Is playing Guitar Hero like a real guitar playing?

Answer 1

Of course not. It is much harder. There are usually about eighteen frets, and they get bigger (at the top) and smaller (at the bottom). You have only four fingers, you don't use your thumb. There are all kinds of positions and ways to pick, like finger-picking, bar chords, chords, single-notes, sharp and flat notes, power chords (which are usually used in rock songs), alternate picking, pull-offs, hammer-ons.... Guitar Hero is just what people want to believe is like playing guitar. If you want to play guitar, you need to start at small, because it is one of the hardest instruments to play, due to its complex and multiple ways to play it.
