By now you've heard about the critically acclaimed music game for the PS2, Guitar Hero. Because the game comes with a rad guitar controller, it may be considered a bit pricey for some CAGs, but RedOctane and Cheap Ass Gamer are giving the CAG community a chance to score one for free!

To enter, post in this thread, either a picture or video of yourself showing us your best Guitar Hero/rockstar impression. I will choose 5 or so finalists and the winner will be voted on by the CAG community. Only entries with a picture or video will be eligible. You may post a drawing (of your own creation) instead of a photograph or video. Feel free to post now and edit your post later to link to your picture/video.

One entry per person!


If you need a place to host your picture or video, check out http://www.imageshack.us/ and/or http://www.putfile.com/

Contest ends 12/9/05. One entry per person. Rules subject to change.

Thanks, RedOctane!
 
"Can't Forget This" Post

EDIT: MY digital camera will make a 1 minute video a high quality 20-30 MB file. Is there any way to shrink these down or lower the quality?
 
I would have never thought to do something like this...But I guess my guitar at home could use a little publicity. =D

Fun pic - not a contest entry
 
Pic of me singing "Kiss" (Prince version) at my wedding. Obviously not a guitar hero impression, but definitely a rockstar impression.



Not the greatest quality...scanned it from our wedding book.

I could never understand why people who have a game already (so it appears since you and your friend are using the gibson controllers from the game) would enter a contest unless you wanted a second copy to ebay? :whistle2:k Eh well, will try to post pic later.
 
or maybe they just want to post pictures of themselves online and this would make a good excuse to do so. either way. funny thread so far.
 
Great thread and contest...but I am worried to actually see what some of you well-respected CAGers look like. I guess some stereotypes are more than true.

Oh no! You don't look like Christopher Walken at all :whistle2:( Another image ruined...
 
Been wanting this game so much, but I can't afford it right now. I think it should be fairer if the prize went to someone who actually didn't have Guitar Hero - ME! :lol:

My pics are boring compared to the rest of you. But I don't have my guitar with me and these two are the only pics I have with me playing it.

I'm the one wearing the cap.
 
Yeah - sorry about that. Always a bummer to attach a face to the avatar, eh?

Just a little tip, guys, if you take a picture of you actually playing a Guitar Hero controller, for a contest that's essentially for people begging to get their hands on one, you're probably NOT going to win.
