I'm currently going over a load of songs on expert to try and 5*, however I still can't beat the devil!!! I've downloaded the song to practise from xbox live which helped, but I never seem to get lucky with the battle powers!

You could ofcourse use the glitch

Glitchiing ftl

Nearly had him on hard yesterday but got hit with a double/lefty combo :|

When I got him on hard it was a total fluke - just sent a whammy across and it so happened to get him when there were millions of notes

hendrix · 1 Sep 2008 at 15:33

haha, awesome, i don't think i could live with myself for doing that. But i suppose I could always keep trying until i get too fed up, then use the glitch. Then keep trying another days to easy my guilt, hehe.

My friend had a go at Slash on Expert (he's stuck on Devil/Expert) but said he probably wouldn't beat him.

Starts playing and due to the way he's standing every power up he gets got activated instantly

Blocked everyone of his power ups then sent a whammy his way and the whole thing was over in < 2 mins

18% of the song played

Rly? I watched a youtube video of that because you got me intrigued - is it the start that's difficult? Or which bit is it?

just the intro. my double strumming needs a bit work.

Yeah I find it a pita - whenever I need to strum up and down (fast) I find it very difficult to go back to strumming normally without accidentally strumming or loosing the tempo

Got through loads of expert today! I'm stuck on slipknot & 3's and 7's

Very very difficult indeed

I do this a lot, it's a pain.

Completed the game the other day and just improving scores now, quite easy to do considering I've played most songs once or twice. 5* on Cult of Personality felt good

el_dazza · 9 Sep 2008 at 01:00

RAWR what the HELL do you have to get on Holiday in Cambodia to get 5*?!?!?!?!!?!?!?

285,876 score, 95%, and 2 x 200+ note streaks (211 longest)

:mad:

Shamikebab · 9 Sep 2008 at 01:46

about 1000 more than that according to Score Hero.

They sure will, forwards compatible - it says so in that link

I wasn't really looking forward to this as my expectations of the album were quite low, however its a cracker
