After finishing that career run, I then tried a few songs on Hard and was surprised to see just how much I had improved just because I was now used to the idea of swapping my index finger between Green and Red. I am still not completely there yet with Hard due to playing other games and of course, now, my 360 deciding not to work on me but I am confident now that with some more practise I will be able to 5 star it no problem. Meaning Expert is next...<BR/><BR/>I definitely suggest you try a Medium career swapping your index finger, or your pinky (whichever one is more comfortable to you) between two colours, doing so will see you get used to the method and therefore the hand shift won't be as hard when you resume playing Hard again.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00626684107210848128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1083509480143917931.post-76222133707943240022008-09-29T07:24:00.000+10:002008-09-29T07:24:00.000+10:00Although I've never owned a Guitar Hero or Rock Ba...Although I've never owned a Guitar Hero or Rock Band game, I've played a fair amount at friends' houses. <BR/><BR/>I'm not that great, but the wheels really come off when I try out a song that incorporates the 5th button. I can never decide whether to do the "pinky stretch" or "hand shift," so it was interesting to see your take on it.<BR/><BR/>Have you settled on a technique yet?Scott Justerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11775296635863850847noreply@blogger.com
