	~~Actual guitarists have said that~~ ''Guitar Hero'' ~~doesn't help you learn~~ to play guitar, ~~and have themselves struggled playing the game--they~~ said they needed to ~~first~~ forget ~~everything about~~ how to play guitar. ~~Even those~~ who ~~enjoy the game~~ are aware that mashing buttons on a plastic guitar neither looks or functions like a real guitar fretboard. The controller has little in common with instruments that actually ''do'' feature buttons, such as the keyboard or trumpet. There's also no consistency between the ingame buttons and the actual notes being played.		''Guitar Hero'' is meant as a game first and foremost, and not an actual way of learning how to play the guitar, something both actual guitarists (some of whom said they needed to "forget" how to play guitar in order to not struggle with its controller as much) and fans of the series can attest to. Those who have played it are aware that mashing buttons on a plastic guitar neither looks or functions like a real guitar fretboard. The controller has little in common with instruments that actually ''do'' feature buttons, such as the keyboard or trumpet. There's also no consistency between the ingame buttons and the actual notes being played; the main focus is timing your button presses and strums with the music.

	Chris, however, seems to believe that playing ''Guitar Hero'' is a feat on par with playing a genuine guitar. For example, in [[Sonichu 10\|''Sonichu'' #10]], Chris takes his PS3 and Gitar of Fail with him on his band tour. During [[Sonichu 8\|''Sonichu'' #8]], he also explains that [[Blanca]] plays the ''Guitar Hero'' for [[Jiggliami]]'s band, which implies that the band only performs covers of songs from the games. In the ''SingStar'' Challenge, Chris specifically forbade the use of real instruments as well as ''Guitar Hero'' guitars. In what may be the most mind-blowing example yet, Chris dismissed a real, actual, non-video-game-controller guitar as a "[[Katie Bay E-mails 3#31 July\|Wooden Nickel]]".

	Because Chris thinks he's talented in every respect, he also loves to pretend he's a musical [[geinus]], evident with his virtual band [[Christian and the Hedgehog Boys]] wherein he tunelessly wails over low-quality recordings of popular pop songs. However, because he doesn't know how to play an instrument, he feels the need to justify himself by claiming ''Guitar Hero'' gives him musical ability. We can only wonder what ''exactly'' was going through his head when he shredded with mad apathy in the notorious "[[CWC Music Video Holding Out For a Hero\|Holding Out for a Hero]]" music video (the song itself has ~~no guitars~~), and wonder whether he can tell his "guitar" doesn't make any sounds besides plastic clacking in his cover of "[[100 2266\|Don't Laugh at Me]]".

	The ''Guitar Hero'' games, later entries in particular, base themselves around the idea that rock music can do anything, as seen in classic rock videos and album covers. Chris has seemingly taken inspiration from this for his comics, such as ''Sonichu'' #10, where he uses the Power of Rock to demolish the [[4-cent_garbage.com]] building.
