You need to play in coop mode. The 1st player does the regular guitar, and some of the songs do in fact have a bass or even a rhythm guitar track for the second player.

You don't even know

Strumming up and down instead of just down helps with that. It is 3 full days of not playing now though and my left hand is still not fully healed. I hope I didn't do something serious to it.

Heh, you'll be fine. Yes, strumming up and down is a must for some songs.

I picked up Rock band in Buffalo last week because it is almost impossible to find it in Canada.. My kids loved Guitar hero but after playing Rock Band there is just no comparison.. I'm not sure who has had more fun playing the kids or the adults but as soon as people walk into the house they head straight for the the basement to to play... lol .. Its been on all day every day since I got it and there is no sign of the novelty wearing off anytime soon .. lol ... If your on the fence as to which one to get all the Guitar hero experts( the kids) love Rock Band hands down... You won't be dissapointed.. Merry Christmas all...

Avdude..

I sold a Wii with 3 games... and an extra controller and it went for $530...this was during the summer!

I got tired of waiting for my finger to get better and started playing again today. I think I realized the cause. I jammed it badly in college playing football, and I don't think it ever healed properly. Sometimes it feels like there is a little bit of wiggle in the joint. I think using that finger so much while playing just got it acting up a little bit.

So I have 3 songs left in hard to pass on GHI. About 9 songs left in hard on GHII. I don't like the GHII songs as much though, so I'm not as excited about getting through those.

Anyone tried the PC version of GHIII?

I understand that you have to have A LOT of computer to run it.

Seems kinda silly, that. I'm sorely tempted, though.
