It's great to get a look at how they're charting this time around. It seems like it's still more complex then Rock Band, but I don't see as much overcharting as GH3. It's in a good place.

I've looked at a lot of these vids and they've made me want the game a lot more than I did before. It looks like it'll be like GH2 where the set list will look mediocre on paper but fun in game. Plus the touch strip on the guitar will be just plain awesome.

Or the last minute and a half of Satch Boogie.  I mean, c'mon.  I fucking hate Neversoft.  I really do."

Yeah I could see Satch Boogie being trimmed down a bit, but c'mon. Most of the people who bitch about overcharting are just made because they can't beat the song. I used to be pissed off that the TTFAF intro in played on keyboard, but it could also be translated easily to guitar. And also, if we're going to blame Neversoft here, let me direct you to Harmonix on their chart of the solo in the song "Blackened" by Metallica. There's a certain section (the exact letter name escapes me) that's just a muddled mess of notes. Same could be said for the Constant Motion chart. Both of these developers are guilty of it, it's only more apparent in GH because those games are known for their difficulty.

Rock Band still Rocks

Why have they still not changed the terrible art style of Guitar Hero? The characters are so ugly to look at.

Really? I can't beat TTFAF and I don't complain about the intro, I do however complain about how terribly charted Before I Forget was. 3's and 7's is another good example of terrible charting.

And has it ever crossed your mind that just because a solo is hard and is translated as such on a chart it doesn't mean that its overcharted? Yes Constant Motion's solo is insane, but overcharted it is not."

Exactly, if a song is hard to play, then it should be hard in the game. Not made artificially difficult due to stupid charting.

And yea that solo is FUCKING INSANE

I really wish they would change the art style, I really think GH:WT's graphics aren't good at all.

Also, this may just be me, or is animations in GH:WT no where near as good in RB2? In RB2 the characters do so much more, and look a lot better doing what they do then what happens in GH:WT....do the characters even interact with each other in GH:WT?"
