I picked this game up for a dollar at Gamestop and wow it blows, but a typing of the dead ripoff using a guitar hero controller with Rob Zombie on the soundtrack? Sounds like a steal to me.

I liked the idea of a rail shooter-type game that used a Guitar Hero controller, but it just didn't work nearly as well as it should've. I think I also remember the rhythm segments had the orientation of the note highway horizontal (as opposed to Guitar Hero/Rock Band's vertical orientation), which I hated.
