Roomate, who works at Targets electronics deptartment, calls me and tells me he has a copy of Guitar Hero 2, which is released on the 7th. He wanted me to go buy it, and without a second thought, I shall be departing soon to go buy it. I will give a review of the songs and such when I'm done playing it. Boy I'm stoked :D

I realize the demo was already released, but it didn't have all the songs, so lets see how it is I suppose. Hope I don't run out of money D: Should have about 50ish bucks to spare after I get this and pay my cell phone bill. Hopefulyl this $9.75/hr job works out wonders.
 
I played the demo at my local Gamestop, and I must say that this is one fun game. The demo songs were decent. I'm sure there will be a hell of a lot better ones on the full game.

Tell me how it is and how the rest of the songs are!
 
I've gotten through the first 2 sections *10 songs* and I must say, the hammer ons and pull offs are insanely easy, it's amazing. Well, time for some pictures.


 
What difficulty do you play on? Hard or Expert?

And yes, hammer-ons and pull-offs are much easier now which makes them actually useful :D
 
I should sue the publishers because you can "mod the game to include 'questionable' content, ie goatse"

Expert, havn't touched anythign else yet.

And there is ONE song that is so annoying, and so monotonous, and retarded...UGH. "Freya" - The Sword...worst song EVAR.

So far I just started the 6th bunch with "Crazy On You - Heart" God I love that song.

And I jsut noticed, FREE BIRD is on there...god I knew it was going to happen :P

Freebird is just plain fun (at least the 2nd 1/2 of it). I fear Hangar 18 and Misirou though :P

Well, lets hope that I can master it well.

Man, I love doing the really quick two notes over and over, makes the new ease of hammer ons and pull offs worth it..since I can now pull them all off easily! :D
 
I just killed my wrist. I just played the first 5 sets non-stop. My hand started getting so tired I was missing the dumbest notes.

There is one guitar I will never unlock and that is the funky looking one that you have to 5-star EVERY song on expert for...

Egad, that's insane. I am on the 7th set, and these are the worst songs I've ever heard. They sound horrible, and the notes are hurting my poor wrist lol.
 
Here we go, about to try the dreaded Misirlou for the first time.

EDIT: Ok, lol. Beat it the first try. Didn't need the star power even. Used it only on the last like 12 notes for points. 85%.

Failed Hangar 18 first try because I didn't throw my star power on fast enough :( First time failing a song in GH2 so far.

EDIT: Ok beat the main game. I really like how after you beat 4 songs in a section it goes to an encore for the 5th and the set changes in some way (the final one being the coolest).

Yeah, I thought that was pretty nifty. I did really enjoy the way it went on before Freebird. So hillarious. "Are you sure you want to play FREEBIRD?!" "Only Guitar Heros can play it!" "ARE YOU SURE!?" lolol I laughed so hard. Then teh messages while loading. "Ok, so they weren't heckling you this time, SIGH"...."It's Guitar Solo i in practice" Ahh, such greatness.

My favorite bonus song is..Jordan. FUn as hell, though hard on expert with the wall of notes in the middle of the song :P

Hahaha, I also liked how just before the screen cut after you finish Hangar 18 a lone person yells, "FREEBIRD!"

Haven't played any of the bonus songs (barring TRROOOOGGGDOOOOOOOOOR). Gonna give my wrist some rest until tomorrow.

You gotta try Jordan. Though do it on hard, since the solo in the middle is a freaking wall of notes. Guh.

And yeah, Trogdor is awesome.
 
The fish guitar unlock is so badass. I was sceptical about beating easy, since it's so..well..boring. And then I saw it, and it was all better.
