I finished up the first two stages of pwnership of Guitar Hero II last night. Five stars on every song in the Easy career and completion of the Medium career. Whew, those Face-melter songs were beasts, but fun at the same time.
I also tried Surrender on Hard mode, and failed pretty quickly. On a scale of 1-10, I would say that Easy is a 2, Medium is a 4, Hard is a 9, and Expert is an 11. The jump from Medium to Hard is quite pronounced.
Since I'm obviously not up to the task of Hard (without practice), I think my next mission will be getting five stars on every Medium song before progressing.

In a bold move, XLBA released two titles yesterday. The old-school Gyruss was the expected release, but I was surprised to get 3D Ultra Minigolf Adventures as well. I gave them both a spin and passed for different reasons.
Gyruss played like a clunky version of Galaga. Minigolf was not too bad, but it was pretty simplistic, and with only four characters to choose from (as well as the $10 price tag), it just wasn't quite enough value for the money in my book. If it had been $5, I may have taken the plunge. Also, the trial version was horribly short - only three playable holes.

In surprising news, Katamari Damacy will be coming, and I look forward to trying it out.
