There are so many. For what ever reason, I think Same Old Song and Dance.

It's not overcharted, just stupidly charted. They made every not into annoyingly placed chords, most likely just for challenge. That song was quite a bïtch to pass.

I'd say 3's and 7's. You play the bass part for a while in it.

I say 3's & 7's. The three-note chords are dumb, there's no need for those.

Thats called overcharting.

I consider overcharting to be when they add notes in places where there is no guitar. Bad notes is just bad charting, not overcharting.

Anything that artificially raises the challenge of a song can be considered overcharting.

Awkward chords, notes that aren't actually there, playing the synth part of a song (yes, I know HMX did it too with Smokin'); All of these to me, are overcharting.

If they make it harder than it really should be, its overcharting.

Through the Fire and flames. Simply because of the damned key board intro

FCPREMIX was badly done. for example in the main riff they have a double note where there is supposed to be only one. my guitarist friend and i have been playing this song at my youth group for a year now, and when i first got gh3 it disgusted me.

Was it? It was my favourite song on GH3.

The intro is a classical guitar

Slipknot is way overcharted.

Through the Fire and Flames definately!!! The intro is completely screwed up... That and they slide from one note to the next alot and they count the slide as different notes so a slide from fret 17 to 20 would be 4 different notes which is a little stupid. AND THE STRING SCRATCHES!!! Why even chart those???

yeah, because that's how they play the intro live.

See, this is why I hate bands like Dragonforce. It SOUNDS LIKE A KEYBOARD. Who cares if it's "classical" guitar, it shouldn't be put in a game if the freaking guitarist can't even play it

well in the defense of rockband players, it seems that the "yo momma" replies are generally made by those who do the thing that's being made fun of

I thought only mature players played Rock Band for awhile, and I was wrong...

Nothing is completely exclusive. Compared to other games, I think we have a decent ratio, though.

Leaning towards "Through the Fire and Flames". It's ridiculous. Second place: "Before I Forget". Also "Raining Blood", "Stricken", and "Same Old Song and Dance". Others, I'm sure.

"F.C.P.R.E.M.I.X." is a great song, but they didn't do a good job with that chart. P.S. Fall of Troy for Rock Band, please!

I would agree.

Through the Fire and The Flames. Definitely is the worse. It's 2 guitars overlapped... They really need to break it down. It's crazy. Who knows. Thats the main reason I'm sticking with Rock band

In all fairness, the second mosh in Raining Blood is really hard to chart. In reality, Kerry King and Jeff Hanneman are just doing sustained whammy dives, which really doesn't translate well to guitar rhythm games.

its sad though, because, pre GH III, I could have seen TTFAF as a good RB song, corny maybe, but would be fun if charted directly, and included the option to choose lead or rhythm guitar.

Knights of Cydonia. The minute or so of non-stop hammer-ons/pull-offs really doesn't make much sense to me...I'm almost certain you play the synth part there.

The main issue was that...

A.Three cord spam. Not hardcore, more of not required.

B.Same guitar part, diffrent game tab. Stricken, definatley.

C.Too many non-guitar parts. TTFAT was the main song here. Knights of Cydonia had that middle thing, it can go on...

BUT...

A.New company on the game. It's like trying to put a fast-food person in control of finishing the creation of a monument single-handed. This is their first time trying to chart games, HMX had the SAME problem with GH1 (HO PO anyone?)

I am hoping GH:WT, they get their **** together and produce a good game. GH3 wasn't good, but hell, they gave the series to someone who hasn't done those game types. I give em a break, but I seriously hope GH:WT isn't the same quality.

I heard that the intro TTFaF is classical guitar samples being played through a keyboard.

TTFAF wins though.
Half the song your playing keyboard instead of guitar

Rock and Roll all Night was pretty over charted too

So is Cult of Personality

"Impossible WTF" has been my most requested song for Rock Band like, forever.

Um, I'd have trouble listing every single song that was overcharted, but I think it's safe to say that most of them were quite overcharted. I really hate their charts of Knights of Cydonia and When You Were Young. 2 of my favorite bands, awesome songs, terrible charts. At least Rock Band has When You Were Young.

Well FCPREMIX made you play the delay effect.
Before I Forget is just stupid.
Cherub Rock make open strings+1 noted string=a chord.
TTFATF: Synth solo
Number of the Beast?: I dont remember the chart but I think there were some useless chords.
