Title: I still have Guitar Hero 1, should I throw it in the garbage?
Post by: demi on January 05, 2008, 04:42:05 PM: I have the guitar pack, but for some reason, the guitar has shit out and always says its unplugged randomly, but when it works, it works just fine. I've considered putting it on ebay, but I'm not sure if it's even worth anything at this point, now that it's flooded with every other Guitar Hero and 3rd party controller in existence.

Now that every other Guitar Hero after it, and Rock Band, pretty much have made it irrelevant to gaming, I'm at a stump on what to do with this excess.

Should I just pitch the guitar and box, keeping only the game for novelty purposes, if I feel like playing Symphony of Destruction on my controller? I don't really want to stuff this in my closet when I know I'll never play it. Rock Band takes up enough room as it is. Too much room.

Post by: Eel O'Brian on January 05, 2008, 04:45:14 PM: Trade it all in while the guitar still works a little. There's obviously something wrong with the connection wire at the plug.

Post by: MrAngryFace on January 05, 2008, 04:45:44 PM: Seriously, if you keep GH2 over GH1 yer a distinguished mentally-challenged fellow

Post by: demi on January 05, 2008, 04:48:14 PM: All I own is Guitar Hero PS2, and Rock Band 360.

Post by: MrAngryFace on January 05, 2008, 04:49:33 PM: well then keep GH1, its got a great track list of classic rock

Post by: demi on January 05, 2008, 04:50:46 PM: The chances of me pulling it out are pretty close to nil, though. Would GameStop even take this bundle in? Where is Jewco to answer this.

I'd probably get like $5 out of pity

Post by: MrAngryFace on January 05, 2008, 04:51:57 PM: probably nothing worth anything. I actually dont trade games in over a year old anymore if I can really help it cause you get like 7 dollars for a game and thats just bullshit. Id rather just give it to someone in most cases. Dont you have a closet you can put the guitar in or maybe put it under the bed?

Post by: Eel O'Brian on January 05, 2008, 04:57:09 PM: Yeah, I didn't consider the low trade-in. Give it to some kids in your neighborhood, you'll be the coolest dude in the world to them

Demi's closet is full of bear porn and he keeps the dead prostitutes under his bed.

Post by: demi on January 05, 2008, 05:02:44 PM: I guess this would be a bit of a non-issue if I bothered to clean out my closet. I still have a Virtual Boy in there.
Title: Re: I still have Guitar Hero 1, should I throw it in the garbage?
Post by: MrAngryFace on January 05, 2008, 05:03:25 PM: haha, maybe you should clean your closet, its like a time capsule

Post by: Joe Molotov on January 05, 2008, 07:45:45 PM: I sold GH1 w/Guitar on Ebay a month ago, and got $50 for it. I also sold GH2 w/Guitar (PS2) and got $70 for that one.

Post by: CajoleJuice on January 05, 2008, 08:31:01 PM: That's not bad. I'm looking to sell GH1+2 w/ guitar for PS2. I was going to give it to a relative, but he said to hang on to it for a bit.

Post by: Yeti on January 05, 2008, 09:20:59 PM: I wonder how much it would cost to ship a guitar, ebay might not even be worthwhile.

Post by: Yeti on January 05, 2008, 11:33:20 PM: I guess that's not so bad, I thought the guitar would be heavier. I've never played a Guitar Hero.

That's nice to offer but I don't have anything I could give you in return. Thanks though.
