[Multiplatform] [Multi-platform] Guitar Hero II

Quote:

See if you can catch the hint that Stairway to Heaven will be in the next Guitar Hero game. They hinted at Freebird in the last one, and it's in Guitar Hero II...

As much as I'd like to believe it, Led Zeppelin has been notorious for how stingy they are with licensing their songs, so it would be a pretty big thing if they do get it.

While talking to my parents on the phone the other day my mom asked if I had bought the game for myself yet. I told her I hadn't and she said I damned well better not. Guess what I'm getting for Christmas.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

So I got this game for Christmas, and while it's been a whole lot of fun I'm not sure if I like the song selection better than GH1. In the first there were a number of songs that I wasn't really familiar with, but I wound up liking the songs even though they weren't the usual type I enjoy. In this one, there's been a considerable number of songs I really don't like at all and don't look forward to having to fight my way through on Expert difficulty. Especially the second to last set. I hadn't even heard of any of the bands they included and playing through them once was torture enough, it's actually making me not want to get through the game on Expert. =\

(Soy Bomb is absolutely fantastic, though. Honest Bob and the Factory to Dealer Incentives have the best Bonus song in each game. <3)

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I'd like to see them start releasing those genre-specific games so I'd have a better chance of only having to deal with songs I like (I'd also be really interested in the Bonus songs they include since I'd like to find some new bands that do music in a style I like.).

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Haven't seen that loading screen yet, but I remember someone actually did a pretty nice photoshop a while back to promote Accordion Hero after GH became a hug hit. My guess is they're just referring to that.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I only have left the last two sets, Rock This Town, and the Encore from that set, though I doubt I'll ever finish the game since I really don't like any of the songs from the second to last set and can't see myself spending any time trying to practice them. =/

Anyone know of a good place to pick up a second controller? CompUSA had them (wired SG) a week or so in stock for $30 plus shipping, but I decided to sleep on it and by morning the price had gone up to $35 and they were sold out.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Already own the first one, I had bought the game-only version of the second because I didn't know the multi-player would have the ability for each player to choose a different difficulty (which is what made the multiplayer in the first kinda lame).

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?
