Nowadays there are so many different methods of learning the guitar (even through video games like you highlighted). I do know to play a few chords, but I play more just to relax. I’ve never used software to learn, but something to look into.

Garage Band for the Mac users out there

Garageband offers some tutorials right in the software for both piano and guitar. Additionally, you can download additional lessons and get access to artists lessons. If you’ve just bought a Mac and are messing around with Garageband for the first time, this could be a blast. The Artist lessons feature rock/pop stars teaching one of their songs (Sting teaches how to play “Roxanne,” as I recall)
