totally. what you don’t need after managing to take the skin of your fingers with songs like reign of blood and one on expert, is lou with his gay little song and gay powerups that only he can get. it actually gave me a headache the other day, that’s how stressed i am getting with it now. i don’t personally think i need to beat a computer-controlled 100% hit machine to prove I can play expert, i just completed the last section, that should be enough. gay. gay. gay. i am so angry with this game that i used to love and whoever it was that came up with this gay idea. at the very least they could have taken lefty flip out cos there is just no way you can come back from that. there’s not even a practice on that last song. gay.

Dude, I’m glad to being playing a Disturbed song. But it would have been cooler if they would have picked “Down With the Sickness” instead of Stricken, but then Stricken does have a fun guitar solo.

Through the Fire and Flames is just a joke; when I tried it on expert for giggles I got 1%. My fav songs, despite not being able to play it on hard for some reason is F.C.P.R.E.M.I.X. - I’m a TFOT fanboy.

@ Khadgar

This is very true. The song is hard enough on its own, but it DOES NOT help to have all those “battle powers” thrown at you.

Well your frustration playing the song is probably true to actually playing it in real life. That’s an odd piece to find in Guitar Hero because it is actually played using a violin, not a guitar.

I cannot see the game actually reproducing what it is like to play the piece other than throwing random things like that at you. Charlie Daniels burns the strings off of a violin every time he plays it. Other artists who have attempted to play it using other instruments such as a guitar have destroyed their guitars playing it. In fact the point of the entire song’s existence is to have the instrument destroyed after it is played.

Have fun. Hope you can beat Lou.
