It was last week when I saw it at Tampines' Mega Multimedia. Lying in the glass display before me were a whole bunch of X360 Guitar Hero III packages. Now that was a rare sight. I've never seen it available in stores before. As I looked on, an equation formed in my mind: Me + Guitar = Fun! But time was a-wasting, so I brushed aside the thought and went home with RB6V2.
However, that thought lingered over the next few days and I soon found myself yearning for the game. I think it was due to a lot of sublimal messages and influences that I came across when I was surfing the net. Ranging from game forum discussions to comics strips to watching the full South Park Guitar Queer-O episode (I only recently learnt that full South Park episodes can be watched for free at the official site) Then of course, there was this crazy Guitar Hero contest that totally reminded me of rejects from American Idol:
That was it. I finally decided that I would get the game today. I actually wanted to hold it off till the weekends as a birthday gift to myself but I couldn't wait any longer. haha. I endured through a day at work then quickly cabbed down to Tampines Mall. Somehow, my penguin senses told me something would go wrong.
When I arrived at the store, I quickly went to the glass display and eyeballed the boxes of Guitar Hero III. PS3, PS3, Wii, Wii, PS3. Where the heck were all the X360 versions? I felt that I already knew the answer but I just had to ask the salesperson. Yup, the X360 was sold out. No. Freakin'. Way.
The journey home felt so cold and empty. Time to carry on with the sadface. T_T
