well ... while we were school shopping for kids on the 19th son wanted to buy Guitar Hero but was $20 short ... I said I'd cover ... then I took him aside and asked if he'd rather I buy it for the family or if he really wanted it to be HIS ... he let me buy it <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Smile"> ... we got the Aerosmith version with 2 guitars ... I also picked up the 2-pack GH1&GH2 game ...<br><br>
in the meantime ... the next day our computer completely wigged out on us and we had no choice but to FINALLY take it in for repair (we hoped it could be repaired, at least) ... the kids and I have played the heck outta GH this past 1 1/2 weeks!<br><br>
I actually had a GH injury going into my little sprint tri last weekend, lol ... the pinky, ring, and middle fingers on my left hand were swollen and stiff ... I'm getting old! haha ... looking forward to the inherited arthritis I'll probably deal with in a few years <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/roll_eyes.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="roll_eyes"><br><br><br>
Son is the best in the house ... already passing songs on Hard (though he misses a lot of notes, but he gets to move on to next song with high enough percentage) ... I can't even get more than 10%-15% into a hard song without being booed offstage! <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/sad2.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="sad2"> ... I made it through easy on all 3 games ... and then mastered medium on Aerosmith and GH2 ... but GH1 evaded me, the last 8 songs were ticking me off ... then, FINALLY, yesterday I made it past all but the last one before me, my daughter and her bf had to leave to see a Sevendust concert in C-bus ... Ozzy's 'Bark at the Moon' still awaits me ...........................<br><br><br>
I am getting pretty high percentages on most songs on medium but keep going back and trying to get better and earn more stars ... on medium I have 5 stars on about 1/4th the songs ... 4 stars on about 1/2 ... and only the minimum passing rate of 3 stars on the other 1/4th ... I improved some of those 3 stars to 4 yesterday ...<br><br><br>
I cannot fathom how those playing real guitars do it ... I watched in amazement last night at the concert as the heavy and frantic music errupted out of all those guitars ... <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/notworthy.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="notworthy"><br><br><br>
anybody else have GH fever???
