Hammer-Ons/Pull-Offs

Denoted with a white outline, instead of black, these buttons allow you to press the button without strumming (as long as you hit the regular note before them). These show up a lot more on Hard and Expert, and is what many need to perfect. Like in a real song playlist, these help people conserve energy for strumming. Too much strumming will tire you out, so practice these techniques.

Also, remember that for the solo notes, only the highest note will be played (as long as there is no chords). So you can hold the lower notes, and just lift your finger(s) to hit the other notes.

Well that explains the lack of strumming then

What about this then, people really have nothing better to do with thier time.

I know I am having a bit of a pop at the Hero geeks, but it is a qualtiy game. Everyone who comes round the house ends up hooked on it.

£50 is a great price as long as you get the guitar with it. I paid £70 last month.
