Official James' Guitar Hero II thread.

[TheOriginalJames]

Ok... I'm just going to talk about this game in here... anybody else playinig/wanting to talk about it is more than welcome in here!

Disclaimer: Any bit of flaming will be asked to be deleted. I don't care if I have no life outside of my house. That's why I bought my house, so's that I could come home and chill the fuck out by mahself and play this incredibly fun game. Alone. Got a problem with my wanting to be alone most of the time? Don't bother me with it. Thank you for your cooperation.

First off I wanna mention that YOU WILL NOT beat me at Freebird on Hard.

Well that is unless you can actually get through Freebird on Expert, then yeah you could probably beat me. haha

Current and most recently updated stats:

Notes Hit/Total: 1618/1684
Top Score: 414,508
Percentage: 96% hit
Stars: 5
Note streak: 568 (notes hit consecutively)


Problem spots in song: Solo C, Solo J and Solo Q. (sometimes the End wankery if my fingers slip)

Solo C is a back and forth red/blue note where you strum them all.

Solo J is a triplet. You strum the yellow, hammer on the red and then the orange over and over again. I can't do it for some reason.

Solo Q is just something I can't do.


I was doing absolutely horrible playing any other song, but I killed my top score tonight. Woulda been higher had I saved my star power from Solo I. (chords throughout the entire thing)

 

[TheOriginalJames]

Can I get a sticky from someone, por favor?

I figure we have a sticky WWE thread, why not a sticky this? hmm? hmm?

Song: Sweet Child O' Mine
Level: Hard

Notes Hit/Total: 891/894
Top Score: 245,074
Percentage: 99% hit
Stars: 5
Note streak: 621 (notes hit consecutively)

My best run EVER.

I missed... THREE damn notes.

Problem spots: Only tonight am I starting to figure out solo 2a. I missed two notes in this section and

"the bridge" 1 red followed by several more reds... I simply strum like mad to try to hit them all, if you 'add' strumming it doesn't detract from getting a 100% (cheating, I know, but the crowd would never know since you can't finger pick this bar like you can a guitar)

I will have this 100%. Then it's off to Expert I go to get that better. I'm already doing 95-96% on Expert anyway.

guitar hero II...sweet child of mine? we don't have that

 

[dt3]

guitar hero II...sweet child of mine? we don't have that

I believe you have to unlock it in single player

 

[TheOriginalJames]

guitar hero II...sweet child of mine? we don't have that

It's an encore song in the 4th tier, you have to beat 3/4 songs in that tier on medium to unlock it.

It's really fun in hard too.

 

[Thebest]

Bah, everyone's always talkin about Guitar Hero II, I better go out and get it if it's as fun as everyone says.

 

[Mrs Behavin]

Its definately hard to put down! I had bought it for my husband for our 10th anniversary back in May and I think I have played it more than he has. lol

 

[dt3]

Bah, everyone's always talkin about Guitar Hero II, I better go out and get it if it's as fun as everyone says.

By that logic, James should've already gotten....

ah, never mind, it's too easy. I won't mock James in his own thread




And GHII is the shit!!!

 

[TheOriginalJames]

Yay for not doing what I kindly asked you not to!

 

[Boomer]

[GuesSAngel]

and don't worry james, i'm content to stay at home and play guitar hero all day long. As long as I have food, cigarettes and toilet paper i'm fine.

 

[TheOriginalJames]

I'll be making up for not being able to play Monday tonight.

Had to go way up north to jump a friends vehicle for her. Didn't get home until 9, and then I was like screw it and went to bed at half time.

 

[TheOriginalJames]

OH yeah... you can hack your PS2 to play hacked and downloaded songs, there are youtube videos of people playing DragonForces' song. Something like 3500 notes. It's insanity.. I won't try it above medium. lol
