    Unlocking those expensive songs

    I want to unlock Pants and eventually Rottel but I'm still a ways off. What has everyone found the quickest way to be to earn credits? I tried to full combo the classical songs (flight of the bumble bee, caprice, molto, grand gallop ect.) figuring it would be worth a ton of credits but found it to be to difficult to do. Right now I'm just working on full combo-ing standard-difficult songs but find the credits are coming slowly. Any tips other than patience?

    Max Forever... 2,700 notes = 4,000,000 points = insta 40 credits if you get a 1,400 combo or more.

      Just play the hardest songs you can FC a bunch of times.

        Basically anything with a large combo gives you a decent amount of credits.

          Mash EHHS until you miss, then fail. If you can get over a 200 combo each time by doing this, you should really rake in credits quickly. If you can't do this, then just do that fastest song that you can consistently combo, and boo out as soon as you break your combo. Also, boo out if you get over 1,900,000 points, since that's enough for the current maximum of 40 credits.

            basically, just use songs that you can FC and that will get you insta-points.. i think even difficult / standard songs give lots of points for FC. and also you can do what GamerShadow suggested. play Max Forever.. thats if you have it.

              Play Straight to Video over and over and over again.
              902 = full combo

                How many points and credits do you rake in from that each time you play it?

                  I was trying to AAA Secret Zombie Room (secret) for the tourney but failed. I got 11 credits for an okay PA and FC'd everytime. It's a short song, annoying, but short and it give you a good 10-11 credits every run. That's what I'd do.

                  When the game isn't fun for you anymore, take a break. It's not a job, nobody here is professional and getting paid to play and force themselves to constantly improve... it's a game.

                    I found that straight to video was pretty good for credits and I was able to full combo it, and Doug's strategy worked as well, I actually managed to achieve a 401 rank on EHHS, though I'm not sure if that is repeatable. Thanks for the advice.

                      I'll probably break my mash combo around 400 or so, then boo out. This gets me about 600000 points each time, alone with about 12 credits, and is doable in under a minute, and repeat. If I can keep my combo going longer, then I do. I boo out as soon as I break it.

                        An easier song that only gives 17 credits BUT only takes 1.5 minutes is Boss Machine (Sonic 2)

                            Most of the songs mentioned in here won't load for me. They'll get to about 60-80% then stop. I even waited 20 minutes for Boss Machine (sonic 2) and it never moved.... Any suggestions?
