Guitar Hero 3 should be coming out in November more or less the same time as Rock Band game. Rock Band, if you guys havent heard of it, is basically Guitar Hero (even made by the same company) but with the whole band, Guitar, Bass, Drums and singer. I saw a video of Guitar Hero 3 and the new UI looks good, but we'll see. Hehe.

I was mad though, cuz I saw a website that was listing Rock the 80s with a release of June 15th!

In case anyone is interested. Best Buy is doing pre-orders for 80's and you get a GH80's wristband for putting $5 down.

Oooo A wristband!

Im still deciding if I should buy GH2 for 360.

I already have 1 and 2 for PS2 and I even have a GH2 Dream Theater Edition.

I still liked the song list from GH1 better than 2.

They have downloadable packs on the 360 version from part 1.

Problem is they are sold in sets of 3 for $6.25 each.

There's 3 sets total. It's a rip off. More than $2 a song!

I tend to be against all things Guitar Hero/Rock Band related. Its an alright game I guess, but I'm a Bemani fan at heart and I get very irratated with the amount of people praising it as some sort of innovative game. I saw a overview of features in Rock Band and someone said "Apparently the drums are insane, you can actually play with real sticks!!!" Drummania has been around for close to a decade now, it uses sticks too.

Mostly what bothers me I guess is I know when I try to show my friends a game like Drummania or Guitar Freaks, they will almost always pass it off as some rip off of their Guitar Hero.

I heard that on harder modes of the drum portion of rock band, it would be as if you were playing the real drums and could replace the kit with real drums or something. But the drum controller at the moment only has 4 panels, meaning a lack of hi-hat. I also read that only the leftmost one was fixed as the snare while the rest would switch around.

I dunno, it's probably elitist of me to claim that my game is better since its been around longer... meh. Neutral

Wertle, I definitely understand your frustration.
But what you have to ask yourself is this...

Did all of the Bemani games come out over here?
I know you have access to them, but most of us didn't and still don't..

There is nothing innovative about GH or Rock Band. What IS getting people on board is the music they offer for the game. Most of the other music games have one or two songs that people really enjoy. I know that's kinda how I felt about Taiko Drum Master. I still love the game, but I'm not interested in playing drums to an anime song. Which is what most of it was with a few exceptions.

Rock Band will give me the satisfaction of songs that I know and love. However, I know it's not innovate. The only thing about it that IS innovative is the fact you can have online play, but that's the norm now a days.

Trust me, I remember the days of the original Beatmania on PS1!
The one that had a Turntable/keyboard included.

Sure, GH and RB are not original, but they are fun, none the less.
