From: XBox.com Today at the Virgin Megastore in Times Square, NYC, gamers and rockers alike were treated to an event of heroic proportions. Guitar Hero II recently launched for Xbox 360, and to celebrate, five lucky gamers got the chance to win a jam session with the God of Rock, GENE SIMMONS. Hardcore fans lined up at the front of the stage hoping to see a glimpse of their favorite star including two boys who were no more than 15 years old who took their spots at 6:30 A.M. The youngest told stories of how he went to his first KISS concert when he was three years old. As the contest started, everyone was already in a rockin' mood and the first contestant hit the stage running. Daniel Serna, Kelly Law-Yone, J.W. McNay, Matt Nowak, and Felicia Williams all strummed hard to their songs. All the contestants did a great job, especially since it was the first time in front of an audience for some of them. J.W. rocked the house when it came to his turn. Nobody could match his insane score and he took home a special edition GH II guitar as well as having the chance to play along with Gene. A true rock star, Gene made his grand entrance by coming down an escalator from the floor above. He flashed the rock sign, slapped fans' hands, and made his way through the crowd in style. On the stage, he picked up his axe and with the assistance of J.W. on his Guitar Hero II controller, they belted out "Strutter." It was a great show and both the normally shy J.W. and Gene were rock stars in that moment. Gaming is a great thing! |
