5 stars on all the Hard songs today. Star power as it turns out is my friend afterall. Also got a nice bump up the Leaderboards for my efforts. Probably drop back down tomorrow. Trooper on Hard almost got me though, I had to practise to learn the repeating 3 quick note sections (Verse 1b for example I think). I have to say I've always hated parts like that where you have to strum up and down really fast because it usually sounds horrible, but won't kill you. You're only missing one out of every 5 notes let's say, but all you hear is PLUNK PLUNK PLUNK PLUNK PLUNK. I gotta say though, once I learned that section in Trooper though, it was soooooo satisfying to play right!
I think I've heard somone at Harmonix say this. When they were testing, actual guitar players had trouble since like you said, they would play notes they weren't supposed to, playing by ear so to speak. Normal video game players would have less trouble because they would depend more on watching the notes reach the bottom, playing by 'sight'.
