<div class="IPBDescription">Awesome game</div>I just found this game and it's just pure gold. Kind of like guitar hero on keyboard.

I've been playing it all day, and I'm starting to get the hang of the easiest mode.
It comes with only three songs, but you can find a lot more fan made ones.

And remember to hold your keyboard correctly. It seems silly, but it actually makes a lot more sense to play it holding the keyboard like a guitar <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin-fix.gif" />

    And if you have a friend with Guitar Hero, all the better, because the newest version can pull the Guitar Hero songs off of the dvd. It takes a few hours though.

    So, I've been playing this, and my left wrist hurts worse that it does after a night of watching Pay Per View.

    This rocks my face off. I can barely play, though. Best is 95% on the first two songs on easiest. I'm getting GH on the 24th of Oct for sure.

    Yay, 98% with three mistakes on Bang Bang.

    At first the game is frustrating, but when you get better, so does the game <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile-fix.gif" />

    Rock your keyboard!

    *mosh*

    I'm trying to find some decent songs and peen for it, but I guess I won't be finding Meshuggah ones.

    Here are some songs I downloaded from the fan site, that I like to play:
    -Duckburg(I want the tv-series back! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile-fix.gif" />) (Edit: Ducktales, that is)
    -Duke Nukem theme
    -Fake it, moderately difficult
    -Megaman! Not exactly rock, but fun nonetheless <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin-fix.gif" />
    -Vivaldi Four seasons, tough one.

    Edit: I'm really waiting for multiplayer for FOF. Rumor tells there's one coming! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wow.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":0" border="0" alt="wow.gif" />

    I... acquired the Guitar Hero tracks for FoF, all of them. My God. It's hard as hell, even on Easy, but damned if it's not fun. I'm definitely buying GH.
