I figured out if I talk slower, the Kinect can understand me better.

I just got a big achievement last night.... play 10 songs, which means you have to get above 100% on 10 different songs. Yeah, sounds weird being able to get over 100% on a song. But you get bonuses for playing sections in master mode (from memory).

It happened Saturday night with Breed (Nirvana). I think the only new song I have gotten over 100% on was Everlong. The others were from RS1 or DLC.... I am close on Man In the Box (about 98%).... which will be the hardest song I ever master... since it has a decent solo that last about 40 seconds.


Since I achieved my goal last night of 10 songs I didn't have anything else to shoot for so I was just randomly playing songs and doing finger exercises (yes they exist and hurt).

So I started to try and learn all the notes on the fret-board.. something I have been delaying for far too long. I can now find all the A(s).

Has anyone here tried Bandfuse yet? Saw that amazon and a couple of other places have it on sale for 39.99. I bought Rocksmith 2014 last year when it was on sale but haven't even opened it yet and have read some user reviews that say Bandfuse is a better teaching game so I was just wondering if I may be better off trying it or give Rocksmith another try, I did get frustrated with the original Rocksmith and gave up on it.

I hit that one too via a combination of guitar and bass:

Guitar - Next Girl (RS1), Satisfaction (RS1), Where is My Mind (RS1), Mind Eraser (DLC), Tighten Up (DLC), High and Dry (RS1), almost there with My Generation for RS2 songs (98.7%)

Bass - Where Is My Mind (RS1), Next Girl (RS1), Tighten Up (DLC), Pour Some Sugar On Me (RS2), I Miss You (RS1), almost there for Love That's Gone on RS2

There are a couple of bonus arrangements hidden in there that hit 100% as well.

Haven't spent much time with the bass content in RS2, but I swear the bass tracks are way easy compared to guitar. So much easier to get 90%+ on the first play.

Game might be in the bargain bins before too long.

Posted on their Facebook page last week:
Hi All -

We are very sad to report that due to events beyond our control, Realta has had to temporarily suspended its US operations. The game and current DLC will continue to be available for now, and as we sort out the next steps for the company, we will keep you posted regarding the long-term future of BandFuse. We truly appreciate every one of our supporters! Keep playing the game, posting amazing videos, stay tuned for updates and most importantly, rock on!

The BandFuse Team
