reserve spot, keep in this board
damn it i already bought the rock band instruments i dont really wanna buy the guitar hero instruments
also i hope better songs are announced...
Better songs please
Updated, added pictures for Guitar Hero
Oh god Rock Band 2 has One Step Closer and Testify
GH.
I'm going with GH because I can't really afford to get a system other than the Wii. I've refused to buy Rock Band Wii thus far because of the lack of downloadable content.
But the new GH seems attractive to me. And on top of that, songs look like they're gonna be better.
DO WANT "One step closer", but I gotta get the Wii game. This GH actually has downloadable content for the Wii which is very encouraging. Plus I stay true to my series.
rock band because i hate guitar hero
I am sad that I don't get to sing Pinball Wizard though. :(

There are alot of things Harmonix did to make the Wii version inferior and shitty compared to the other ones, such as a lack of online capabilities period, nor any character customization.

Guitar Hero looks better feature wise, and the guitar hero controllers and interface feel a lot nicer than the rock band ones to me, but rock band 2 has a much much better track list so far.
And the Guitar Hero drumset is a lot lot lot nicer

They also have like 3x the amount of songs announcesd, who knows what the final GH track list will look like.
Quote from: steal on July 06, 2008, 05:25:47 PM
That's true, but it doesn't get much better than Dream Theater and Megadeth.
Jimi Hendrix, The Doors, The Smashing Pumpkins, Tool are all supposed to be on GH:WT
Quote from: steal on July 06, 2008, 05:54:31 PM
hmmm, sounds awesome. DAMMIT I DON'T KNOW WHICH GAME I WANT :'(
I suggest you get a friend to buy one, and you buy the other. GH:WT will probably be more fun

That is the greatest reason to buy GT:WT over rock band.

Hopefully, but really unlikely, I could play your songs.
I'm going to get the 360 version so yeah.
I'm still going to get both. But If I had to choose one it would be Rock Band 2. It just sucks now because I have to buy another drum set for Guitar hero: World Tour. Why do they even call it Guitar hero if it involves the whole damn band?

I don't know how many times this has been brought up on /v/ or any other place video game discussion is allowed, but the bottom line is:
Guitar Hero is a franchise. Since the name is licensed, I doubt that they will toss out the brand name now, Guitar Hero is a household name now, ya dig? If Bounty changed it's name to "Special Tough Towel Paper" no one would recognize it. It's the same deal with Guitar Hero, so as nto to confuse current owners of any "Guitar Hero" products.

Yep.
I barely know any of the songs in Rock Band 2... GH I know more songs at least, even if I don't like all of them.
AND WHERE IS THE CLASH
I certainly like Rock Band 2's song list far more. But I don't care either way, they can't possibly improve on anything and it'll be just like the new "DANCE DANCE REVOLUTION 38: SUPER KAWAII DESU NE EDITION ^_^".
Quote from: Thief888 on July 05, 2008, 07:59:32 PM
Why are both symbols different colors in Guitar Hero?
I mean, they make the same noise in real life, why does it matter which one you hit? They probably just did it so you would have to buy their drum kit if you wanted to play drums.
No. You can get several types of cymbals that all sound unique.
