English - Guitar Hero 3: Legends of Rock - Tutorials (Wii) Edit

All right, enough listening to that guy. Time for some real rock. Let's learn about power cords. That's when two or three notes come at you at the same time. Just hold down the matching fret button...

All right, now you've got star power.

Almost.

Alright, here's what you gotta do. When you see the notes that glow with energy like those in this combo, play every note and you'll extract their energy as the star power boost. Ready to give it a...

And remember, you can always head to practice mode to perfect your technique. Check practice. That's cool. OK, I have had enough of this. I challenge you to a guitar battle for the ages. What's it ...

Any self respecting Guitar Hero knows what this is. It's a whammy bar Nimrod. You can rotate it around to a spot where you like it. Don't know what to do with it here. I'll tell you. When you see l...

Are you ready to become the next God of rock? Splendid, but it will take some practice. Eddie Van Halen may have been born with a guitar in his hand, but he probably didn't learn to play it until h...

Brutal.

Come on, finish him.

Diabolical.

Do it now.

Don't suck.

Excellent.

Excellent. That is the hammer on technique.

Excellent. You can get up to three power ups loaded. Remember, if you don't finish off your opponent by the end of the song, it goes into sudden death where every powerup can kill you. That's guita...

Give it a go.

Go ahead, give it a try.

Hammer irons takes some time to master, but do not despair, they are worth your while.

Here is your guitar. Let us start simply. On the neck of the guitar we have the five fret buttons. Hold one down to choose the note. Then to play the note that you've chosen, use the strum bar. You...

I will now test your hammer on mastery. Here comes some more notes. Use hammer irons to hit them.

It may be tricky at first, but you'll be a rock deity in no time. Oh, a word of advice. If you're playing the same note twice or more in a row, just keep the fret button held down.

Job well done learning star power. Now it's time to learn something new. How the mighty triumph over the wicked in guitar battle.

Keep the whammy bar moving to gain even more star power, and don't forget to keep the fret button held down.

Keep trying.

Keep trying.

Let us proceed. After you strum a note, you can change the note without strumming again if the notes are close together. This is the essence of hammer ONS and pull offs. They are how guitar heroes ...

Man, he makes it sound so boring. Now for the fun stuff, unleashing Hellfire in a guitar battle attack. See that symbol that just popped up? That tells you what kind of attack you can unleash. Righ...

Man, I thought that guy had never shut up. You're almost a total shredder. All you need to learn is pull offs. They're basically the same trick as a hammer on, but in reverse. I'll break it down fo...

Nice job.

Nice.

Nice.

Not quite.

Now let us tune up your instrument. To tune a note, hold down a fret button, then strum up and down a couple of times.

Now listen up. Battle mode isn't about surviving. It's about beating your opponent into submission. And there's no better way to do that than firing multiple attacks. Right now you have two attacks...

Now that your strings are in perfect harmony, you are ready to play. Notes will move towards you on the fret board. Hold down the fret buttons to match the notes. When a note crosses the target on ...

Now try and play some more notes. Match the note colors to the fret buttons and use the strum bar to play them. When you have hit enough, we shall proceed.

Now you try it.

OK, I think you got the idea. Remember, the essence of hammer ONS and pull offs is to strum one note and fret the rest.

Pardon my slightly misguided colleague. Let us get back to your rock education. This is the rock meter. It measures how well you play and what the crowd thinks of you. If you are playing adequately...

Perfect.

Perfect.

Piece of cake.

Practice pull offs on this group of notes I'm sending your way.

Really good.

Remarkably simple indeed.

Remember, the trick is to keep the fret button held down for the entire node length.

Rockin.

Since someone keeps fighting me for the opportunity to enlighten you, continue on to the next tutorial and I will show you something new. How to smite the wicked in the epic struggle known as guita...

Sinister.

So close.

So close.

So next time you try to shred something really fast, remember your hammer ONS and pull offs.

Sounds good.

Sufficient and your skills will increase with more practice.

Well now battle mode isn't all fun and games, is it? There are many different types of attacks. Some make it harder to hit notes, and some require you to fix your guitar. It appears as though your ...

When a long note comes at you, hold down the fret button and strum as usual. Then keep holding down that fret button for the entire length. If you let go too early, you'll know it because the sound...

When you are facing off against another player in guitar battle or battling a boss guitar player in your career, star power no longer applies. Instead, you have battle power, which allows you to at...

When you hold down the fret button, think of it as pressing the string against the neck of the guitar. It's when you strum the note that the string vibrates and makes the sound. If you're holding m...

When your star power meter flashes, it's telling you you're ready to unleash some rock'n'roll fury. Then you can tilt your guitar up to release the star power. The result is demonic. The crowd goes...

Wicked.

Xellent.

Yeah, yeah, whatever. Hook up with me later and I'll show you some other good stuff like star power and how to show off your skills in a guitar battle.

You are now ready to proceed.

You got it.

You got it.
