Those of you in the UK will no doubt be aware that EGX 2015 took place a little while ago, and the Nintendo Life team was in attendance for all four days running tournaments and live events on the Nintendo UK stand.
While we were there we also got chance to flex our gaming muscles on Activision's Guitar Hero Live, which has now launched in North America and Europe. When we say "we", what we actually mean is that we sent up our in-house musician Ryan Craddock - who has met Miyamoto, lest we forget - on stage to make Nintendo Life look amazing in front of a receptive crowd.
As you can see from the video below Ryan absolutely decimates the song and puts in a totally flawless performance, earning him not only rapturous applause but also the respect of the Guitar Hero Live representative and Fred from NoughtPointFourLIVE who was on-stage at the same time.

looks easier than the previous installments... not having to use your pinky and all...
@CliveWinston From what I heard it's actually more difficult on harder difficulties because you need to switch between two rows (and sometimes use them together).
My copy just arrived, excited to try it out later today!
@CliveWinston @JeffreyG Yeah, the harder difficulties are actually much more tricky than previous games in the series. Changing between the two 'strings' and making chord shapes in faster sections is a real challenge.
@RyanCraddock What level were you playing on?
@morphballer In this video I was playing 'Advanced'. There is an 'Expert' level above that though.
@RyanCraddock @CliveWinston It is actually much harder than it looks. When I first started playing it, it was basically like trying to learn it again. They do some pretty complicated stuff with the two rows of buttons.
hmm... I actually wasn't even aware of this game until recently... used to play all the diff guitar hero games on 360 for hours on end day in and day out, back in the day... bought a PS2 just to play the original and rocks the 80s..stopped playing when my son was born in 2011, couldn't be mashing buttons while he was sleeping just dusted off GH:Metallica for old times sake, is still great fun... long story short you guys have convinced me to buy this...Yoshi's gonna have to wait
