I know - it was just a crack at them for fronting the assault against filesharing.

yea, i picked up on that (the whole Napster thing)


I was just stating that, in case someone was interested in learning the real songs after playing guitar hero.

I played guitar before I picked up guitar hero, and I was actually interested enough to learn the real songs (like bark at the moon and cowboys from hell)

surprisingly, i find it easier to play on a real guitar, than on the plastic one

Yeah - I've been playing guitar and bass for 15 years and I find the plastic guitar to be exponentially more challenging. I also found that my previous experience is of little help.

hahaha

honestly, I saw it the other way. I remember having problems with the timing on one of the Rob Zombie songs (chugging rhythm) because I was relying eyes processing the information, instead of my ears. I actually remembered thinking "HEY RETARD, you play guitar" and I picked it up without a problem.


As far as reference points, you're right. It really doesn't help

Well, I've only been at it for a couple of days - I have managed to impress my roommates by completing the game on medium, but I guess I wish I had an extra finger for the tougher levels. My left hand gets lost easily even though the yellow key has a nub on it.

They should definitely have "Train Kept A Rollin'" (as made famous by Aerosmith) on there!

The bass parts would actually be more interesting

Tool's Parabol/Parabola would be a good choice.

Realistically, they wouldn't be able to get Led Zeppelin or Metallica licensing. I believe they also tried to get Iron Maiden but couldn't. I'm sure there are a few more that would be difficult due to the record company or the band or whoever owns the rights. But who knows, perhaps with more popularity...

Well we can always hope for Zeppelin or Metallica but it probably won't happen. Maiden will though. Apparently the band was all for it and Red Octane had a song picked out that they were going full out on putting into the game, but apparently the band didn't own the complete rights to the song and someone (BMG?) who owned 5% nixed it at the last minute. I assume they will have things ironed out and we'll see some Maiden in GHIII.
