Should that not be ex-flatmate?

Re: Guitar Hero III

It's definately harder than GH 1 and GH 2. Completed GH 2 recently on Expert, and on GH 3 i've just finished "Stricken" by Disturbed on Hard... not hit a dead-end quite yet (appart from the RSI in my wrist!)

It is indeed fantastic!

I've only just started playing GH (I think I played GH2 once...) but I'm completly hooked on GH3. I've completed Medium (ok, with a little help on the last battle) and am now trying to 5 star everything. Knights of Cydonia is my downfall, though - bloody synth bit!

Doesn't help that I share it with two losers who are currently on a mission to complete it on Expert

DAMN YOU HERMAN LI!!! Got to 74% of Through the Fire and the Flames on Hard, right up until the point where Herman's solo kicks in, then my meter took a nosedive into the red

Re: Guitar Hero III

I dunno, having not actually played it yet (in childish fashion I'm saving it for Christmas) I couldn't say for certain, but there was something about the way Rock The 80s played that was a little off. Like, the system for deciding on notes or whatever had changed and the whole thing was just missing a certain something. I put it down to the new developers.

Tracklisting for this is good enough that I have no worries it'll be much fun though, along with the freedom to flail around and spin the guitar around my neck like Jannick Jers that the wireless guitar will afford me.

I'm the same, but on Medium . I had a try up to like 99% through the song then failed.

Re: Guitar Hero III

Just ordered it on Play because it's not actually coming out for PC according to HMV, Virgin and probably Gamestation(Whose motto is, these days, "What's a PC?"). I'd know for certain, but they're terrible so I decided against even asking.

At least the GForce guy checked. On Play.com.
Didn't have it, but he checked.

And I like GForce, so they can do whatever they want, really.

Yer arse, the songs aren't more fun to play. Yeah they might be better songs but they don't translate as well as GH 2's line up. Also, better features? Fuck awf, those battles are fucking yes. Granted, online is good, but that only evens it out at 1 for 1.

Rock the 80's, iirc, was the GH2 engine and not the new GH3 developers having a go. Rock the 80's principal issues were: It was rushed to meet a deadline, the music line-up was not that awesome, it retailed for full price but had about 60% the number of games as GH1/2
