I'm not great at guitar, but I SUCKED at Guitar Hero. xD
It was ridiculously fun though, so I'm going to buy it and five-star Dragonforce on Expert. ;)

Guitar Hero's cooler than I gave it credit for. I can barely play it on Medium though.
I've been playing on Expert recently. It's more fun than Hard, but I don't expect that I'll be able to get past the sixth or seventh set. :P
Yeh, Expert is a lot more fun than Hard. I can barely stand playing on Hard anymore; it's just not hard enough.
Practice it a lot. It's just 4 note runs over and over again, which basically becomes a smash of those four keys. If you practice enough it becomes second nature. Now, I haven't practiced it enough, it's not yet second nature to me, so I can't do it every time. I've only 3-starred Raining Blood, because the time I got through the Thrash part fine, I wasn't too set on the repeated greens for some reason, which are now easy to me.
Apparently I had also not yet five-starred Knights of Cydonia. That is no longer the case!
For those who are having trouble getting streaks on the septets (the quick notes), well, they're septets, which means they break the natural rhythm. What I ended up doing to hit them was holding the strummer deeper than usual - instead of with the fingertips, with more of the lower part of the fingers. With a better grip on it, just basically shake your whole body. It worked for me!
I was playing online with someone on Hard mode today. Best of three. He picked Through the Fire and Flames and I picked Cliffs of Dover. He was awful at Cliffs of Dover but he kicked my ass at TTFaF. Then we played Suck My Kiss and I raped him at it. :P I really think he only plays the one song.
I havent played guitar hero yet, but loving all rhythm games (ddr, ouendan, whatever is at the arcade), I MUST get!
Do you think I may as well start from this version (III) or get either of the others first?
I heard people saying its harder but I guess I can just start on an easier difficulty. I like to think I'm pretty good at rhythm games :p
I picked up II last week. Now I have two guitars and I jam with mah boy on a regular basis :D
I just figured something out: Never, ever play with two wireless controllers. About halfway through co-op Dragonforce on Hard with my friend, my controller took over his signal, so his controller was basically playing what I was playing. We lost.
I got it yesterday, played on easy mode, but got stuck at the devil guy, I hate those boss battles, I suck at them -_-;; So I just started playing medium and enjoying that..
So far I think my favourite song to play was "One" by Metallica.
