I now know that the Rock Band series is better than Guitar Hero: World Tour. After playing some GH:WT...here are my observations/complaints (mostly about drums because that's my instrument of choice...and I'm an amateur drummer on the side):


  • What is up with all of the non-English language songs??!? "Antisocial" when covered by Anthrax was a pretty good song, but the original by Trust?!? In FRENCH?!? what the heck? What about the songs in Spanish where I would guess a majority of the people playing the game have never even heard of?!?
  • The drums are a little harder on Expert in my opinion, but maybe it's because I don't know HARDLY ANY of the songs. Is that my fault? But I also think it's because of some of the ridiculous stuff that the programmers have done. There are some songs where you are either playing notes on the drums that don't really exist in the song (at least I can't hear 'em), OR the opposite happens where stuff is going on in the song but you are not playing it!
  • This one's not a gameplay issue, but it's just something I noticed. Rock Band's animated band members (in the background) actually look like they are playing and hitting every note, whether it's guitar or drums. But, in GH:WT it looks more like a music video on MTV or VH1...there's no synchronization.

I haven't finished a career yet so maybe I'll change my mind. But right now, its Rock Band FTW!


What's your opinion??

I definitely like the playability of RB vs GH:WT...plus the instruments, for the most part, are better quality. The drums for GH:WT broke at my friends house after 2 days...lame.
