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.

The Guardian · « **Reply #3 on:** January 05, 2009, 07:01:22 PM »

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.

Rockband all the way! and bring it to MN states

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.

Isildur · « **Reply #11 on:** January 07, 2009, 06:33:59 PM »

Is that an import from the game or an xbl download?

lightningninja · « **Reply #12 on:** January 07, 2009, 07:01:17 PM »

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.

Is downloadable songs only for RB or can you do that for GH too?

lightningninja · « **Reply #14 on:** January 07, 2009, 08:04:17 PM »

I'm not sure, but definitly for Rock Band.

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.

...

meh, I guess it depends on the party.

lol sorry I ment difficult so you wont be playing like through the Fire and Flames with some people who hardly ever play Rock Band, maybe not "calmer" though

Minister Polarius · « **Reply #18 on:** January 13, 2009, 07:44:45 PM »

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.

New Raven BR · « **Reply #19 on:** January 13, 2009, 11:08:16 PM »

ya have drums,guitar or mic for gh4, pol?

Warrior_Monk · « **Reply #20 on:** January 16, 2009, 04:26:54 PM »

GHWT is awesome. though, I've yet to play RB.

Minister Polarius · « **Reply #21 on:** January 16, 2009, 05:48:09 PM »

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

Warrior_Monk · « **Reply #22 on:** January 17, 2009, 10:20:27 PM »

my friend, who owns rock band, just tried GHWT... he failed miserably. RB Expert=GH Hard

redemption99 · « **Reply #23 on:** January 18, 2009, 11:05:17 AM »

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!
