0:40 "Through the Fire and Flames" (GH3) FC
9:18 Full Series FC reflection and slideshow (pictures begin at 10:12)
Given that it's perhaps the most iconic Guitar Hero chart of all time, I don't think I need to go into great detail about what makes TtFaF (GH3) hard to FC. Everyone watching this should already know that the highlights are Bridge I (2:39), the big solo (5:21 through 6:52, but really, mostly just the last 30 seconds of it), and the red snake (7:18). Sure, there are a few other parts that may cause the occasional miss, but this chart is ingrained enough into any experienced player's brain that they're barely even worth mentioning when going for the FC.
Considering the chart's legacy, I would have liked to FC it sooner. It took me longer than I would have liked to largely because of mental pressure and my strong tendency to miss the red snake on FC runs. I didn't really plan for it to linger as the final song left for Full Series FC, but I guess it serves as an appropriate conclusion. When people think Guitar Hero, they think of "Through the Fire and Flames" from GH3.
But I would argue that TtFaF isn't even the main point of this video. Instead, this upload is mainly about the Full Series FC. I have been working towards the Guitar Hero Full Series FC ever since I inherited this KZbin channel from my mom and started posting my own scores to ScoreHero. To any console player, FSFC is more than just a cool title. It's the default endgame. It's the goal every ScoreHero forum poster keeps track of. It's a standardized skill-based measurement of progression in the game that's immediately comprehensive and understandable. And honestly, what better metric than "I hit every note in every song" could the series have?
Such a mammoth project as this does require thorough documentation, so naturally, I had to include a Full Series FC slideshow at the end. All my GH scores are on ScoreHero, but I felt that having all 767 pictures here for future reference would be a great way to show the achievement off. Organizing these photographs, some of which are of FCs accomplished over a decade ago, took me longer than expected, but I knew I had to include it. Please bear in mind that because of how old some of these FCs are, some of the pictures are of reFCs. There were a handful of instances where the original picture appears to be lost because of a dead link, or the photograph was low-quality and not worth including, so I decided to make a last-minute runaround of the series to mop up some extras for documentation purposes. Additionally, I have done a lot of these songs multiple times by now, so feel free to peruse ScoreHero for the occasional better score.
I also took this opportunity to provide some reflection and commentary since I failed to say much of anything in the moments following the TtFaF (GH3) FC. I would have extended the hands view for this video, but I pretty much just sat there for a really long time. After how much time and effort went into completing the Full Series FC, I guess I didn't know how to respond to the situation when the time came. I go into more detail about this phenomenon during the speech at the end, since I felt that there was more to say than I was able to during the pivotal moment of finally FCing the song.
As of this upload, I am just 47 vocals FCs short of the One Man Band Full Series FC on Guitar Hero, which is, quite frankly, bonkers. It does not feel real that close to five years have passed since I finished the Rock Band OMBFSFC, and the prospect of having them both done is definitely something I have high hopes for. Apart from that, the only FCs left to get in all of console GH are "The Devil Went Down to Georgia" and 348 DLC songs on vocals. Neither of those grinds appeal very much to me at the moment, but I would have to be very foolish to say they'll never happen. One thing is for certain: I love FCing stuff.

Note:
Since this upload, I have noticed one small error in the FSFC slideshow. While compiling the FC screenshots, I accidentally used the picture for "Our Lips Are Sealed" twice, inadvertently overwriting the "Rock Star" picture. This was a total oversight on my part, and for that, I apologize. I will instead link my "Rock Star" FC here for easy access: i.imgur.com/3Sov81p.jpeg. If you notice any other issues with the slideshow, please leave a comment so I can make an additional amendment.
