aliensNmycloset Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 rock band 2 is actually a LOT easier than the previous guitar hero titles. For the guitar I would put it at a 5. if you're not familiar with drums and how hats work etc...it can be quite challenging, but anyone with rhythm can pick them up. the singing is just easy. I would average all of this out to a time consuming 7 for the platinum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordofnight Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 I gave it a 7 do to some very time consuming trophies . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiftyQuid Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Glad to see so many 7's, 8's, and up on this game. I gave it a 10 as I'm never going to see this Platinum. I don't have the skill level to finish the ESL2 on Expert. It's the only game to date that I've given up on getting 100%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harleydude_202 Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 6, mainly the bladder os steel and having to beat the endless set list twice! plus the drums can be a lil challenging if ur not into them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mKilla09 Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 you don't have to beat it twice, but i would only play it once if i was a pro on all expert songs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_End Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 I gave it a 7 mainly because of the ESL2 and BoS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferny Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 (edited) It just takes too long to get good enough...and some people can't even reach that level of plastic guitar shredding xD Those of you who have this platinum, props, but I think I'll stick to playing hard and expert once in a while Gave it an 8 cause some of the trophies are really easy to acquire while others could wind up snapping your wrist off Edited May 22, 2009 by Ferny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyyMartyyMar Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 10 ESL2 took hard work for me on drums and if you dont have family members to help you boost trophies like bachman trophy and you cant find people online it takes a while but very hard if your not skilled with fake instruments Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mxza1000gmail.com Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 if you are used to playing on expert and very good. 6 just for time consumption. If not 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jqtaxpayer Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 I voted this one an 8... trophies are very time-consuming and some of them are very difficult. It helps to have a person helping out with Bladder of Steel, that's for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bambookid33 Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 I gave it a 10 because it is very hard to get through the Endless Setlist 2 on Expert. I can't get through Visions or Panic Attack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeDohn Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 This is a nine or a ten for anyone who doesn't have an unemployed girlfriend with fairly decent vocal control. In all seriousness though, some of these trophies are tough. Some are even worse than tough. The Bladder of Steel one can be taken together with three other trophies (medium, hard and expert completion of Endless II - probably also the $100.000 worth of shopping, as you'll get both expensive clothes and a dumpster load of cash thrown after you upon completion), but will nonetheless take you somewhere around seven hours of straight gaming - and you can't fail. Those aren't the hardest ones in my opinion though. I'm having some severe problems coordinating my hands and feet enough for the last two drum trainer trophies, and can't seem to improve enough. Technically you'll simply have be able to play (or know someone who can play) drums properly if you want the platinum. The last one I've had trouble with is the 1.000.000 point trophy, much because I can't find friends who can play well enough to be of any help. It's more of a question of effort than skill though, so it will come sooner or later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legndorock Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 I gave it an 8 for the average player that plays this game every once in a while it will be very hard for them to beat the endless setlist on expert not allowing them to get platinum. Or you could be in my situation you can beat it its just that it takes 7 hours and I dont have that kind of time so i have to wait for the summer when im off from school. This is one of those games you actually need to practice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
synninviemaa666 Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 The bladder of steel is a total bitch, specially when you run out of batteries near the last song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docmartin Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 I gave it a 9. I did the ESL on expert bass and needed to do it with a friend good enough to save me twice on that abomination of a song "Visions". Time consuming especially if you have to practice a bunch to get good enough to do ESL on expert and get through the drum trainer ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TACOS_4_VATOS Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 6. By now 'everyone's' the greatest at these music games. If you've been playing since around the time GH became popular, you'll find this less hard and more time-consuming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overkill Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 (edited) Not too hard, the only thing that has any challenge is ESL2 on expert. I did that one and bladder of steel in 1 go and I just barely made it by visions. I gave this plat a 6 rating, but for anyone who doesn't play expert I can see this being brutal.

squodge Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 6. By now 'everyone's' the greatest at these music games. If you've been playing since around the time GH became popular, you'll find this less hard and more time-consuming. I'm guessing you've voted BECAUSE you've already got the Platinum, rather than just speculating? Lots of people have played these games since the first Guitar Hero and still can't coordinate anything above medium. It's not how much you play it; it's whether you have good hand-to-eye coordination. I'm voting this an 8. Here's why: The Beat Goes On: This is brutal, even for those who play a bit of drums. 180bpm for half the beats, or 100bpm for all the beats, is tough going. I finally beat it this afternoon after hours of swearing. Bladder of Steel: This is an easy trophy, just play on medium on guitar or bass; use a wireless guitar (because a wired guitar might well become loose if you get too excited and pull the guitar out accidentally). Platinum Artist: Best way is expert vocals. I can't sing to save my life; but I hummed most of the songs the other night, and only two songs needed multiple tries (Carry on Wayward Son; Spoonman). I rate 8 because The Beat Goes On and Platinum Artist are what will separate most people from getting Platinum. Bladder of Steel might be a gold trophy, but it's one of the easiest gold trophies I've ever managed (try getting a gold trophy in wipEout HD!) ~ squodge ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I_SLEEP_NOW_zZz Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 I give it a 7. The Endless Setlist on expert is going to be a pain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frostboy74 Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 the drum trainer ones gave me some trouble I give it a 9/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lostsaint18 Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 Seeing that I still cannot get over the medium hump for about half the songs I am giving this a 10. I also have tagged this as a game that I have no hope of ever getting a platinum in. I enjoy playing the songs on medium but the addition of the 5th button and the faster speed makes it feel like the difficulty from medium to hard is a huge jump.

heyzeus11 Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 this all depends on if you can play visions on expert bass.....and play for 6 and a half hours straight, all i have to do is beat it on expert which i dont wnt to do cause it takes too friggin long Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starcrunch061 Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 6, mainly the bladder os steel and having to beat the endless set list twice! plus the drums can be a lil challenging if ur not into them. You don't have to beat the Endless Setlist twice. I gave this an 8, though. The fact is, there are some people that just aren't good at this type of game, and they are sunk. No, the trophies aren't as bad as, say, Guitar Hero Metallica (a couple of which are absolutely absurd), but they will break a lot of people. But GH: Metallica is a 10 in my book.

I agree - it took a while to make the jump. Honestly, though, I think the jump from hard to expert is even worse in these games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
