Yea I mean like sports right. There no fun because you have to....... I mean, I mean, wait. No. I mean, wait. Oh right, yea. That outlook is f*cking retarded. There are a few games that would cause physical pain. DDR for one. That's fun, lots of fun, it physically tires me out. When I first had it my feet where killing me after a big session on it, but I had sooooooooooooooooooo much fun playing it.

GHII is ALOT better than GH.

PS: I keep trying to pass The Beast And The Harlot Expert, but I always fail halfway through

rel89 · 03-24-2007, 07:47 PM

If getting hurt on a game means it's not a game, then what about being emotionally hurt by a game?
And what about DDR? It hurts when you play too much.
And.. fighting games. Mashing buttons for hours is painful.

Knocked off 3 of those 6 (Rock This Town, YYZ, Hangar 18)...only Carry Me Home, PF, and Institutionalized left to five-star.

Also tried all the bonus tracks...only Jordan (fail) and Six weren't 5* in one or two tries.

EDIT: Got PF, woo. 2 left.

I love rock & roll easy song rofl

Do you guys hammer on and do pull offs? I went into tutorial and learnt them but I think it'll take a while before I can incorporate them into the game. Is it like essential? Seems like it would help a lot if you practice them, for solos so you don't have to strum at an awkward or erratic pace.

What do you guys think? I can see levels being done without them like.

Hachi86 · 03-26-2007, 10:51 AM

I havent been in this thread in a while. Damn Shash. You got good fast. Im guessing you dont have a job and therefore have a lot of free time? I started trying to five star stuff and i got all but like six i think. (the number, not the song)

**Shashakiro** · 03-26-2007, 11:32 AM

If you have GH1, don't bother with HOPO's.

If you have GH2, you MUST learn them.

and as for me...3 weeks of GH1 before my whammy bar broke...then 6 days of GH2 so far.

EDIT: LOG. Got Institutionalized first try today, and got a COMPLETELY flukey run on Carry Me Home (did not hit a single one of the fast annoying chord transfers), mostly aided by getting basically perfect SP on the parts with lots of 3-fret-chords.

Log after three weeks of GH1 and 6 days of GH2. Oh yeah.

_pandaman_ · 03-26-2007, 10:59 PM

My only songs left to 5* are Misirlou (4* at around 176k), Six (4* at around 242k) and Jordan (failure).

Basically, with Misirlou, if you can get the slow (yes, slow) doublestrum that is throughout, you can get it. I just havent played in a while so i need to just stand up and practice it. Six is similar, but the double strum is sooo much faster. The main rhythym is annoying, but ive gotten pretty damn good at it. I know I could easily improve my score if I could just keep a goddam streak in that song tho.

And Jordan is gonna be luck the first time i beat it. gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

EDIT: Also, I completely agree with Shash on the HO/PO comment.

**Cyanite** · 03-27-2007, 02:21 PM

I'm not getting any better at GH2 at all. I'm very close to 5 starring everything in Expert but I can't 5 star anything below Madhouse, except for YYZ. The rest are a HUGE jump in difficulty.

**Shashakiro** · 03-27-2007, 03:49 PM

Laid to Rest isn't hard to five-star.

A lot easier than Rock This Town IMO, and easier than YYZ.

EDIT: Beat Jordan twice, first with 216k, then 252k arrrrgh bleh I WILL get that fifth star

EDIT2: OH MY GOD 97% 278K MISIRLOU WHAT THE HELL =O

Wow I just had a nerdgasim

SethSquall · 03-28-2007, 06:10 AM

I got a 4 star on Misirlou yesterday on hard. I was proud. It is loads of fun.

Hachi86 · 03-28-2007, 12:07 PM

I like that song too, its just that i dont hear the click-click i do of keyboards, so i get offbeat sometimes.

**Shashakiro** · 03-28-2007, 06:04 PM

5-starred Jordan. 266450.

oh snap.

Right, that was another I five starred, forgot about that.

Still I don't think it's easier to 5 star than YYZ. Rock this town though, I'll agree with. Still anything else is really, really difficult to 5 star when you're just barely at the skill level to 5 star Madhouse.

Good job with the Jordan 5 star by the way. I can't even pass the song after the first two solo sections..

**Shashakiro** · 03-28-2007, 09:11 PM

Meh, I've played Laid to Rest a total of once ever, YYZ did take me two tries lol...that's why I say it's harder.

xinpig · 03-30-2007, 09:09 AM

xinpig · 03-30-2007, 09:10 AM
