show and tell: crazy rhythm games

I just wanted to share a bit about the myriad of rhythm games out there. Everyone knows by now about Dance Dance Revolution, and Guitar Hero has made its way into homes across America, but most people don't know there are games for tons of other instruments too. I got hooked on Guitar Freaks (japanese predecessor to Guitar Hero) a while back at my local arcade and dug around to find stuff like DrumMania and some crazy turntable and keyboard games.

Andy:

Interesting links. Do these games make people better musicians? Are musicians good at them? Or is it all about computer/eye/hand coordination. Are soldiers good at AA? Does being good at AA make you a soldier?
