i spent countless tries just trying to pass this song on expert back in the day and never could pull it off. i could pass through the fire and flames on guitar hero three but never got this one down. me and a friend once passed shout at the devil on expert with are toes cause we were bored lol. i hit the notes while he strummed the string thing or whatever its called i forget. the things you do when ur 12 super bored and all jacked up on mountain dew lol. the good ol days
Especially since the timing window to hit notes in Guitar Hero 2 is much smaller than the later games. Jordan is absolutely one of the hardest songs in the series.
Yeah this was when I gave up. I believe I beat EVERY song except this one on Expert. The problem is that it's such a HUGE jump in difficulty, even beating every other song on expert doesn't really help much. Also didn't find it very fun or rewarding to keep practicing every individual segment for hours. Didn't feel bad leaving this one song not beaten.
I got it ONCE on Expert Mode. It was grueling dude (or dudette). Still. What an accomplishment. I got so good at that game that I 40% Black Winter Night on a hacked PS2 on my first try when I met my (at the time) new friends in 2007.
Just keep going, or get a real guitar. I JUST bought myself an electric drum kit, and I'm never looking back. Guitar Hero is fun, but a real instrument is a WHOLE other Ball Game.
1:49 you gotta hold on as long as possible they deploy star power as late as you can. Before solo f get as much star power as possible again for the last part of the solo if that's trouble too. Solo f is all scrolling
Incase any idiots think this is fake, bots can not activate star power, they cannot use the whammy bar, they only hold down the necessary button unlike this guy did in the beginning of the video, and when using a bot, the score resets every four seconds.
@@DrewPicklesTheDark there definitely 8s one that can not only whammy, but activate star power now. I believe helgabot can do both without resetting power....just saying...however this appears to be the actual game as well
@Tylenol PM this is true/used to be. I wouldn't be able to play like that at all....however on clone hero Theres versions where the flames dont come out either and I don't see how the players can deal with that. Itd funk up the mojo imo n make me feel like I missed. Also. Their is a bot called helgabot that legit does all of the above....perfect, star power and even whammybar to gain more.
six by all that remains was always my favorite. this game is what gave me the motivation to learn it on actual guitar lol. along with several other songs from guitar hero like my curse by killswitch and many more.
@@Somerandomperson-hl1kt Yeah, that happens naturally, a lot of Guitar Hero is pattern memorisation. Play the sing enough times and you don't even need to look at the screen to know what's coming up. Play it some more and you can play songs literally blindfolded. I never quite got to that point, but there were a lot of songs I could play while barely paying attention to the screen.
Completing the song alone is a hard task for me, especially having to close off some of the multi-note chunks, barely can squeeze through the song on 75%, on Expert.
I remember thinking this song was just hard with a bunch of random noise and notes when I was young. Now im the biggest buckethead fan ever and love this track as well. There are so many masterpieces by the man to be found it's insane. He is a genius.
@@gamersunited4679 Don't think I have heard that one actually. My favorites are probably Baptism of Solitude or Nottingham Lace but there are so many. Also, the live version of Whitewash is a masterpiece.

I remember how this looked like all jumbled up randomness back in the day. Now it doesn’t look nearly as hard and I make out the pattern of the notes in the solo
what I always found funny about this song is its just some random song stuck in the middle of all the bonus tracks. like imagine your first playthrough, coasting through all the bonus songs, you play this song and think its pretty easy, and then hit the hardest solo in all of GH2 with literally 0 indication the song was that hard lol. you fail and just sit in awe like, wtf just happened
Props to him for fcing on a laggy HDTV (you can tell because he hits all the notes late and there's been lag calibration done, that's why the audio doesn't match up exactly)
This song is pretty easy to play! If you are playing it on a different engine like GH3/ Clone hero etc on GH2 the accuracy is unforgiving you have to literally be on point with every single note which made songs like this a nightmare to pass. Honestly if TTFAF or TDWDTG were on here not alot of people would be able to complete it. Rockband is a whole other story.
How the hell did that? Need some adrenaline in my fingers to perfect that note. This song is too hard to perfect especially in joystick. Hard as fuck as always.
One of my relatives played ttfaf so much that he can fc it on expert without looking.... meanwhile it took me like 20 tries to actually only COMPLETE it on easy... I suck at GH
until today im still amazed how bucket head can play this with a rubber chicken in his other hand
Because he is god, obviously
I wish Buckethead was in this game as a playable character.
He seems like the kinda guy in at the very least, fame terms to do this
I agree, would be epic to have him there if you beat this song on expert or five starred it on expert ❤️🤟
Yeah
Not everyone want to be in the spotlight
What would be insanely cool is if they made a guitar hero dedicated only to buckethead .
2:21 Used to be called freedom
The fabled BNOF (Blue Note of Freedom)!

Possibly harder than the final part of the "solo" in "Black Widow of La Porte" only because tap notes haven't been idealized yet
Especially since the timing window to hit notes in Guitar Hero 2 is much smaller than the later games. Jordan is absolutely one of the hardest songs in the series.

I FCed it once on expert... On bass.

I 5* this song in highschool in 2007 and the class went crazy haha this game and GH3 was so fun at the time.
This is harder than Through the Fire and Flames.
for sure
If you are playing it on a GH2 engine like in the video, yeah for sure
Oh Yeh once you get to the solos without Starpower you're done
On an actual guitar too
@@Mrbradboy1 I agree it’s harder but once I make it past the back and forth 1, 2s I’m good.
2021 and i still love this, guitar hero 2 is the best era.
2010 kids would never know how hard this song is🤣
I've watched this video countless times over the years. It's like an old friend.
2:47 sounds like it could be a song from Portal.
Maybe part of the final boss of P2?
Like Tom Morello
Retro Journey Archive I could see where your going with that dude.
I feel like even that is too light for portal
Oh shit, it actually does.
1:28 Ah shit, here we go again.
Hardest song to play on guitar hero 2, Hang in there guitarheroROX!
Buckethead has shredded the mozzarella,
Damn right he has
this made me deppresed cause of how many guitar hero 2 guitars i broke whilst raging at this all those years ago
Guitar hero 2 will always be my favourite one because of this song

Is it just me or dose is this one of those songs that get stuck in your head
Great accomplishment, my duuude!! Been trying to pass this song since I was 13..
Did You?
I grew up calling 1:50 - 2:20 the wall of skittles, could never FC it no matter how many times I tried
great job, the feeling of finally getting this fc is the highlight of my gh days, enjoy it
I remember alot of these songs became more memorizing it to where you could almost play it blindfolded just to be able to play it right xD
Blindfolded? Yep. One of my relatives played ttfatf so much that he could fc it on expert without looking....

the reason why this is probably the hardest song in the guitar hero series is because of the insanely tiny space in which you can hit notes
id say this is the hardest. the devil went down to georgia was gnarly as well
I'm 100% convinced a human being couldnt possibly do this back on that archaic system.

Guitar controller
You just press nd hold the green fret button and strum it repeatedly
