Xbox (not so) Live(ly)

Or maybe it's just Activision or RedOctane's fault..

Anyway.

I got Guitar Hero 2 and 3 last week, because they were insanely (or relatively) cheap, and immediately started clocking up some time with the games. I breezed through GH2 on Hard without having to retry anything. I also beat the infamous Jordan song thinger. Again, I beat it first go.

Here's my GH2 majiggy. And I just noticed that it says you've got truckload of pain when it should either be truckloads or a truckload. Silly American Engrish.



And that Dragonforce son of a bitch.



I am now officially putting Guitar Hero up there as one of my all time favourite music rhythm games. It sits comfortably alongside other games like Ouendan (on the DS), DDR (at least all of the DDR's before this shit on 360 came out -_-), and drum games like Donkey Konga and Taiko no Tatsujin.

So while I await GH: Aerosmith, and GH4 later in the year, I can kick back and play these majiggies.

Anddddd done. For now.

Edit: I totally forgot to write about what I was going to whine about in the first place.

The online scoreboards that live @ GuitarHero.com take forever to update. My GH3 stats have sat at around 78% Expert Career completion, but the score didn't update. And the same can be said for all the other careers. With the Wii version, it only took a few hours for things to update, and the 360 scoreboards take a week? Insanity. But they did update today, or at least they partially updated. Well, in time I will conquer all of GH3, and by all I mean Easy, Medium, and then a good chunk of Hard and Expert. So sometime in the future my scores should be all shiny and online.

Now I'm really done.
