IMHO, best video game accomplishment ever on the 2nd hardest Guitar Hero song ever. Just crazy to watch this:

Heh, I looked at the clock about six minutes in and realized the background effect got me.

I never understood why people find Guitar Hero a hard game. It took me... 2 tries before I could get a perfect score on Through the Fire and the Flames (well, 100% because I could never be bothered with star power).

Also, Through the Fire and the Flames is one of Dragon Forces most easy (and boring) songs to play.
I'll be more impressed when he can play something like this http://youtube.com/watch?v=oCN9_S-RxSw

I can understand folks trying to hide agendas... that's fine, that's part of life. But dude, if lying were farting, you've just let out a big one; and all that's happened is that the room smells bad.

If he actually played that.....that's damn impressive. I'm more of a drums guy myself though.

Guitar Hero is an easy game. Admittedly, I'd played it a fair amount before even trying Through the Fire and the Flames (own previous games, had to complete the game to unlock the song, and I completed it on expert). But still, it's not a particularly difficult song, just slightly faster. Most people don't seem to realize it, but most Dragon Force songs are editted, and in actuallity they are really sloppy players and most of their songs use really cheap licks that facilitate "fast" playing.

Also, I play REAL guitar. Your 5 little string/fret (whatever they are) buttons are nothing compared to my guitar which has 6 strings AND 24 frets (which translates into 144 buttons!).

Hahaha, even a 9 year old can play this games hardest song and make it look easy.

Yo, it's alright, when you fart in the room, just exit quietly... we know you farted, and it's alright; just don't draw attention to yourself.

Yeah, except they're really no comparison. It's like comparing Dance Dance Revolution to Ballet.

Even people who play on expert and FC every track admit that at that point in the game it's all about memorization so getting it on your second try is pretty much impossible.

And on top of that, Guitar Hero doesn't even follow the beats of the songs. They just slap shitloads of buttons on every note to try and make it harder.
