Hey guys,
I thought id start this out by asking the best question for anyone who owns guitar hero 3.
Have you guys beaten through the fire and flames? if so on what difficulty and how much
did you have to practice.. yeah.

There's no way I'll be able to beat it on expert.

Yea I've beaten it on expert, it took me a long time to finally get past the intro and once i did I passed the rest pretty easily, 4*ed it too doubt I'll ever get the 5*

I beat it on Medium.  I don't think I've even tried it on hard yet.

yes i beat it on hard took me about 8 tries. the intro on expert is a bitch.

are you kidding, in the middle of the song when hes like wooahhh woahh woahh.. the like 3 minute solo is pretty damn hard.

Beat in on medium. That's all I can handle for that song.

The intro is easily the hardest part of the song... the solos are ridiculous too but at that point I would be all the way in the green and probably have star power so it would be easy to pass, not keep a multiplier though

"Beat in on medium. That's all I can handle for that song."

I can beat it on hard. I tried once on expert and I don't think i got past 3% of it.

Beat it on expert, my max is 406k atm (4 stars) but I'm sure I can do better, it took me around 5 months of practicing the intro once in a while to do it but now I can do it consistantly 1hand or with tapping.

I have beaten it on expert. Took about a week of straight practice learning to tap the intro.

I'm stuck on 4 stars (537k) if only I could strum worth anything I could get 5 stars. (Always break combo several times in post insanity, grinding scales, and rampaging dragons)

Just beat it on expert a couple days ago. I probably spent a couple months practicing the intro, but I'd spend about 20 minutes on it once every couple weeks or so. I didn't get a 4* but I'll at least be able to get that. There's no way I'll ever 5* the song, unless I somehow get much much better.

On Expert, I have gotten 98% through it.  (I know, I lost on "You Rock!"...I forgot to practice tapping the end.  >_<)  Since then, I've been going down at 83%-ish.  I should take some time to get a little more consistent, but when I got the game in March, I never would have even imagined being able to do the intro.  I'm rather proud of myself.  :P

Edit!  Beat it last night.  ^_^

I can smoke it on Hard, however if you can beat it on Expert you're a freakin mutant.

I've almost full comboed it on medium, but I've had very little success learning to tap the intro on expert so have yet to get anywhere there. I don't remember ever even trying it on hard, but I don't think I'd have any trouble passing (now keeping combo is another story).

On easy or medium...hard is to hard for me

Medium
Sketchy on Hard

Just got 5* on TTFAF with 571k! Go me!

Are you kidding! That song's a cakewalk! I got 100% on my first try!

I mean, I'm a total rock star baby. Nothing can stop me...

...on easy difficulty. :|

On medium.

I've beaten it on medium, tried hard (failed), tried expert (failed misearably)

beat it on expert 96% ,if the guitars were actually a big more truely accurate I could get 100% no doubt,since I can do that on a real guitar >.<

i'll never get any better than that on it though,i don't own the game,played it at a friends before,asked me to help him try to get through it.

beat it on hard, expert just takes the piss. The problem with Guitar Hero 3 is that they add in two guitar parts at one time, which is why its typically so damn hard, also you can't do what the guitarist that play the songs do (I forget the name of the actual technique but essentially the solos are arpeggios played really really fucking quickly using a slightly different strumming technique) and to master that would make me forget how to play the actual guitar properly.

I'm having trouble with the last fret, so Hard is kicking my ass on everything.

I beat it on Hard (easy), EX (cake), Medium (er... kinda tricky) and Easy (HOLY WHAT IS THIS CRAP 1000 NOTES ZOMG)

:P

I beaten it on hard. Not the easiest thing I've ever done

I beat it on Medium.  I suck at Guitar Hero.

I never tried cause there is no point in me even trying; It's way beyond me. 

Yes - on medium. :P

on easy...lol

I'd rather stick my fingers in a blender than try to beat that song on Hard or Expert. I managed to beat it on Easy and Medium--barely.

Yeah on easy lol, that song is so hard.

I tried it some obscene amount of times, before I finally beat it on Expert.

There's one patch in the solo where you need to activate star power at exactly the right moment so it carries you through the crazy part but doesn't overwrite the next phrase. It's really tricky, and I haven't replicated it since.

I really hope they use the Rock Band earn-while-you-burn thing in World Tour, so I never have to worry about that again.

Yes.

Yes I have.

Very very satisfying song to complete!! I've only done it once, and I'm not really bothered going back to it ever again...

Beat it on Hard the first time I tried it.

Beat it on medium. This, Raining Blood and Devil Went Down To Georgia are the only songs I can't beat on Hard.

Beat it on hard... 3 measly stars...   I would love to be able to beat it on expert and also get the achievement for 3 star power activations but I can't even get passed the intro.. I need to learn how to tap.. or do the rubber band HAX

No, i haven't beaten TTFATF cause its so HARD! And i like playing the other songs way more!

On medium, I never even thought for a seccond I should waste valuable hours practicing on hard untill I could get it.

Only on easy. I suck at GH.

i finally got consistent on this song so now I can pass it without star power almost every time. Can't strum atall though so still stuck on 430k... and I don't like that song atall so I'm not going to practice it. It's kindof fun though, mostly because it's really tough. Once in a while I go back to GH3 to play devil went down to georgia and this just so my hand starts to move as fast as it can (don't know why it helps.... but it does. I always use it to get up to speed after not playing for a while).

Medium? Yes. Anything higher? No fucking way.

I beat it on medium.  I am special.
