Why did guitar hero 3 get so hard...

medhopeful, on one, just save star power til you get to fast solo a and use it then. and just strum rappidly. beat it second try. Raining blood is just insane. just try and get star power and use it about halfway through the solo. then you should beat it. Im on lou on expert so i no wat ur going through. raining blood had me stuck on expert for like 3 days. dont give up. keep playing.baconman177

I usually do save up the star power on One but then I use it prematurely in the bridge thinking the fast solo is about to come up lol. Raining Blood just kicks my ass from the very start. But thanks anyways, I've been practicing those two songs and playing everything else just for kicks. I'll get it one of these days *sigh*...haha

[QUOTE="Scalemaster"]Why are you guys complaining about the difficulty? While I don't have anything against Guitar Hero, I think spending all of that time trying to beat the harder difficulties is fruitless. The South Park episode on guitar hero said it all; "if they spent all of this time practicing on a real guitar, just imagine how good they would be". Try learning Raining Blood on a real guitar, its actually not too hard, alot of other Slayer songs are much harder to play, though it does take some skill and practice. Mr-Snowman93

Like I said before I don't have anything against playing guitar hero, but spending that much time on all of those difficulties seems wasted to me.You can get adecent guitar for $200 or a little less and an amp for less than a $100.Instead of buying 5 games, save up and get a guitar, believe me when I was younger and had little money I had to save for a while, but it is possible.

Better yet, what if no one cares? To people who ask me the same question, I say "I don't plan on ever being in an actual band, so what difference is it if I play fake guitar on a video game where I can hear the rest of the music or real guitar on a chair, by myself, in my apartment?" I dunno, maybe if you had a girlfriend who really liked guitar ballads, but then you'd have to learn to sing, and ugh...that's just asking way too much.

Playing guitar is about playing for yourself and nobody else. If you want to start a band and sing ballads to your girlfriend great, but you can sit and play in your too. Its about having fun any way you go about it. In a way its like Guitar Hero; I don't think most people play it to be cool, but rather havefunand thats what playing an instrument is about.

Then...why are you asking why we don't just buy and learn how to play a guitar instead of playing guitar hero? lol...you pretty much just said it doesn't matter either way.

By the way...isn't playing ALL video games fruitless? Why are you arguing about another one being fruitless. Playing GH is nothing like playing a real guitar. Guitar Hero is Dance Dance Revolution with your fingers. Do you think you are going to see a bunch of amazing guitarists start emerging as a result of Guitar Hero? I think not. It's just a fun game to play. Leave it at that.

[QUOTE="ct1257860"]i got to the last playlist and i was playing rain of death ( i dont no something like that) and it got so hard like it jumped so much and im only on easy. The notes are flying at me sooooooo fast and then the fret buttons are flying at me. I get to near the end and i just cant do it , its TOO hard...edgeofforever

If I show this to my friends they will laugh until their stomachs explode, lol! My friends and I all play on Expert and hit at least 90% or more on it and we always hit 98% or more on hard. Medium and Easy are a joke. Those are the difficulties that most of the girls I know play on......just saying.......

Wow, you must have a massive penis.

Yes a massive penis and a big man to mash buttons on a plastic guitar !!!

am i the only one that finds it easier?

i played expert on gh2 and went over to 3 and felt it was easier to five star all the songs, (except for raining blood SOB!), still havent five starred TTFAF OR TWIE but i have 5 stars on all other songs and like 25 FC's (I had like 3 in GH2; myabe i got alot better?) I think its the detection system that made it easier, thats why i hate rock band

I did not relize How hard the game was until I hit the 7th set.

the song is speed metal..of course its gonna be fast....but umm..its Raining Blood...not Rain of death lol.

Dude... Guitar Hero III gives you soooo much leeway as to when you hit the notes...ATastyBurger

That is true i was amazed at how loose it was, but that still doesnt change the fact that the last tier of songs on expert are retardedly hard. Rain of blood, One, And the Final boss battle are all retarded. Its funny to play online because all the retarded people always pick those songs even though they suck...and the instant they realize your going to win they quit. lol bunch of carebears not ready for expert. Or the fact that i seem to get 2-3 dev's a night which is retarded...playing some guy who isnt hitting half the notes yet his score keeps rocketing up...its anoying.
