Suited_Up 2 Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 The Perfect Drug and March of the Pigs on expert drums is total .Fun songs though.All the songs on expert drums are I still haven't played much drums.Got through the guitar medium though. Just picked it up one day and beat Enter Sandman... it's weird how that works.Still can't touch hard though.Gotta go look at the new downloads. Link to post Share on other sites

Tehtoe 3 Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Bleh, I can't beat Flirtin' With Disaster on Hard Guitar. Only song I can't beat . However, I am also about halfway done with Expert Guitar, I'm good at it, just for some reason I can't beat that stupid song on Hard. I haven't played drums in awhile, still on Medium with those.

SBriand 4 Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Just finidhed Solo Medium on Drums and 29 songs done on guitar and 30 on mic. I am 8 songs done on hard drums.I need a gh guitar to go any further on guitar as I hate having the buttons flush on the neck which makes it hard for me to keep track of where I am.

CobaltBlue 662 Posted March 28, 2008 Author Share Posted March 28, 2008 The end (about 85% through) of "Don't Fear The Reaper" on Hard Drums has been owning my soul for about a month. I've made progress elsewhere...but I think I'm going to have to spend some time in Practice mode or Star Power my way through it.Guitar really got put on the backburner. I can justify stopping my piano practice to practice "Drums" since I think it translates okay...but guitar doesn't translate as well. Link to post Share on other sites
FARGOpokerND 22 Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 I've finished half the songs on vocals on expert, all the songs 5-starred on guitar on expert, 3 songs left on hard on drums Link to post Share on other sites

I really don't want to have to shell out another $200 for more peripherals though, lol.Yeah I'll definitely reserve judgment until the release date is a little closer, but I saw a rumored list of maybe 30-40 artists and it looked pretty solid, only time will tell.
