So, in 2 months time, Guitar Hero Triple will be out and in 3 months, Rock Band will debut, and the gaming community will rock their faces off. Being a fan of Guitar Hero 1+2, I, among millions, are looking forward to another rock and roll rhythm game. But, the question isn't are you ready, but which are you shoveling out you dough for? Guitar Hero or Rock Band?
Among my friends, it's split in half, there's the GH fans and the Rock Band fans. Recent heated debates between us have made me bring this question to the Dtoid Mass, "Hackers on Steroids", "Internet Killing Machine" or whatever you kids call yourselves these days.
Now I've taken an unbiased look at both song lists for both games and honestly I want to play Rock Band's songs more, GHIII has several good songs, but Rock Band wins in my mind. (
Rock Band's List and
Guitar Hero III's ) Everyone knows these games are all about the songs and the immersion, so this is number one on the argument list as far as I'm concerned. I'll let you make up which list you make yours.
Further arguments: "Bleh! Rock Band costs too much!!!11," only if you want it too, if you want one instument, the cost is no different, rendering this point null and void. Next, Guitar Hero is tried and true, simple and fun, just a guitar, no mic, drums,
cowbell, etc. Alright, alright. There's a million thing that could be brought to the table. I would like you to come up with some and comment. Flame war ON!
Have any friends that are going to pick up rock band? Or perhaps have friends that are getting Guitar Hero 3? If your friends are mostly getting GH3 I would go with Rock Band, if your friends are going with mostly Rock Band, I would go with Rock Band.
Looks like I'm going with Rock Band on this. Don't get me wrong, Guitar Hero 3 looks incredibly fun but I've got my heart set on Rock Band.
Rock Band has my vote.
GHIII has "Rock 'n roll all night", but Rock band has "Tom sawyer"
GAHHHHH!
I wonder what the limit is for band members in Rock Band...
It would be cool to make a guitar army like in Idiocracy.
