Anyone hear about Guitar Hero 80's Edition?

Can't wait for down loadable content for GHII for the 360.

I just came across PC Guitar Hero Clone.

You can go to freetar.net and download a bunch of songs that people made. Better yet, you can make your own game up with any song that you want with the freetar editor. I think it's just as fun as using the guitar, just a little different. :D

I personally hate the game, but for two reasons only.
1- i have aweful tendinitis so ripping on that thing makes my arms go numb in a matter of minutes.
2- the songs aren't performed by the original artists, rigth?
They should make like, "Guitar Hero:Radio Edition", and it just tunes into whatever radio station you're listening to, transposes the music INSTANTLY.... my gosh the 360 is fast, non? :P , and then you gotta play it. So like if you're listening to some good ol' Bluegrass, that's the game on expert!! :P

And this game is WAY harder than playing a real guitar. I fully admit to suckin it up hardcore.

On Guitar Hero II, I need two of the bonus songs in order to 4* Hard mode (I have up to the 5th set list 5* and many Bonus songs), which are Six and Fall of Pangea.

I 5* Jordan on Hard mode. Nothing compared to Expert, but still a good achievement.

I got 119,348 on Trogdor on Hard. I missed <10 notes, if I can nail the first part of the solo I can get like 125K.

Guitar hero is already available for the PC & Mac. It's called frets on fire, and there is over a 1000 songs available to play on all difficulty levels, including all the original GH1-2 and even GH3 songs and tons more. Plus, it's free. I would go out to say it's better than guitar hero.

I hated FoF.

All of the note charts I played were awfully put together.

That sucks. Most (I would say 90%, there's some shit ones out there) are dead on and the actual GH songs are straight copies of the original note charts. Some day I'll buy a guitar and an adapter so I can play for real, keyboard is tough.

A friend brought over GH2 the other day and we jammed. I'm 1000 times better with frets on fire :wink: even when playing on the same charts. I noticed that I needed to slow down about a quarter-step to transfer the skills over from FoF to GH2. It's weird.

I got 45% of Jordan on Expert first try ever, so I failed somewhere in Solo A.

I love Hyperspeed.

I'm blowing through Expert right now, just have Institutionalized and Hangar 18 left, and then Freebird.

And can't wait for rock band
