[@voxlvalyx]

Ashens being unfamiliar with the sad onion? This *is* old.

[@UnknownSect333]

It even uses the same menu sound effects as "Guitar Hero II"... why is that not surprising?

[@procksomaterman]

why the hell did you place that noise at the end of the video

[@CardboardOdyssey]

procksomaterman because ashens doesn't give a shit about us, and that's why he's great

[@ChickenPika]

The graphics remind me of the original Fallout.

[@TheZaz969]

ChickenPika Thats an insult to the original Fallout.

[@ChickenPika]

TheZaz969 It's an insult only if you consider "having good graphics for a time where graphics were never particularly impressive" to mean "having bad graphics" or "being a bad game," then sure. Otherwise, no.

[@TheZaz969]

What i meant is the graphics weren't even comparable to graphics of the time of the original fallout.

[@ChickenPika]

I guess what I meant wasn't so much the graphics as how the characters move. I fucking love both Fallout and Fallout 2. I didn't intend to insult the games or how fun they are.

[@TheZaz969]

yeah, the silky smooth 10 fps that is this game. Also, I havent played the original fallouts but i have respect for them.

[@Pit_Wizard]

Jesus Christ, what is that screeching at the end?

[@blodguizer]

First hello intro and first sad onion. 10/10

[@tehblackarachnid]

Actually Ashens, the artists in the tracklist are big...just the guy in charge of the box screwed up the credits and credited individual band members...or one of the members, credited the wrong album (Summer song by Joe Satriani is NOT on Strange Beautiful music) or they just misspelled the artists' names (Joe Satriani is now Joe Satnani). It's quite a good artist list (Pearl Jam, Deep Purple, System of a Down) Problem is for the most part they picked album only songs, not singles

At last The origin of the "Not Sad Onions" and the other things

The first video to have the classic intro

[@mrfuzzer1]

That sound at the end woke me up, im now a sad onion.

[@bigbigarchive]

0:35 When I heard that I thought there was something wrong with my laptop.

[@SharkBait19904]

I used to play Guitar Hero and then I decided to learn how to play an actual guitar. Got to say it's much better knowing how to play a song on a real guitar then a plastic one. A friend I used to hang out with one day said "I finally beat Crazy Train-Ozzy Osborne on Guitar Hero on whatever the hardest difficulty (haven't played in years not going to look it up) is with no missed keys 100%" and then I told him "I can play that song on my electric guitar" then he looked at me and said "That's not as impressive". I just sighed and walked away.

[@drummerdude476]

No need to hate on anyone for liking the game. I can play both (even though I'm a drummer lol)

[@TracReed]

***** The thing is. The original comment never say anything about that if you play guitar hero you should also want to play a real guitar it was simply him telling us about a personal experience with one of his friends that plays guitar hero.

[@TracReed]

***** Yeah I didn't want to really argue about something. Just felt like pointing it out. Though what you said is also true so there isn't really anything to argue about this was just a case of misunderstanding it happens to all of us.

[@TracReed]

***** Oh this girl? It's a picture made by someone for the song "lily - scarlet rose" I am not sure if it's some character from something but that is how I found it.
