Now gonna train myself up to use the new hand position as it did help. Back to easy

Again, exactly what I was taught.

Move the entire hand positioning so your pinky is on the orange all the time and then go through easy again!

At the moment, you've gone through easy and probably medium with your hand shifting one fret down, your brain now has to re-learn everything!

It's hard, it'll take a few days probably, but I'm now starting to get a few 4 stars on hard on even managed to get a 5 star - something I'm pretty pleased with.

I started out on easy, but after trying it on medium I realised that nothing played in tune on easy. Love this game and have just worked out that you can roll down the chords, maybe I should have done the lessons!!

I've not even tried it on hard yet 3 chords at one time, thats going to make it a little more difficult

i bought this game for myself for something to do over xmas, this game is really fun, just managed to complete most songs with 5 stars on easy.
now im on medium difficulty and i just can't do it

i guess it will take me a while to master it. can't even imagine hard setting :eek:

I'm struggling with Knights of Cydonia on Medium. I can get 4 stars on some tracks on medium and 1 or 2 5 stars. Embarrassinly though most of the songs are 3 stars. However as I said KoC is kicking my ass on Medium. God help me when I move up to tier 8! In my defence though, I'm playing the guitar right handed when I'm actually left handed.

How come? Or are you trying to get the achievment?

I really want to play mine now, but its the least fun you could possibly ever have when you try to play it hungover.

I've got the achievement for playing through with both left and right already. To be honest I don't really know why I'm still playing right handed, maybe because at the back of my mind I know the controller is right handed by default and it somehow feels like cheating to play it left handed. Oh I dunno, but I might try left again later to see if I'm any better.

Somebodys got to help me with this game, its the only time that i can remember that i've been so bad at a game, my girlfriend is better than me! What she says to do is use the same fingers for pressing the colours and strumming and its easier, but no matter what i suck, whenever its goes across the board blue to green, red then yellow all at once) i panic and then get kicked off soon afterwards

O, you mean about the zoo scoffing northern monkey!!

Bring it on I say!!!

And Chadd - only thing with selling GH2 is that we won't be able to annoy people at the next LAN with "Less Talk More Rock" like before

Psymonkee · 27 Dec 2007 at 14:01

I'll keep my copy of GH2 just for that song if you want?

Yeah

that was one of the biggest highlights of the event!! (halo3 was in there also, somewhere

)

Will we be playing GHII though? As with GHIII we can play from different xboxs thus amplifying the sound ALL AROUND THE ROOM, rather than just from my console.

Hmmmm, might have to have headphones on for the next one so the old farts don't start moaning about how they can't hear last of the summer wine or antiques roadshow!

Completed it on medium, couldn't do it on hard, took it back for a refund.

I hope you have a Fail pic as your desktop background, and on the wall in your office, and on the wall at home and taped to the side of your TV..
