I went on a Guitar Hero bender this weekend and finished the Easy career sequence. Well ahead of Corwin and Dad, I might note. This is probably a once in a lifetime thing since I normally don’t spend enough time gaming (having a life and all) and Corwin and Dad quickly pass me by, so I must savor it while it lasts.
The medium setting looks a lot harder. I’ll actually have to practice and not just sight read my way through. For the metal songs I wasn’t familar with like Miss Murder and Number of the Beast, it was purely note reading.
I will note that Corwin is much better at the game playing aspect than I am. In the guitar battles, you have to pick up attacks and throw them at your opponent while playing. The first opponent took me 8 or more tries to get through. The other ones just took two times each. However, Corwin has passed all guitar battles in the first attempt.
I am sure that you won only because of Alice chanting “go Mommy!” during the tricky sections.
P.S. Charles crashed out Saturday night while Mom was jamming. I sent him to bed, until I heard him crying to himself up there. He was upset because I had banished him to his bed for no reason. I pointed out that he had fallen asleep, which he countered with “you made me do that!”. Apparently Mom’s guitar shredding has charms to sooth the Charles breast.
“Mom is nailing the Riffs of Doom” — haven’t you always wanted to be able to say that?
I’m about 2/3 through the medium sequence now. Corwin is one song away from finishing the easy sequence.
