cartoonjunkie Posted June 8, 2010 Posted June 8, 2010 I just played the whole game on Expert Guitar (minus the DLC songs)... My fingers are screaming, but I LOVE IT!!! I sang a bit Live too... I'm going to wait till later to play Bass and Drums... It really is everything I hoped it would be... But I do have a few complaints... For one... I was very disappointed with the opening intro... I didn't want to watch it till I got the game... I was seriously hoping that it would be as epic as The Beatles intro with animated cartoon Green Day rocking out and what not... Cause the opening cinematic sets the tone of the whole game, they really could have done a better job on it... And second... I was really hoping for a bit more variety in songs... I mean, it's cool that we got the 3 full albums on there, but was it really necessary? I think that they shouldn't have included all of Dookie and 21CB and made room for other good songs... But that's just my opinion... Other than that, I'm very content with the game...
Izzard Posted June 9, 2010 Posted June 9, 2010 I read some reviews. Do you know what I don't get? The fact that almost all critics who have something bad to say about Green Day always say something along the lines of "If you're a fan of older stuff, like my self, like Kerplunk, Dookie ect. then you will not enjoy this concert (or in this case) you will only enjoy playing those songs." I notice it all the time. And in one of the reviews the guy said "Unlike the beetles Green Day seem to just be cashing in on everything possible." (along the lines of that) It shouldn't really matter but...ya know. People never fucking quit.
son Posted June 9, 2010 Posted June 9, 2010 "Unlike the beatles Green Day seem to just be cashing in on everything possible." "Unlike the Beatles" "The Beatles" clearly that person is a fanboy/fangirl and has no clue what he/she is talking about
Nmd Posted June 9, 2010 Posted June 9, 2010 anyone else badly suffering from plastic guitar arm hurt syndrome? yes!! kinda disappointed that so far the videos i've unlocked are live performances i've seen tons of times, but still loving it and more to come I LOVE when Tre is running around at the beginning of FOD and Billie's face at the beginning of Restless Heart Syndrome
minorty13 Posted June 9, 2010 Posted June 9, 2010 I LOVE when Tre is running around at the beginning of FOD and Billie's face at the beginning of Restless Heart Syndrome Ah! I know! When he stands behind Billie and makes faces Is it bad that I wanted to cry when I failed a song and Billie and Mike yelled at Tre?
Nmd Posted June 9, 2010 Posted June 9, 2010 Ah! I know! When he stands behind Billie and makes faces Is it bad that I wanted to cry when I failed a song and Billie and Mike yelled at Tre? Lol a little bit I can't finish JOS on hard
Mari91 Posted June 9, 2010 Posted June 9, 2010 The main issue for me so far is its pretty jarring as a Green Day fan to go from playing songs from Dookie during that era and skip over Insominac, Nimrod, Warning So its odd to play Dookie then BOOM Milton Keyes - American Idiot Era ugh i know! its annoying! Is it me, or when you get a star durring a song it sounds like a microwave going off. -DING- LOL YES IT DOES!! haha now thats all im gonna hear during the game anyone else badly suffering from plastic guitar arm hurt syndrome? haah yeah my fingers are all cramped up and i've completely lost my voice! Lol a little bit I can't finish JOS on hard aww which instrument?
AndrewW91 Posted June 9, 2010 Posted June 9, 2010 I just blew 2 of my speakers playing this. Ugh... Now I can only hear the guitar and very light vocals. And I was playing 21 Guns when it happened..wtf.
Nmd Posted June 9, 2010 Posted June 9, 2010 aww which instrument? guitar.. hopefully I'll get it with more practice
AfterShock Posted June 9, 2010 Posted June 9, 2010 Damn, reading everyone's comments makes me want this game
**nobodylikesyou** Posted June 9, 2010 Posted June 9, 2010 I cant decide if i should buy it for wii, ps3 or xbox. and why isn't this thread pinned? how silly
farley drexel hatcher Posted June 9, 2010 Posted June 9, 2010 Can someone film one of the band arguments, or something? Sounds funny. XD
CarnageXB Posted June 9, 2010 Posted June 9, 2010 I should be getting my 360 back tomorrow and receiving my blue bj rock band guitar on Friday.
kyanther Posted June 9, 2010 Posted June 9, 2010 I just sat down and played the whole damn game straight through on drums. My right wrist hurts like a B___H. I can't remember the last time I was this sucked into a game. I wish it was longer, but well worth the money!!
She-Loves-Him Posted June 9, 2010 Posted June 9, 2010 I was gonna rent it this morning but the Blockbuster by me didn't have it for rental and only had one copy to buy. WTF. Dad kept asking me about it tonight though, and seemed like he was almost hinting we should just buy it.
CarnageXB Posted June 9, 2010 Posted June 9, 2010 The best reviews come from non green day fans because Green Day Fans are going to give it a higher score since their fans. This game is for Green Day fans, it's not for everyone.
XBlade1X Posted June 9, 2010 Posted June 9, 2010 I cant decide if i should buy it for wii, ps3 or xbox. That's okay, but just don't get it for wii, if the graphics haven't already made you frustrated then the loading times definitely will, especially during a playlist waiting for each song to load. The songs are installed as well as cached on my Xbox and around 5 seconds is usually the time spent waiting for something to load. On wii, from that video I saw, the loading screen was at least 30 seconds long.. or something stupid like that. Just tested Jesus of suburbia, and it took 7 seconds to load. times that by 5 and its what you will probably have on the wii.

I can't remember the last time I was this sucked into a game. I wish it was longer, but well worth the money!! Agreed! I'm halfway done already so I keep taking breaks to make the experience last a little longer lol
XBlade1X Posted June 9, 2010 Posted June 9, 2010 Man I really wanna play this online with people but they are all so much better than me at it and my arm hurts so bad... is there anyone on here that just wants to play for fun and doesn't care if we don't get the highest score in the world?
Brian Posted June 9, 2010 Posted June 9, 2010 Im gonna take my ps3 to my friends house and use his internet to download the 6 songs I went to best buy at 10 am and picked up the only copy of the Plus edition. I got really lucky!
Sharmellow Posted June 9, 2010 Posted June 9, 2010 I have this on Wii and the waiting time isn't that long. Under 20 seconds. And this game is really quite fun. I thought it would be a breeze, really easy, but there a few quite challenging songs on guitar. I have yet to try the drums, must get a set this weekend.
