I like the GH guitar better, but I've heard the Rockband Drums are Better.
I personally like GH better. :)

If you are playing single player then get GTar Hero 3 or 2 (not 4) if you are playing with a party then get Rock Band which is far supiorior then GTar 4 for Party.

Ah, good point. This would definitely be more for party-type. I'd probably do the single-player anyway, just to unlock songs, but I enjoy playing with people a lot more.

I've only played guitar and bass on guitar hero, so I'm not sure.

But Rock band is GREAT! The drums are awesome, and so is the singing.

I would also say Rock Band although I haven't played either much.  I just don't like the track list on either, we need some Christian songs.

I like "Rock Band 2" more than the others at the moment, but Guitar Hero 2 & 3 are good for single player as well.

I actually like Guitar Hero World Tour more than Rock Band, but only a little. I haven't played Rock Band 2 so I can't comment on that.

If Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock was available with Drums/Microphone then I would recommend that over everything else but it isn't.

get guitar hero 4
don't pay attention to anybody who says GH3 cause it has a Marylin Manson song and i don't think God would want ya to listen to that guy's music.
but that can only be downloadable.
any guitar hero game that doesn't have MM in it should be fine.
but i prefer GH4 cause you can have guitar battles and have a party setting

Rock Band 2 is a lot more fun than rock band 1 because there  was an increase in difficulty in songs and there are a ton of songs you can download as well as being able to import all of rock band 1 songs(except 3) for $5.

Yeah, you can actually go online and kind of like itunes buy tons of different songs for rock band, and then play them. So that's one HUGE advantage, being able to play your own personal fav songs. That's pretty awesome.  8)

You can do this in both. But imo RB has more calmer songs made for party's compared to GH's more "wilder" songs but note that this is only from experience with RB 1 & 2 and GH 3 not 4.

GH4 is the better game by far, but RB is way easier so if you're just going for a party game then get RB.
I am not talking about T2 unless I am explicitly talking about T2. Also Mayhem is fine now somehow!

I don't personally own GHWT yet, but when I do I'm getting all the peripherals.

lol yea RB1 isn't as hard as GH3 or GH4 but RB2 on expert is pretty hard, assuming of course your playing the harder songs and not the warmup ones or something.

GH4 Expert (on a song that's not uber easy)=nigh impossible!
