Guitar Hero II Cheats & Tips

At the main menu, quickly press Yellow, Orange, Blue(3), Orange, Yellow. If you entered the code correctly, a message will appear. Repeat this code to disable its effect.

thats it.

More of a glitch than a cheat really.....


1. From the main menu, enter practice mode

2. Choose the song that you want to perform the glitch with

3. Pick the section that you want to change the pitch of/only have to play that part in career mode

4. Start the section on any speed(its easiest to do this glitch on slowest speed)

5. You know the menu that comes up at the end of the sections that you played, the one that tells your % and notes hit? This is where the glitch comes in, and the most complicated step. play the section on slowest, and figure out exactly when that menu comes up. play the section again, and at the exact time as that menu is supposed to come up, yank the controller out of your 360. Instead of the menu that tells your % and notes hit, the menu that says "YOU ARE ROCKING OUT TOO HARD" will come up. plug the controller back in, and press continue. If the notechart keeps scrolling without stopping, the glitch is active.

6. Play the song in career/quick play for a pass, 5*, or FULL COMBO. You only have to play the parts of the song that you chose in practice mode, so if you pick an easy part, you can easily achieve 100%

The Guitar Hero II Explorer control is obviously not meant to be played left-handed. It's hard enough playing left handed anyway. The easy way to get this award is by turning on Lefty Flip and then play the song while looking at the screen through a mirror. You can also turn on Lefty Flip and play the song upside-down, but that is harder.
