Re: Guitar hero VS Rock Band

I would take Rock Band. I think the solos are more in-depth than Guitar Hero's

Re: Guitar hero VS Rock Band

guitar hero world tour is fail, its hard to read the drumset, rhythms, screen, setting etc. the way the singing is done is also pretty fail, you basically have to slur the entire thing, and even then its just hard to read the lyrics and its just annoying to read the blue bar in the first place.

Re: Guitar hero VS Rock Band

Well i really like GH but then i rented RB 2 and now its kind of hard for me to chose, but im going to go with GH for now

Re: Guitar hero VS Rock Band

I chose GH. The guitar is much better. I actually know the songs (granted I don't know very many songs, I'm just a gamer). The notes are circles and not rectangles. GH came out first and Rock Band thought it was a good idea, so they copied.

Rock Band used the whole band first and Guitar Hero thought it was a good idea, so they copied.

Harmonix invented all the GH games until they sold it to Activision (GH3) SO basically rock band came first :X

I originally thought all of these things were true (except the last one) until I played Rock Band.

The GH guitar is much worse. It has the sturdiness, but the RB guitar has softer inset buttons and a solo set. This is one thing Activision copied with the slider bar (that is complete trash--it doesn't work at all) My hand hurt after playing Guitar Hero for a while--I never had this problem with the Rock Band guitar.

The songs in the GH franchise have been becoming emo-licious. The Rock Band songs are still the standard mix of old awesome songs and new decent songs. If you don't know the old songs, it's because you don't listen to classic rock.

I also found that I prefer the rectangle notes. I don't like the hammer-on notes in either game but I've gotten used to the Rock Band ones.

Harmonix, the people who made Rock Band, also made Guitar Hero. They made the first two games. Activision, their publisher, had a squabble with them over the full band game that Harmonix wanted to make, and they separated. Activision still had the rights to the franchise, so they hired an internal development team to continue to create new Guitar Hero games.

I think this is a meaningless poll since Guitar Hero has been on a steady decline for years now and Rock Band continues to impress. World Tour was an epic failure (despite high sales) and was a huge turn-off for many fans (myself included).
