this game is okay but it sort of is hard because when you play on hard it sometimes makes it impossible like making a 5 note chord so if you intend to be breaking records on expert mode dont get this game. it is okay for learning and not pro usage

I ordered this game when I first got to Iraq, almost a year ago. I figured this game could serve as something to do in between my down-time, maybe not dwell as much on how much I miss my family. Almost a year later and I give a lot of credit for this game getting me through some tough times. Sometimes you'd like an escape from reality, forget where you are for just a little while, and when I play this game that is exactly what happens. For a moment in time I feel like a rockstar and playing is extremely satisfying (yet challenging for me). When I first got this game I played it in easy mode, beat it got bored and tried it on medium. It took a couple of weeks to learn to use the blue button but then I mastered that and got bored and went to using the orange button on hard.

I'll have to say, my biggest complaint about this game was that the jump from medium to hard was huge...they throw 3 button combos at you and it moves really fast, while at the same time you're trying to just learn how to use an additional orange button, and move your hand up and down. I got really frustrated with the game but kept on persisting to try to learn. After, a couple of months I was able to get through some songs on hard albeit a very painful road. As of today, I play the game on Expert and usually 3 or 4 star the songs. The only 5 star on expert that I got was on my "My Name is Jonas" so I'm still learning, but the transition from hard to expert was fairly easy...nothing compared from going from medium to hard. Not sure if the other guitar hero games had these kinds of transitions in difficulty, as this was my first guitar hero experience.

The guitar is well constructed, I haven't had any problems with the buttons on the guitar or the issue that people mentioned with the neck of the guitar coming loose etc. For the last 11 months, the guitar has held up to the Iraqi heat and dust without any problems or maintenance. I've only changed out the batteries onces since I've purchased this and no connectivity issues with the PS2, its pretty simple - just turn it on. The only gripe I have is sometimes the star power will activate even though I didn't tilt the guitar or hit the select key...not all the time just every onece in a while.

All in all, in a silly kind of way, playing this game is extremely rewarding for me, I enjoy it and think the soundtrack is pretty good (my favs: paint it black, black magic woman and cliffs of dover). I don't get to play every day but when I do play, it's a treat. Whether my logic is right or wrong on this, I like that fact that I forget where I'm at...if just for a moment.

The game is awesome. Awesome for the price!!
I would like to say that I am overly impressed with the shipping and delivery. I ordered this box on Thursday, some time during the day. I received it the next day and 5 pm.
I was expecting a week or 2, maybe more, when the UPS driver knocked on my door. The product came from Kentucky! Kentucky to Montreal, at my door within 28 hours!!!! WOW!!
I love that all previous games and Guitar Hero 5 all work with any instrument, old or new.
I love shopping at amazon!
