Guitar Hero 3 - Through the Fire and Flames TAPPING(fingers)

[xXpretatorXx]

a ghost in 1:00 to 1:10

[1875HIBSFC]

what 73 year old would play guitar hero

[bakonfreek]

ur not 73!!!!

[joedaddy888]

did you think that i really was 73?

[bakonfreek]

Possibly...

XD

[ltr450ride]

you need that skill for most tapping

[oogaboogan]

Elbow strumming is not necessary for tapping - if you dont fuck up you only need to strum once.

[ltr450ride]

ya but it is easier if you can start with your fingers already on the right frets thus elbow stuming is needed

[joedaddy888]

also it is nearly impossible to strum with your hand and switch to tapping in some songs like the ending of Raining Blood.

[XSSBB]

Ive never seen anybody tapping in any other song but this...never knew :P

[thecastman97]

jordan

[PsycoKill3r]

i do the intro w/o elbow struming its easy

[thewizardofzoz]

hmmm, yeah, you make ur life hard, holdthe green w/ u left index, tacke teh red and blue with your left middle and ring, and cover the blue and orange with ur right index and middle. your way is way harder, but i guess u wear it like a badge of honor "psshh. y do it the noob way?" right?

[joedaddy888]

no actually i can't do it the way everyone is doing so i tried this way and i tried this way and performed way better.

[oogaboogan]

Elbow strumming is super noobish

[joedaddy888]

it takes more skill than using your hands

[XSSBB]

True since its a harder method to use id say...I always thought you had to play this alot for hours trying to get it just right tapping...IT must be hard being able to try and do it but...Does it get easier if you tap once you get it?

[Leerooy94]

ye when you get it 1 time you will think how cud i think that was hard before

[XSSBB]

I know :P i figured out how to months ago like a day after this video, took me maybe 3 hours( through like 4 days) of trying to get it down. BUt i cant do it anymore since my Stupid orange button broke :(

[THATSWATSH3S3D]

nice

[soulreaperx7x]

HOLY FUCKING SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

nice tv

[sadied0g]

wtf kind of tapping is that? that looks harder than one handed O.O

[KEWB99]

i've seen a lot more people do two-handed tapping than one-handed.

[JJellusionsinc]

it looks like ur fingers are dancing

[WOWitsKIM]

HEHE it does doesn't it!?

[wowmager1216]

nice house just kleen up a bit

[lickitsucka]

elbow tapping im assuming...thats still intense its like your playing lefty kinda ...

[Ildisast3r]

FC = Full combo. Kept a note streak of however many notes there were in the song. I'ts possible to get a 100% without keeping the streak if you overstrum which is when you strum on accident to mess up your streak, but it doesn't count against you in your percentage

[LunarDemise]

Im posting here for this vid and your Easy vid.

First off i wish i could beat TTFAF on anything BUT easy. (i can only get 80% on medium yes im pathetic)

second, regarding your easy vid. i agree that people should have definately READ the topic which clearly did not contain anything regarding the level of the playthrough. Those people who have nothing better to do than throw put downs at others based on incorrect facts are total jerks.

Good job and try to tackle medium next ^_^

[aliensrule1]

what does the FC mean for example in a vid the title is "Through the fire and flames FC 100%"??

[PenguinofDestruction]

FC = full combo (idk what that means tho i guess it just means perfect use of star power and 100%)

[kakashi6708]

actually it means finally completed hope that helped you out :)

[TheSentenceTrailsOff]

it means your note streak is the same as the amount of notes in the song which translates into not over strumming at all so u would have x4 (or x8 with star power) the whole song cept the beginning obviously

[frb4]

FC is a "full combo", having a 4x multiplier through the whole song (i.e. 100% and no overstrums)

[Casey47321]

yo whats your gamertag???

[virtuastudios]

lol i can do that with JUST my left hand going over the top. quite cool :)

[snakeboy809]

creepy O.o

[TravisMaxima]

i tap sort of like that except i just use my right index to keep the gree held down but i keep my left hand normal

[darty1234]

u have disgusting hands and fingers

[jackass9165520]

damn,i've never seen ANYONE tap it like that lol

[gatorboy1444]

lol seems extremely awkward

[cabboseguy083]

nice job but i think thats quite awkward way of tapping

[hobofett12]

your other easy video is cool. why r ppls so pissed you said 100% fc? but you never said expert! lol nice job for this too

[idrinkpudding]

Maybe he just holds it down?

[bomber1230]

yeah lol par if you hold a note thats on the left of the note you have to strum on, the game ignores all the left notes and counts the ones on the rite,which gives him the ability of holding green which pretty much eliminats it from that part of the song since its on the very far left (this dosent work if you try to do the same but on the right of the notes)

[bomber1230]

yeah lol par if you hold a note thats on the left of the note you have to strum on, the game ignores all the left notes and counts the ones on the rite,which gives him the ability of holding green which pretty much eliminats it from that part of the song since its on the very far left (this dosent work if you try to do the same but on the right of the notes)

[uberz118]

yea he did

[uberz118]

if you can clear at least the intro with one hand no miss your a god

[13YearOldGuitarHero]

i can do it on slow on expert. (not slower or slowest)

[uberz118]

i can too almost there

[Mickerster101]

(he was strummiing with his elbow if u didnt know) -.-

[kilik629]

hes holding it with his other hand -.-

[Sparkey93]

woa, i thought you had to be strumming? somebody explain it to me!! im a beginner.

[jbjbjbjb7]

its called hamerons. im to lazy to expl;ai but when notes are shiny you dont have to strum, if you have guitar hero 3 the go to practice then go to tutorials and then go to hameron and pull offs.. sorry for my bad spelling

[Sparkey93]

oh, ok. well im in the process of getting it.

[Dipti95]

If the notes are close together (like in the intro i ttfaf) you only have to strum once and then you only press the frets. If you miss a fret you have to strum again.

[deathskull99]

FFS Why are we saying FFS?

[PuffDaPro]

hell yea way to use that explorer !! lol

[weiszydude]

i remember when i was trying to do this i could never get a sing note and then i tried once and i got them all :P

[blahblahblah3421]

for fucks. sake

[mgressett]

what does ffs mean?

[kirbycommander]

for f*cking sake

[T3H0NLYNUB]

*cough* FOR FUCKING SAKE

[Exxent]

For fucks sake.

[bjorliin]

FFS Its jusst a game!!, when the hell fo u think they will open music classes for some fkn GH? l2p real guitar

[Grell43]

[NarutoFanOf1993]

[Sabotage154]

[KenB22193]

sabatoge, if your gonna correct some1 on their english, do it right. Actually, dont do it, period. Its they're, not there or their lol. they're, contraction, you need to go baack to first grade, not him.

[comfortsIinIsuicide]

[rclyburn]

LMAO

[NarutoFanOf1993]

Oh well I'm sorry. I wasn't paying attention.

And you don't have to be such an ass about it you know.

[NarutoFanOf1993]

*responding to sabotage.*

[IAmTechnoViking]

[omditsme]

moron its THEY'RE not THEIr go back to first grade.

ahahahahahahah. that's hilarious.

it's not there nor their.

it's they're.

hahahaha and by the way, i don't think you learn their, there, and they're in first grade.

you just sleep, eat, play games, and attempt to learn letters and count.

[canonMP830]

haha, yeah it's so funny

[BCarey2293]

I Know - I just wanna be like "if you think they're fake then just play the game retard lol

[RCShura]

The position of your hands is so wierd for me, i prefer 2 fingers of my left hand on geen and red and 3 fingers of my right hand on yellow, blue and orange, i think is easier.

[andrewfisher133]

why do you have to wait for the red

[meprosoccer]

he didnt even touch the friggen green note watch it again

[LimitsExist]

cause u just hold it down!! u dont need to strum green..... nice work and thanx for the vid aswell

[meprosoccer]

i didnt even c him hold it down though:P

[nyybaseball03]

he is holding it down w/ one hand

and the other is playing all the other notes

once you learn how to do the begining

and "What the..?!"

the song isnt even that hard anymore

[capshockeyplayer]

your mom ok? thats right

[nyybaseball03]

that doesnt even make any sence...

[Grell43]

He is holding it with his right hand you idiot. Take another look.

[YllenNoslen]

nice

[dcatmusic]

how do you do overhand tapping

[RealityFly76]

looks like a spider....:D

[mathias10204]

wow, thats an interesting way to tap the intro.

[slayer50890]

lol

[meprosoccer]

hahaha

[ScootttLimited]

ok yur good

[Rage1994]

if seen much,much better...

[predi5466]

how do you make the start ????

[worthlessprotoplasm]

No duh! He used his elbow/

[dreamkitchen07]

get a life dude!

[slayer50890]

froob

[KenB22193]

youre the one watching his videos on youtube, give him a freakin break.

[stormcrow113]

i found it easier if you switch your hands in the beginning. maybe thats only because thats how i first tried it.

[crockerspaniel]

but guys he's not even hitting the strummer!

lol

[jinhk93]

he uses his elbow to hold it down i think

[MikeVerbeek]

hammerons...

[crockerspaniel]

haha I was makin fun of the retards who commented earlier

[Hainesworth]

put a rubber band on the green fret button to hold it down on the intro and play the rest as a hammer on the rest of the song is somewhat easy after that

[DarthIracundus]

I tried that with Jordan on GH2...it didn't work too well. It threw off my whole rythm.

[TheGreatPhoenixFilms]

Nice TV.

[DBLKWZY]

ummm... completely weird ass method.. watch KoTerrors method, that helped me the most..

[Dadelai]

Nice... someone else figured it out... of course in practice, the bigining is called THEY'RE HAMMER ONS! just saying.

[dilaneesus]

nice spelling

[blackviper111]

so all this time ive been frustrating myself getting annoyed cause i just cant keep the intro up strumming to find out i just need to tap anyway xD

[TheF3ar3d]

How do you get hammer ons? Do you strum at all?

[Littlev234]

no when you see the notes that have a bright light in the middle or glow it means you dont have to strum

[lmc100]

although to do that you must strum the note before the hammer on.

[thetopfisher]

why isnt he hitting the strum?

[Popop878]

Hammer-ons and Pull-offs...

[Kbiscu1t]

There are better ways, but it passes you through the intro doesn't it? Nice job. If you were to try and 4 star or ever 5 star you might want to switch to a different method, that intro gets you a shitload of point. Keep rockin'

[L1NK666XL1NK666]

crazy cunt...

[avatartylor]

anyone that says that that is not an O.K method is just wrong. We all know there is better methods but he was just showing a point. Also, whoever called hi a faggot jsut because he plays this song, DONT POST NEGATIVE COMMENTS!

[tony70516]

theres easier ways bro

[kamokid982]

Your pinky has the fucking reflex of a rattlesnake.

:D

[candilion34]

how'd you get the horns on that fat guy..it'snot on my gh3..

[SportsKid777]

FAGGET

[lazyboy369]

y does everyone critisize people of being faggots just beacuse they can do this song.. i would love to be able to do this on mine

[cameraman1001]

this kid is a faggot your right and lazyboy stfu homo

[zeldafan9577]

you shut the fuck up he isnt a faget stop calling people fagets just becuase they can do this song i swear your retreted

[bowler162]

these videos helped me do this, i can do it about 97% on intro now =). When i can make videos ill make one of me doing it

[XCAP7AINX]

nice dude, but go eat man, you look bony as shit lol.

[theedgechronicles2]

NICE

[charliehaverty]

them are some crepy ass lookin hands but good job

[IIIIIIIIIIllllllllll]

You don't have to strum?... o.o

[WorldRecordsAndStuff]

new thing called hammer-ns and pull-offs

[Teh9Taco]

not rly new...

[Kakaaddicts]

there not new at all lol.

[dog91011]

hands look like adancing spider lol jk jk good job!

[dragonfablemasta]

LOL!!!

[pepposole]

nice sofa

[SuperSpitt81]

I love how noobs show up and say "you cheated cuz you didn't strum at all!!"

I've been practicing tapping the intro for about an hour, and still can't do it to save my life. I can do it fine with one hand, but I can't tap for nothing. That's pretty interesting, I don't think I've seen anyone else do it with their fret hand on top.

Good job man.

[youdontknowmegigna]

what exactly is "tapping" is that just using your hand over the guitar during hammer ons?

[bighugejake]

If you played real guitar you'd know. It's when you use your right hand (or left hand for left handers) to tap a note without having to pick it. It is not required to place your hand over the top of the neck to accomplish this. You just have to hit the note with a finger from the hand that doesn't normally push the "strings" into the "frets." Help?

[xTheSimulatorx]

ahh haha funny dissing this guy... that takes skill to do it the way he does.. lets see you give it a shot?

nice vid man *claps*

[shaun135961]

haha why do ppl strum with there elbow i strum with my hand then move into tapping ill take a vid when i get my camra working

[broncofreak1159]

like the first vid..

[broncofreak1159]

nice but would have been nice to see how good or bad u were doing...

[CelesteDealcroix]

NOT BAD!!!!

[sheepincarnate]

watb hells all this tapping stuff? I just play one hand strumm and 1 hand on buttons....WTF how can u strum with ur fricking elbow fast!

[mstwntd69]

they're all hammer-ons so you strum with your elbow so your hands already up there dumbass you only need to strum once

[imbaz19]

lol sheepincarnate :P

[leptitgro]

YOU IDIOTS!!! it doesent change a dam thing hes playing on the wii hes a still a pro that truly deserves the title of gutar hero!

[chaosbl4de]

he'd probably rather be called "guitar hero", not gutar hero

[jukeman69]

wait, curse my eyes, are u tapping the intro with 1 HAND!? Dude, thats nuts, i have to use both my hands to tap or else i suck at the intro. U prolly should use both hands except u wont be able to elbow strum but u can strum rly quickly with ur strum hand and and go right back to tapping.

Left hand index holding green, left hand middle finger tapping red and yellow, right hand index tapping blue and orange, thats my technique i got from someone else.

[winall97]

I can't even do this song on Medium I get to 13% and fail

[Inbasul]

play it over and over again in practice mode on full speed. You'll FC it in a week or two at least on medium.

[klv0617]

rofl copter.

[MoldyPotato1]

u havnt even got a gh3 guitar

[aakashisabeasthouse]

so what?

[jakeyashamari]

[HeavenlyRa]

Why don't you play the game with the lights on?!

[Whiplash948]

[OcLover16]

[Nel97]

nice tecnique, im trying to tap it gren/red/yellow with left and blue/orange with right

[ibestevo]

me too ! im just failing horribly at it..

[svennenett]

lol, its hard to see your hands this time to xP

[Theherokai]

Geez

[zTcIIfol3y]

carpal tunnel?!?! :P

[gaagagas]

wtf?! how is he strumming??

[joedaddy888]

elbow

[graysongman]

all of the notes are hammer ons meaning they can be played without strumming, as long as you hit the note before that

[taccun]

for sum reason i cant hit the green notes at the same time as the rest of the notes

[McPhan86]

when you play the other notes, make sure you dont hold it down at all. because if you hold it for long at all, the next green note will be missed out. really quick fingers needed!

[happyveliz]

or just hold the green buttonbecause that how it works...

[McPhan86]

thats what im saying, if your holding green down, but then you play red and hold it for too long, the next green is missed out...

yeah...i see n
