Guitar Hero III

[shaft]

save a couple powerups till the very end. then hit him with a double shot...he goes green to red in a matter of seconds.

You can save them?

yeah you can hold up to 3 at a time...then just tilt the guitar to activate them whenever you want throughout the song....i usually hit the powerups when i see a powerup coming up on his side...usually it throws him off and he misses the pickup.

[R00k]

Yea that's what I've been trying to do. Get the first PU, then use it to keep him from getting one. Repeat.

But if I miss a single one, he gets his next and its over after that. Once he gets the upper hand, his PUs keep me from getting another one.

I didn't know you could hold more than one of them at a time though.

[bitWISE]

Yea I threw three of them at him at once and pwned him pretty fast. I think I tossed out broken string, double notes, and bad amp.

I finally beat One on lunch but now I'm still stuck on Raining Blood before I can unlock the final song.

[shaft]

I already beat Devil Went Down to Georgia last night on hard. owned.

the song in the credits is fucking insane.

congratulations, now you can claim your prize of being a single lonely virgin.

[creep]

I think I have unlimited credit in that department.

Thanks. I was curious what song was last. The credits song is Through the Fire and the Flames by Dragonforce.

My gf has played those. She played her Medium game last night while I was helping my little brother work on his car -- she's like two tiers ahead of me now.

[Transient]

and wtf, no batterypacks for the guitars? lol?

Rechargable batteries? lol?

[R00k]

Man, the tier with Muse, Queens of the Stone Age, Disturbed, etc. is kicking my ass. I haven't had any real problems with any of the songs up to this point, and now I'm getting booed off stage within 30 seconds.

Rechargable batteries? lol?

no quickcharge or play-n-charge? lol?

[shaft]

hey mkj ass, why aren't you responding on irc? did you get the game yet?

[MKJ]

cause irc is my workcomputer and im at home. rofl?
games not out yet here in euroland 3 weeks from now i'll be melting your face (or whats left of it after my inhuman chainsawskills) with my awesome licks tho.

[shaft]

ill be bored of it by then....scared?

[andyman]

I went and bought it and will sell the one that comes in the mail. i was tired of waiting.

So yeah, the first few sets sucked balls. I am playing through it on hard to unlock all the songs, and then I'll start on expert. I hate hard.... I hear notes in the song that aren't on the gametrack (hard) and still strum in rythm with the song and screw up sometimes. It's just annoying really. When i played 'The Seeker' on hard, it was boring so I went to quickplay expert for it and had a blast playing it... wierd

[andyman]

when are we going to battle/co-op???

[andyman]

also i don't like how the leg cutout on this new guitar is shifted forward... it moves my arms and fucks up where my hands are compared to the original controller which i am so accustomed to

[creep]

I rest the butt end on my leg. The strap nubbin is giving me a bruise =(

Then use the original controller?

[andyman]

I have to wear a sweatband where my arm rests on the guitar because it is hurting so bad. need some padding

stand up and play you lazy cunt

Agreed. (fuck im agreeing with this guy).

I dont know how people play sitting. It feels, so weird.

[werldhed]

Yup. Playing sitting down hurts my arms and hands worse than standing up.

Also, I haven't played it yet. Too busy studying to be gaming. I'll probably get it for xmas. So far away.

[R00k]

On the Wii version, if you sit down during a song it pops up a message saying Real Men Stand Up To Play.

Pussy.

[werldhed]

Besides, how are you supposed to jump off the sofa and windmill when you're sitting down?
