Go to your local torrent site, pick up a demo, burn the ISO, pop it in and check your Demos and More section.

Enjoy. I am!

They're all actually very fun. I've only 3 starred The Metal so far and that's with GH3's improved (re:fucking crazy loose and easy) timing.

Also, I heard that the one they're releasing on the Marketplace is actually gonna have a couple more songs too, so I'll keep this thread posted on details for that.

It comes out later. IIRC it'll be on there right around the game's release

Where's Black's reverse :awesome: face?

Raining Blood looks hard as fuck but I don't think it's Jordan level like people are saying.

seriously i can't play game without hyperspeed

edit: it really shouldn't be considered a cheat. They need to copy Bemani and make it a per-player easily toggled option. I'm tired of explaining that I'm not "cheating" by appealing to rhythm game precedent.

All I wanted out of life was to be a Japanese schoolgirl adorned in pink and white while I play Guitar Hero and now I can.

Everything I've played up to this point (Tier 1, Barracuda, and Mississippi Queen) has been very fun. Like, not even comparable to the last 3 games in fun when talking about the first 2 tiers of songs. This game is awesome.

Also, Lars' new secondary costume is AWESOME. And Axel's alt costume is Dimebag Darrell.

Cliffs of Dover is the funnest song on the game.

Raining Blood is the opposite.

My interest level in this game is so very low. That being said, I should be playing it tomorrow. Let's hope the calibration tool doesn't suck.

No, I will not compile a list of GH3 songs.

I can't get it to calibrate anything but 0ms for me in the demo, but the looser timing seems to have made it so that 0ms is fine for my TV

I don't think lag is an issue anymore as the timings are incredibly loose. I 5-starred 3 of the songs my first try .

only played two songs
not likin' dis

It just feels a lot more unpolished than GH1/2 so far. The new engine blows.

black hasn't played it yet he's on the phone or something outside

i'm just fuckin around with it but seriously the new engine (even in menus) just feels kinda laggy and unresponsive

try pausing a song ffs

at least the new hdtv lag calibration allows manual input

I've only played the demo and it's not really an accurate measure of the game since I need hyperspeed to function. I can't really afford it right now it doesn't really matter. I'm saving the money I barely have for Mass Effect and Assassin's Creed and even then I'll probably have to just rent those given my lack of a job

I can't even filez it since I don't have a ps2 guitar anymore

posted 10-25-2007 02:32:28 AM
The lag in pausing is very obviously (I thought) there to HELP you. I would always fuck up after pausing for something because it would go right back into the shit without me knowing where to put my fingers. This way I can kinda realign myself to get ready for the second it's not movin.

And there's 5 levels of hyperspeed lololol

Also, I honestly think there might be something wrong with the torrent or the PS2 version. I'm gonna have to wait till I get a legit and 360 version to make final judgement on the engine. I personally think it's great, but hey, I just can't stop fappin to this game.

Me and my buddy had to work together to beat Raining Blood because we suck haha. He's good at scales and I'm good at rhythm so he did the first half of the song and I did the second half after that fuckass solo in the beginning.

I can't get past 10% on the Metal because I'm apparently much worse at this game than I previously thought

I could probably pass it with hyperspeed, but it wouldn't be a good score

I think it is safe to say that I will never, never be able to beat Through the Fire and Flames on expert, and it wouldn't surprise me if I couldn't even beat it on hard. I unlocked everything (lawl cheating faggot) just to test it out. Oh Jesus. I played it on practice mode in its entirety and it feels like I just crushed my hand with a hammer.

Only thing I have left to do now is beat Lou, and I don't think that'll be happening for a while yet.

I dunno if I like it as much as GH2 anymore, but it's still a solid game. Some technical issues with it that I'm too lazy to discuss atm. Also, some of the 360 guitars (re: a lot of them) are defective which is retarded.
