Yeah, sad part is your fingers have played a song a certain way, or when you hear a note you know where the fingers should be placed without even thinking about it.
Like you hear a chord (lets just say a simple C chord or G, or maybe a Dsus7) and your fingers just know where to go. When I am playing Ziggy Stardust on GH1 my fingers are used to a G chord, then a D alternating Dsus4 to D back and forth... The fingers know where to go but GH and the controller and even the way they arrange your fingers on the GH controller fretboard on expert is no where close so my instincts of Ziggy Stardust on the 'real' guitar argues with what my brain is trying to tell it to do...
I saw that south park episode of Guitar Queer-O the other day and it made me laugh so hard when Stan's father is trying to get the boys to play the real guitar and they say "Real guitar is for old people".... So many have GH competitions at bars here locally and so many pride themselves on how good they are at GH but I really like that the real guitar requires more skill, by far, than GH gives credit for. Gives us 'real world' guys a 1 up :-)
