Re: 360 Guitar Hero Impressions

Played at Best Buy, it was hard to me, on easy. I only played for like 5 minutes though.

I'm going to fire it up at home in a bit.

Re: 360 Guitar Hero Impressions

please explain

yeah just do the tutorial like the others said. I never really could do it very well in the tutorial, but once you know the concept, it will get easier as you pull them off during a song. Basically a hammer on/pull off is when you only strum the guitar once, and then roll your fingers to play other notes that are real close. I don't know if the 360 has the same colors, but say there are three notes coming up in a row real fast, all and different strings, but the strings are next to each other, like a green note, then red, the yellow. You would strum the guitar on the green note and then just roll your fingers to hit the red and yellow right afterwards to get those notes. I think that's the hammer on, and the pull off is just the opposite (strum a yellow note, then roll to red then green).

Red octane speaks on whammy bar issue:

Speaking to Joystiq, Red Octane states, "In regards to the controller, we're currently in the process of having our internal QA and production teams look into this possible issue, and are working to quickly isolate this if there is one.

In the meantime, we suggest our fans try to replug in their guitars without holding down any buttons or the whammy bar, and that may help immediately resolve the issue."In regards to the Target "recall," Red Octane confirms our information that there was and is no recall.

So what did everyone name their band?

I'm not on 360, but I named mine Rest Not Assured.

Re: 360 Guitar Hero Impressions

is the CC deal better then the no tax/free shipping from redoctane? For some odd reason im on the fence about getting it even though i wanted it since the ps2 release. Plus i have the beat mania kit also.

GD, I love this game. Between MLB2k7, MLB The Show, Marvel Alliance, and GH2, I Am set game wise for the near future.

The "Last Child" encore on medium level is the first place I've seen numerous hammer on's thus far throughout the career mode. Just finished playing it.

Re: 360 Guitar Hero Impressions

Has there been any word on when they are selling a 2nd/extra guitar?

Edit: Well RockyTop said they're out but just hard to find.

Re: 360 Guitar Hero Impressions

Band name: Substantial Skynn (with Casey Lynch on guitar)

Old band name on PS2: Rotten Tots (with that British spikey punk on guitar)

Re: 360 Guitar Hero Impressions

This is my first time ever with the game. I'm having a great time with it. I've pretty much progressed thru easy and have moved up to medium. Adding that 4th fret into the mix is giving me fits so far.

Re: 360 Guitar Hero Impressions

My band name is the $h!tty Beatles...not just a clever name.

Is the 360 version of the bonus song Six as hard as it is on PS2 because I'm still trying to clear it. Only one left for me on hard.

Re: 360 Guitar Hero Impressions

I found a second guitar at EB today for 60 bucks. My wife and I had a blast playing co-op.
