I really feel gratified when I can complete a small pattern. Its great that you have all the pieces of a drumset as opposed to the 3 or 6 for Guitar Hero. There is a learning curve for understanding how to strike each piece of the drum set.

This game is more like learning music traditionally. I have played Guitar Hero. Good game. But one thing its not is learning the different parts of an instrument and how they can be combined. It also isnt a rythm game where you have to learn how to combine different parts of the instrument to achieve different sounds.

I dont think Wii Music is better than Guitar Hero or vice-versa. Its just a different experience. I am glad I am not the only one who sees it this way.

Actually he said beat Fable 2 in a day, and Fallout 3 in two days. So that's a total of three days.

@Nightstriker - Have you spent much time with the Drum mode?

I've only made it through five lessons myself to make it obvious how musically illiterate I am. Unlike the normal jam sessions, the special Drum session is completely off the rails and you’re left entirely to your own talent to keep up with the song, or rewrite it entirely. I find it’s easily the most challenging.

Glad your enjoying it. From your statements I assume you have some musical background already? Out of curiousity how much do you think that affects your affection for this game?

As mtofu suggests I too think it's more of an acquired taste than something anyone could enjoy. I'm pretty tonedeaf myself, I don't think I'd really get anything out of it but my son might. Mind you he already plays keyboard and guitar and sees Wii Music only as a toy.

It's actually really surprising but I've been hearing good things about this game. It really just confuses me.

Perhaps I'll give it a rent.

It's like Excite Truck in the sense it either grips you, or it doesn't. One of these things where there's a click for some people.

Excite Truck is still one of my favorite games that I still pick up from time to time.  >_>

I knew that, it's very much the same for me. I'm still dying for a sequel with online multiplayer.

I'm not saying if you like Excite Truck you'll like Wii Music, I'm saying it's the same kind of odd kick where it just sort of sucks you in and you're not sure why. Not everyone experiences that, so it's impossible to tell without trying it first.

HAHA EPIC!! I just have so save that picture on my computer
