  XBL Friend Requests

  Just letting you guys know, I recently got an XBL gamertag, and I know a few of you may have already sent me friend requests. I just wanted to let you know that I don't have XBL. I have to go to a friends house to sign in and his XBL has been screwing up lately, so until he gets it straightened out I won't be able to accept your friend requests. By the way, I have 4001/7200 gamerscore.

  Jordan... 5 Stars!!!

  Last night at 7:15 PM, I was casually playing through Jordan and was shocked after discovering I had received 5 stars on the menace. Jordan is hands down the most difficult song in any Guitar Hero game to date. Including customs, Jordan is second only to Operation Ground and Pound by Dragonforce. So you can imagine I feel pretty good right now, I called all my friends as soon as it happened. I took wuLFe's advice on passing the song; try to strum every note. That's all you can do. This means I have 5 stars on every Guitar Hero song except for The Way It Ends.

  Now if I can just pass Operation Ground and Pound! Anyways, here are the details.

  Through the Fire and Flames... 5 Stars At Last

  Yesterday, at approximately 4:30 PM, I managed to somehow pwn the last boss in Guitar Hero 3: Legends of Rock. Through the Fire and Flames is considered by many to be the hardest song on Guitar Hero 3. In my opinion, the downloadable version of The Devil Went Down To Georgia is the hardest. Nevertheless, I scored 5 stars on this song, which is probably my greatest Guitar Hero achievement to date(followed by finishing Jordan on Guitar Hero 2 with 4 stars). Here's the breakdown. If I were to give any advice at all... try to keep a combo going. Never just decide to miss a note or string of notes because you think it's impossible. If you can keep a steady combo of 4x or higher, you'll have a great chance of clearing the song with 5 stars.
