I don't know if Dr0idWaker is on here, but he is lefty and he's legit 4th 5th or 6th on the 360 leaderboard. |

*confused* Wouldn't 10-15% mean that there should be one in the top 6-10? |
I'm left handed for everything except GH... maybe others? |
same here, also real guitar.
but i can play hard on lefty, all though i suk.
thats why i dont play it in front of my friends. _________________

Yeah, I think most lefties who pick up GH just learn to play right-handed. The only main exception I can think would be lefties who already play real guitar and have learned left-handed, I guess they'd stick to playing GH left-handed too.
Funny thing: when I air guitar, I do it left-handed. But I play GH right-handed, what's up with that? :P |

isnt that really annoying? i believe its causing me to not be able to whammy enough to get 7 stars on xstream on hard and get 64/64 7 stars.
maybe red octane should come out with a lefty guitar hero guitar |

Yep, I'd have learned left-handed if it wasn't for the whammy bar (and the strap, but they've fixed that for GH3) but it just doesn't feel right.
Consequently, fast-strumming songs kill me because my right arm is weak :P |

I think the whammy bar would be easier to use with lefty flip. It would never fall away or anything. Always easy to grab. I play weird though. I'd have my whole hand over the thing. Maybe I should relearn lefty. |

I play with my thumb on the strum bar and my fingers over the whammy, so I don't have problems with it falling away or anything (besides, my guitar is pretty tight, it doesn't move around all the time like I've seen on other guitars) but if I played lefty I guess I'd have to have my palm over the whammy or something.. *shrug* |

Yeah I would agree that it is dr0idwaker, his placing on the leaderboards would make him in the top 50 on ps2. And 0ldman, how the fuck are you so god damn good at geometry wars? what is the secret? _________________

ollolol, In retro you mean? Yeah, after a while, if you get good enough to break a million, then 5 million, the game never gets harder. Pretty much everyone with 10mil+ stopped their game because they were bored. I pushed through the bordem for 5 days and 35-40 hours to get 200,000,000. Hitting that score exactly was almost all luck though.
If you want someone who is really good, talk to BillyBlaze314. I've seen him posting here and he is way better than I ever was. |
