Line 1:
{{
* [[Base Breaker]]: Marc replacing ZP is already causing signs of this to appear despite not even having been properly heard yet.
* [[Covered Up]]: "Strike of the Ninja", on ''Ultra Beatdown'', is a cover of a song originally recorded in 2000 by Shadow Warriors, a Theart/Totman gag band (heavy metal ninjas).
Line 7:
* [[Face of the Band]]: Herman Li. An unusual case given that he is neither the lead singer nor the main songwriter. Even so, he's the most well known member of the band due to his over-the-top guitar solos and his unique look.
* [[Fan Dumb]]: Their fans treat them like the second coming, leading us right into the [[Hate Dumb]].
* [[Germans Love David Hasselhoff]]: Like many [[Power Metal]] bands, DragonForce is big in Japan.
* [[Internet Backdraft]]: There must be some internet rule that every [[YouTube]] video of a power metal band must have more comments attacking [[Dragon Force (video game)]] than talking about the band in the actual video.
* [[It's Popular, Now It Sucks]]: Seemingly averted at first when "Through the Fire and Flames" was announced for Guitar Hero III with fans celebrating its inclusion, then [[It Got Worse|the game was released
** The band's first three albums received generally positive reviews from the power metal community, and the band was believed to have a bright future. The Guitar Hero spotlight changed all that. Oops.
*** If you only know TTFAF, or found them through Guitar Hero, [[Berserk Button|do]] ''[[Berserk Button|not]]'' mention that to a long-time fan.
* [[Memetic Badass]]: Herman Li.
* [[Memetic Mutation]]: The solo from [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5i7qZxICwgQ "Fury of the Storm"] is part of [http://takeshikaga.ytmnd.com/ this] ancient YTMND meme about [[What Do You Mean It's Not Awesome?|The Iron Chef eating the
** [[
* [[Ruined FOREVER]]: According to the cries of those who believe no singer could ever hope to fill ZP's <s>leather pants</s> shoes.
* [[That One Boss]]: "Through the Fire and Flames", the [[Bonus Boss]] of ''[[Guitar Hero]] 3'', is widely considered to be the most difficult song in <s>the series</s> ''any '' <s> guitar</s> '''''rhythm game''''' ''ever''. [[I Don't Know Mortal Kombat|No member of the band has beaten it on "Hard" difficulty.]]
** There's also a DLC pack consisting of three additional DragonForce songs ("Operation Ground and Pound", "Revolution Deathsquad", and "Heroes of Our Time"), which are sure to elicit all manner of [[Cluster F-Bomb|delighted exclamations]] from determined ''[[Guitar Hero]]'' fans everywhere.
** And now, with the inclusion of "Fury of the Storm" in ''[[Guitar Hero]]: Warriors of Rock'', there will no doubt be many more smashed plastic guitars.
** [[Serial Escalation]]: If you think that's bad, add drums, vocals, and bass (if it's even really bass!) in ''[[Guitar Hero]]: Smash Hits''. Wonder how many controllers will be trashed?
*** Actually, "Through the Fire and Flames" is meant to be ''easier'' in ''Smash Hits''.
**** Plus the bass track for "Through the Fire and Flames" in ''Smash Hits'' is actually really easy to get through. The guitarist and the drummer might be having a hard time, but the bassist is pretty set as long as he can double-strum the controller.
