Guitar Hero 2 for 360

mongol05 · Post by **mongol05** » Wed Apr 11, 2007 7:07 am

Who else has been playing GH2 since it came out? I am absolutely loving it, but today, I was a little hacked off at Activision. They came out with the first set of track packs to download. Three songs per pack, 500 MS points each, or about $6.25 US. I personally think that is a little much for the number of songs you get. I was hoping for more like $1.00 per song.

Anybody else have an opinion?

I got it over the weekend. I already completed all of the songs on medium (spoiler below). I play real guitar and I have to say that playing on hard and expert is many times harder than playing the actual song for real. It's hard for me too because on easy/medium they skip a lot of in between notes and rythms and I try to play them out of habit. Sometimes it's easier playing songs you don't know.

BTW - there appears to be an issue with some models of theguitar. Check out the manufacturers website for more info (I saw this on engadget). I was disappointed that the guitar is not wireless.

**SPOILER***

The final track is Free Bird!

I want a 360 just for this game.

I'm still working on Medium, I first wanted to get all 5s on Easy, which I accomplished early last week, and just haven't had time to play it lately (a co-worker of mine let me borrow Shivering Isles, so I'm going through that as well as playing C&C 3, so busy =P)

I calculated that if they release all the songs from GH 1 in the same way they've done the first 3 track packs, it would cost $62.50, which seems entirely too pricy.

I'm not sure what songs are in GH1 but I'd like to have those too.

True. "All About The Games" Should really be changed to "PC Games", that would reduce confusion.
