Found out there's a secret track in the Insane difficulty. I'll never see it as the game is actually harder than Frequency.

Right, the game came today and I've had a go on the tracks playable at the start and I don't really know how to say this but....
IT'S FUCKING AWESOME! Considering I haven't played my guitar for about 8 years now, I was suprised how good my fingering on this was. Yeah, it's nowhere near like it is on a real guitar, but I've had no problems stretching my pinky all the way to the end fret buttons. Still trying to used to the hammer-ons and pull offs during really fast sections, no doubt I'll nail them after lots of plays through. So far th best score I've got is 61,000-something, hitting 128 consecutive notes and with a 98% total notes played. Just can't remember what song it was, probably the uber easy I Love Rock and Roll. Gonna start career mode in abit, get more song unlocked

![]() I've gone through career mode on easy unlocked the remaining songs. No One Knows and Cream almost killed me on easy with some parts, so no idea what they are going to be like on the other difficulties. |

I'm loving it.
Making up for a lack of guitar experience with raw music game experience, and it's doing the job well. Suprisingly I found easy to be easy, and normal to be slightly too hard for me right now (well to do at 98-100%). Think my highest score on one track is around 150,000 on normal and I remember thinking a much higher score was possible

My highest score is about 81,000 on normal, easy is about 100,000 or something. I've busted my hands at work so I can't play for the next few days

Argh, medium is kicking my arse on the harder songs, just scraped through Fat Lip with a horrible score of 38,000 or something. Got to improve

Have you 5 starred all the Easy songs yet? I found that was a big help on moving to medium.
I've got 5 stars for all the songs on Medium now apart from 4 for Bark At The Moon and 3 for Cowboys From Hell (not counting the bonus songs either). The first time I saw those two I barely scraped through, but practice is good. It's not taken more than 3 goes for one so far thankfully - else I could get very bored of a song. I tried a song on hard, and the extra note is a pain, but am going back to hard later. Do you play standing up or sitting down? |

I'm on the fourth set of songs at the moment, No One Knows and that Cream song is still killing me, and this time on medium.
I've only gone back to doing the first lot of easy songs, but just need to 5 star Thunder Kiss 65, currently on 4 stars ![]() On a slightly bonus note, I 100%-ed I Love Rock and Roll ![]() ![]() ![]() I rest on my knee's when I play. Sometimes you can see into my window, so don't want anyone seeing me rock out untill I've mastered a stance \m/ |

![]() I 100%-ed Ziggy Stardust before I put it down to rest my arm. Only song I've done it on because I usually get over confident or too relaxed or whatever and end up missing a note. My arm hurts

I'm actually suprised how some of the songs are quite easy, when I thought they would be murder, and the other way round.
I thought Steller would be piss easy the first time I tried it, but only managed to scrape through it. Yet, Ziggy Stardust and a number of others are pretty easy to get through. I think if it's a slower beat you can nail them sooner than the other songs. I dispise Killer Queen, I always fuck up the solo bit, dunno how Brian May etc managed to do it in real life. |

Still not 5 starred those two Medium tracks, but have gone onto Hard anyway. Done the first 15 tracks once each, and got 4 stars on them all apart from one I got 5 and Killer Queen which I got 3.
It's not too bad really, and going back to medium made it seem slow afterwards. Having 5 notes often fucks me right up though. |

Did Cowboys From Hell and Bark At The Moon with 5 stars on medium last night. It was a cause for celebration.
I did No One Knows on hard earlier too, not bothering trying to get 5 stars on Hard yet, more trying to survive. I've done up to and including Godzilla on hard. Expert is scaring me and I've not tried it properly yet. I managed Iron Man in Quick Play though. |

I've been insanely busy the last couple of days so I've had little time to get on with this game
![]() I did manage to do No One Knows on medium though the other night, still fuck up Crossroads though. Managed to pass Cowboys from Hell on medium but only to a 3 star rating or something lame. I went back to trying to five star the tracks on easy and actually found it slightly awkward at first. It throws you abit as it's not as quick as medium which I have spent more time on recently. |

Hitting all of the last solo on Bark At The Moon on medium is amazingly satisfying.

Finished off medium last night, although the last lot of songs were pretty awfull 3 star ratings. So I went back to easy and five starred all the songs, which was pretty satisfying.
Started hard earlier today and I've so far got onto the second lot of songs, with only two of them passed. That included Ironman, which I was doing standing up, with pins and needles running down my whole right leg. I can cope with the speed of the hard setting, it's just the addition of the fifth fret button which screws me over at the moment. I'm starting to get the hang of it though, it's just gonna take awhile I think. Also, I found the first pretty gay thing about this game. I thought when I brought the songs/characters/guitars on medium mode, they would be able to be used on the other difficulty levels in career mode, but no, they are not ![]() I wanna play as Death whilst attempting to do the hard difficulty

Nah, it's a hidden track which can only be unlocked with a codebreaker or something. It's similar to the GTA Hot Coffee stuff, but with less pixalated boobies.

I am doing better on Expert so far than I was on Hard. Oh well. I really cannot stand most of the songs in the "4" section. I hate that fast shit.
