I'd be a 2.5 - can 5* most of Medium...

I bought all three games on Friday and finally completed them all last night...on easy. Guess it's time to step it up to "medium".

I had some friends over to play earlier this week and wanted to have all the songs available for them. Since you have to beat the game on medium in II to unlock the encore songs (which is BS, IMO, and I'm glad they changed that in III), I had my 11 year old nephew - who is really good playing the games on the hard level - start a career and unlock them for me.

BTW, I'm a Level 1 for now.

I guess I be a 3.5, since I don't fail most expert, I pass most of them, just not very well.

I'm a level 3, I 3 star most hard, and can't do expert to save my life.

I'm probably closer to a 4 on Rock Band.

We are on the same page. Although I can't finish Hard on GHIII. I'm stuck on the Slipknot, Distrubed tier. Medium is almost too easy at this point and hard is too hard. That's where Rock Band comes in. Hard in that game falls between med/hard on GHIII.

Level 5 here...If I had a little more patience I could maybe become a 6. I just cannot bring myself to play any song more than a few times a week to master it. It's just not fun.

I'm a 3... 5-starred all but a few on Medium (just now getting the hang of proper hammer-ons and pull-offs) and halfway through 3-starring Hard.

Yep definitely. I'm still aways away from getting the 5 star for all medium songs achievement, but I played through a bunch of the songs I had 3/4 starred the first time through and 5-starred all of them today, so I think my skills have increased dramatically since the last time I played GHIII(about 27 days of Rock Band ago...)

Same with Rock Band, I'm mid-Hard, but it's so tough for me to actually play through Solo Tour, instead of WBT, drums, vocals, or my favorite DLC songs.

I'm a solid 4. Though I'm a little better on expert than just 3 stars. Easily a 5 on Rock Band.

Actually, more impressive to do it with that little douche bag running his gums. Not even the FC itself, but the restraint it took not to Townshend him across the forehead.

That's one of things real guitar has over GH... the solid wood knocks out annoying bystanders instead of just bruising them.

Just crashed the top 5 in our DVDtalk group. Jumped from 7 to 4 since last night.

I noticed I dropped out of the top 5. Looks like I need take care of some business and get my groupies back up.

Your groupies are fine where they're at.

I'm stuck again. Common tale. I actually had a breakthrough today. Did the tier with Disturbed in it on Hard today. Finished four of the five in that group(all but Slipknot). I also managed to get through about a dozen songs on Expert. Stuck on the Who on that one. So my groupies won't be climbing any higher for a while.

I will eventually get my groupies up some more. I took a break, due to too many new games after my income tax return.
