The Guitar Hero Thread

[Mattman]

I would like to say that I hate Slash.

[-A-]

I would like to complain that the game's difficulty curve is FUCKING SHIT.

[Mattman]

Is there any way of making GHII work on my PS3? The wireless light goes off when the PS2 game boots up.

Still hating Slash.

[Benji]

I know, right?

I won't be completing Hard, nevermind Expert.

I've got everything complete on hard but that, and quite frankly it can stay that way

[Cactus Drags]

I couldn't even figure it out in practice mode There's a whole database of help threads over at scorehero, but to be quite honest, I'm playing a game, not learning to drive, I can't be fucked investing that much time into what amounts to a pretty shitty song anyway.

Yeah, Raining Blood is the one song I need to finish to get to the battle with Lou on expert. I actually managed to get a 2X mutliplier on the Mosh 1 part at the beginning before fucking up again and failing out. Thing is when I do it in practice mode I can easily get through the rest of the song without messing up horribly starting with Mosh 2.

Raining Blood on hard is impossible.

I don't care if you show me scientific evidence to the contrary, I'll still say it.

Do you HO/PO the notes on mosh 1? I usually go mad with HO/PO's but Mosh 1 on expert as well as the one solo are the two things i found easier if you just strum like crazy to the rhythm of every note. That way is you miss a note you can easily pick it back up. I can actually do Mosh 1 everytime on expert now with that trick, and usually struggle on the rest of the song. Lou on expert is nothing to look forward though.

[Mattman]

Slash is my bitch now.

DLC News:

A new track pack for Guitar Hero III is now available on Xbox Live Marketplace. Entitled the Modern Metal pack, the new DLC includes three new tracks from the Deftones, Avenged Sevenfold, and Thrice. As an added bonus, all three tracks are master tracks. The tracks, which will run you 500 MS Points, are as follows:

* "Hole in the Earth" by Deftones

* "Almost Easy" by Avenged Sevenfold

* "The Arsonist" by Thrice

In addition to the Modern Metal pack, Activision has also announced that a special pack is in the works for St. Patrick's Day later this month. The pack will include songs by the Celtic punk band Dropkick Murphys. The three (master) tracks that will be available on the pack are "Famous for Nothing," "(F)lannigan's Ball" and "Johnny, I Hardly Knew Ya." Best of all, the track pack will be free. Expect it to arrive (you guessed it) sometime before St. Patrick's Day.

Now Fitzy can put down Rock Band for a moment!

[Fitzy]

I can, and I will! Wonderful, wonderful!

[cram]

This is a testament to how hard Raining blood is. I've 5 starred every song on expert except for Cliffs of Dover, still can't PASS raining blood.

[AnnIQ Edison]

FUCK YEAH!!!!!!!!!! RAINING BLOOD YOU CAN KISS MY HARD LEVEL BEATING ASS!!!!!!! THATS RIGHT!!!!!

Ahem.... .......*backs away slowly*

[Cactus Drags]

As lovely as the notechart is, I can't get past the solo on One, particularly the bit with the green/red/blue and no HOPOs (I think iot's fast solo B in practice mode). Any advice?

[King Ellis]

Dropkick Murphy's tracks are now on XBLM for FREE.

[Cadet Ember McLain]

For how long?

[King Ellis]

Forever, I guess. I haven't heard anything about them being time limited in either avalibility or cost (or lack thereof).

[Fitzy]

Going from Rock Band to Guitar Hero is not a good move at all. I just can't hit the notes correctly on GH.

[Cactus Drags]

Again, I love Dropkick Murphys, but what an odd choice of songs. Seriously, no Tessie? No Shipping Up to Boston? Christ.
