Ahh Bladder of Steel...one of my favorite and most memorable achievements. I'll never forget; I went for it on the first day of Christmas break in 11th grade, 2009. I did Expert guitar and managed to do it first try! Only came close to failing maybe 1 time. My biggest roadblock was actually...well, not being able to hold my piss; maybe 20-25 minutes from the end of my run, I just couldn't hold it any longer, so I ended up guesstimating when the song Battery was about to start (I knew it had a long intro with not too many notes - giving me a lot of wiggle room) and ran out onto my porch to pee 🤣 (I lived in a rural area so I was able to easily get away with this lol) I guess I don't technically deserve the title of "Bladder of Steel" but hey, I got every Endless Setlist-related achievement in 1 run along with a timeless story to tell lol
@ffibonacci5 ай бұрын
This was 100% the most harrowing trophy I'd ever gotten. Completed it back in high school on expert guitar, and I recall one point where I had to do a speed run piss right when a song ended & managed to get back right when the notes appeared for the next song's chart. Good times

Still finished the set, although I came dangerously close to failing Painkiller during one of the solos.

I actually streamed a playthrough of the endless setlist on expert drums a few years back. Took me about roughly 10 hours in total, and I spent over an hour on the last five songs alone since I had severely underestimated the difficulty of Shoulder to the Plow after 7 hours of continuous drumming. I managed to clutch the rest of the setlist out after a break though. My right arm was dead for the entirety of the next day...

Discovered your channel fairly recently and just went through just about all of your videos. Great work! I'm excited to see what games you decide to get the achievements for, next! Since you're mostly focusing on classic 360 games, might I suggest Dead Rising? There's an excellent guide by Recommended Playing if you decide to go for the task of 100% achievements for that game or its sequel. It's tough to find games from that era that don't also have now-impossible multiplayer achievements, sadly.

I played this game so much in my youth, platinum my whole band, although I needed help to get the guitar and drum platinum. Peace Sells (But who's Buyin') back then I couldn't beat solo on drums and of course Visions on Guitar. Bass and vocals were a breeze, and I find it easier to beat the endless setlist on vocals, as you can sing in your own voice (just match the pitch.) I'd say in my lifetime I have completed the endless setlist 8 or so times, 2 times for Steel Bladder achievement, one for me and another for a friend online. Crazily enough, I too had issues the first time trying the achievement, one is with my dog who was running around and bumped my 360. She costed me the achievement 63 songs in, and $60 extra, to purchase a new CD. Power outage stopped another run halfway in, and my own incompetence by dropping my drumstick near the end of Panic Attack, I wasn't able to recover and failed near the last note. (Didn't try the achievement for another month after that mistake.) 😅

Another perk of the endless setlist playlist is plated icons when you play online (silver for medium, gold for expert, platinum for expert), so by brother and I played through it twice so we could get it on all instruments. We would play until we got too tired, leave the console on overnight, and finish it in the morning. good times

If you think that achievement was a nightmare to get, wait until you get to the LEGO Rock Band achievement “The Final Countdown” where you have to 100% the guitar solo on the song “The Final Countdown” on Expert Guitar only, and it has to be in a regular run too. Kept trying to practice the solo and it is a nightmare to get because the guitar and bass engine on that game is busted a bit, and I could not get it. I could literally tell you it might give you the same crushed feeling too as I did.

Did this twice (I was on vocals both times :)) once alone once with a full band. If you’re doing bladder of steel and your bathroom is close to your real room vox is the move for sure. Songs like the trees and let there be rock have long breaks to get drinks or use the restroom

I did this on bass back in the day. I was so close to failing both Visions and Panic Attack not because the songs were difficult (they were) but because I was really tired and so was my arm.

My dad and I tried this together back in the day, him on vocals and me on guitar, both on Expert. We had planned this ahead of time with me using the wired RB1 guitar and him having a controller plugged in and using a headset instead of a regular mic. He used the headset so he could run to the bathroom if he needed to and still have a mic handy. I, on the other hand, had to sit there and take it. Anyway, trouble started brewing during Livin on a Prayer when our dog was pacing back and forth across the living room. Remember, we're both using wired controllers, so the inevitable happened, dog disconnected one of us. This pissed my dad off so much that he put her outside. From this point, we had already set aside the entire day for this, so we pressed on. As it turns out, during Visions, which was song #81 or 82, my wired controller decided to pretend to disconnect even though it was still plugged in. And if that wasn't enough, my dad made it so we actually failed Painkiller. So in the long run, our dog did us a favor. To this day, I still don't have this achievement, and it's one of two from this game that I'm missing.

Around 4 hours into the challenge, it was 2 or 3am and my Grandpa told me to go to bed. I remember leaving my Xbox on pause just hoping it wouldnt crash overnight. I woke up around 8am and finished the rest.

I went to the bathroom, turned off the phone, put fresh batteries in the controller, put on the headphones and went to town. By the time I was finishing up I was a WRECK, but I did it. I think I started around 5 in the morning and finished by noon or even later. Delirious, elated, it was the most surreal and wonderful gaming moment in my life (even just at Medium lol).

I did it with two of my Friends, it was a horrible Grind, because the Game took our Downloaded Songs too and We had a nearly every Skull Difficulty Song for Guitar and Drums from the Shop at the Time, we nearly failed at the End within the last 10 Songs and when "Caprici di Diablo" from Yngwie Malmsteem came up ... We didnt saw it on the List ... But we made it ^^

I'm in the process of getting all of the single player gh3 achievements, but playing through the campaign 10+ times can really be a slog. Definitely want to get bladder of steel on expert guitar sometime in the future though.

Today I was bankrupted, left by my wife and I found out that I was adopted. Was an excellent day though, as JForJack uploaded a video playing my second favourite guitar simulator.

Anyone attempting this achievement make sure you have a good chair with neck support. When I obtained this achievement 3 years ago I did it while sat on an old stool that had no back or neck support for 6 and a half hours. Let’s just say the next day I couldn’t move… Don’t be like me! Take care of your entire body not just your wrists and your bladder!

WHAT?! Randomly triggering the guide button in this guitar model is not an issue only with my unit? That's terrible and made it impossible to be played with. Good to know tho, cuz I still have mine and instead of keep on trying to fix this problem I'll upgrade it to a Clone Hero guitar (probably with the Arduino mod). Thank you for this great video.

Wow you're pretty good. I've got the endless setlist on expert with guitar bass and drums stock RB drums as well which was a nightmare. I also did it co-op with my bud on vocals That was a long. Long time ago. Since i did it on the Wii i got no award. I did it purely for the knowledge i could.

I attempted this year's ago, and my controller disconnected for literally 5secs and at the time I didn't know that ruined the attempt... Haven't done it ever since, life etc.
@Darkshock254 ай бұрын
You can still schedule another day as a day off to attempt it again, make sure the controller’s wired so it won’t disconnect at all during the setlist without pausing or worrying about failing. It’s not too late to try again. If life is getting in your way, then finish it or let someone do the work for you for 6 hours to get another chance to attempt it again. 😉
