For those who can't wait. . .
The release date of Guitar Hero II is one month away, but for those who can't stand the wait (like me), there is a quick fix. The new issue of Official PlayStation Magazine has a demo to sate your inner guitar god. Four solidly rockin' songs are on the disc; Mötley Crüe's "Shout at the Devil," Van Halen's "You Really Got Me," "Strutter" by KISS, and "YYZ" from Rush. Rumor has it you can play co-op if you plug a second SG controller into your PS2, but I've yet to test it myself. While the having the full game right now would be nice (not to mention that it would lessen the burden on my poor wallet next month), the demo is fun enough to make the next 30 days bearable.
