Got mine at 9 this morning. They wireless is sweet. The new graphics and gameplay are sweet. I cant wait to get on Live with it.

Beat it on Medium to unlock all the songs. Now I'm going through on hard.

It also seems like the audio is better in 3.

Taking me awhile to warm up to the new guitar. The buttons are a bit different and I'm not sure I like it as much. I love the wireless connection, and it looks nice, but I'm just not hitting the orange button like I was and it feels a bit different to me. I haven't had and actual problems with it like some people are saying, though.

Picking my way through easy just to get a feel for the songs. I love the new guitar, very comfortable and easier to play IMO. I love the battle mode. The songs sound much better and 70% of the songs are originals. :rock:

Check out this achievement....

Doesn't seem like it would take long to do that.

 

[SmokeyVol]

I guessing theres an average of 300 notes a song?

300 is way too low.

 

[Fine Vol]

I like the Tenashious D

 

[Fine Vol]

I will buy the game and keep the old guitar.

 

[SmokeyVol]

Well lets say the average is 500. It would still take 500 perfect songs to reach 250,000 notes that was hit. That would be the quickest route.

 

[thedank]

Not something you'll do quickly, but I would think fans of the game get it after a couple weeks. I think 500 may be low unless you are averging out with easy mode. In hard and expert, most songs are well over 500 notes. Factor in times you fail, etc. and it's not all that bad.

I think we should check in if anyone gets this thing. See who gets it first. I'm not aware of any place to see your progress on that one. Maybe it's in the acheivements? I've never really looked at those so no idea if shows your progress...

 

[SmokeyVol]

A progress bar of some sort would be nice.

 

[SWIL]

I'm going to force myself through Medium....

If you can play GH, it wont take long. Only the last tier has anything remotely difficult.

That's what I figured- so I'm going to savor it

picked up the wireless PS2 version today. Kids are playing with it right now. This new guitar is slick, but it's taking some getting used to.

 

[duckman398686]

is it really that more difficult than the last 2? a friend of mine has it and said that he can barely get by "raining blood" by slayer and "one" by metallica...:dunno:

 

[SWIL]

I somehow managed to make it 67% of the way through Dragonforce- Through the Fire and Flames on HARD!!! I can't even believe I made it that far. This song unbelievably, disgustingly SICK!!
