Guitar Hero II is damn hard
I just got done with playing Normal and I was haveing a bit of trouble pushing the blue button ins some of the fast parts. I decide to try 'Surrender" in hard and that shit is to damn fast for my hands. I tried practiciing with the slowest speeds and its still a bit to get the hang of it. I checked the top guy in the leader boards and I don't know how he could have done that shit.

I'm thinking that when artists see how well GH 1 and 2 did, they might start actually using original recordings, not covers. But I would imagine covers would be much cheaper to pay for than the rights to an artists version of the song.
I wonder how this Rock Band game will pan out.
And oh yeah, you want hard? Try Free Bird on Expert.

Yeh but it kinda ruins the fact that someone only made this song famous and instead we're giving you a cover that you may or may not have heard of. In my case I don't pay much attention to the music world so exactly 0 of the covers I have actually known ahead of time. Being most of the music is foreign to me I have little desire to play any songs that I don't already know making the game a bit of a let down.
As for difficulty the damn guitar chords aren't properly placed for anyone who hasn't had hand surgery. My pinky will not stretch as far as they want it to.

There are a couple of problems with that. The first is that in almost all cases, the rights to the original recordings are controlled by the record companies, not the artists themselves. Unlike with the rights to the composition (which the law requires to be licensed at a particular price), the record company can set whatever price they want or simply decide not to license the recordings. The second problem is that they need the individual instrument tracks to be able to mute the guitar when you screw up. Neither of these is a problem with getting a band to do a new recording of one of their own songs, but that would still be a different recording.Skynet wrote:I'm thinking that when artists see how well GH 1 and 2 did, they might start actually using original recordings, not covers.

I know all that, but here's hoping. It's my understanding that all the bonus songs are done by the artists themselves, even though they're not major recording artists like the ones in the main song list.Ex-Cyber wrote:There are a couple of problems with that.

That sucks that you didn't like it. I'm addicted to this game.melancholy wrote:I bought Guitar Hero II with a wireless controller, played it for about two hours, and then returned the controller and sold the game. Even on easy, it was just way too hard for me to do. I could never play a guitar in real life.
Am I the only one that doesnt feel its that hard? You just start on the orange note with your pinky because you hit it the least and then use the other fingers up to red. You simply slide your index to the green. I always thought it was you started on green but that makes hitting organge impossably hard as the pinky isnt the flexiable.

I played the demo at Best Buy and it seemed pretty easy. Of course it was an easy difficulty, and it was STP which I heard was easy anyway, but I caught on right away. Then again, not to brag, I'm really good at rhythm games. It's really the only genre (is that a genre?) that I'm actually decent with.RMD wrote:Am I the only one that doesnt feel its that hard?
