As far as I can see the whammy bar serves absolutely zero purpose in GHL. Gone are the days off trying to whammy out every last bit of SP you possibly could. It makes my heart heavy to say goodbye to my tiny plastic rod.

Working the whammy in the previous games really helped me develop my manual dexterity, which in turn made me the pro level masturbator I am today. For that I am grateful.

If anyone else would like to say some words in memory of our friend, this is the place to do it.

i cannot for the life of me think of any reason why they might've left the thing on there knowing it served absolutely no purpose

I thought whammying was giving more points. I've been fooled for the last 10 years.

Damnit !

RIP GRYBO and whammy bar, you will forever be missed. Not that I was a huge fan of the whammy bar, but still, it was an interesting factor that made high-scoring a lot more difficult, even though it kinda died with the GH3 engine...

Must resist the urge to make a dildo joke...

I asked FSG directly why they decided to make the whammy essentially useless, waiting on a response...

Believe me, dildo jokes were definitely the point of that line...

I'm really glad my first two posts on this message board dealt with masturbating and dildos.

Don't you know? In the GH2 tutorial it told me that the whammy bar was for "self-expression" or some sort. I'm expressing myself by slamming down on my whammy like a banchee
