"Zen Arcade".

Oh, by the way, HMX: Husker Du is really under-represented. 3-pack at your leisure, please.

ETA: Oh, yeah, I'm buying this album twice.

Did the same thing this weekend: different song, X-Guitar, four notes from the end and... -plink-.

Winner gets a kewpie doll.

I think these folks believe that this genre, with its weekly expansion packs, was designed to be a recession killer. We're in a recession. People are choosing between...

God, I hope no more Metallica, RHCP, or Soundgarden. They can stop playing Lucy to my RB-playing Charlie Brown whenever they want.

It changes the definition a bit: What is a rock band? I'm not sure that's a bad thing.

I'm glad to see more people who wouldn't play this game otherwise get up on it. I'll wait for Springsteen,...

I've been playing with the same bandmates since RB1's release, and the slow, slow climb for our drummer from Medium to Expert has been filled with hiccups and false starts.

For the first time...

Cracked the Top 25 for 3 songs, can't remember which. Made me smile.

This thing works wonders. Our RB nights featured 100% fewer visits from Chicago's Finest after we installed it.

"The Fire" is the Billy Pack's "Silver". Deal with it. :)

In the meantime, there's Faith No More's "We Care a Lot". That should tide you over.

...and although I can't double-kick to save my life, Before I Forget -- I fail at this song, but I have so much fun failing.

Hell, if ANYTHING, the HOPOs have become easier. Two things:

1) Sync feels more accurate this time around. Even at near-perfect settings in RB2, I always felt like I had to anticipate the note. ...

#2 on "Savior". Yeah, I'll take it.

Also, GS on "20th C. Boy". That's a lot of alt-strumming there, brother.

1) "20th Century Boy" could be my RB3 "Bodhisattva".
2) That outro guitar solo is ridiculous.

Nothing compares to "Visions". "Visions" was a demo tape and admits as much.

I might like certain songs less than others -- and yes, I've been 1-lightering the list as I go -- but dear G-d, at...

I got one of them playing "The Collector". He played on the NIN "With Teeth" sessions. But I didn't get it for "March of the Pigs"... or "Learn to Fly".

"and no religion, too..."

Yeah, I can imagine some parents going ballistic when this line appears.

OK, "In A Big Country" is too much fun.

And yeah, this version of "Whip It" is kinda neutered.

(( Chozo and HMXHenry's comments on this thread more or less make this thread obsolete.

(( It's been a while since I've been involved in a software launch. I forgot the chaos. This WILL clear up...

Bad: Truly unimpressed with "Just Like Heaven" and "Hey Man Nice Shot" on guitar. Don't be a trend toward GH3 pointless chord complexity.

Good: "Crazy Train" feels perfect, as does "Rock...
