Rock Band is the most awesome music related game i've ever played... in my opinion. There are a lot of people that would argue that it's simply a knock-off of Guitar Hero, and maybe it is, but I like Rock Band much more than the other.
I'm no good when it comes to playing Guitar or bass, and I most definetly lack talent in the drumming department (the foot pedal thing is way beyond me.) But I can sing fairly well.
I've made it to difficult on the singing part in the few times i've played the game. And I actually sing none of that dumb humming stuff. No, I sing the actual words.
Anyway, next week is snowcoming at my school. Which is basically Homecoming, except for Basketball. And their having a Rock Band competition!
So a few friend and I have signed up our own little Rock Band thing and we plan on doing our thing. I can't wait!
Discuss:
Rock Band
Guitar Hero
What your favorite instrument is on Rock Band
Favorite Rock Band Song
School
Basketball
Snowcoming
And other stuff.

I really wish I could play that more... I'm not really all that great at it.
Getting mildly decent at Guitar Hero, though!

I've seen people play that game, but I don't think I'd be any good at it. :P
I'm fairly decent at Guitar hero, so I'm not sure if I'd be good at the Guitar portion. Maybe..
Drumming looks hard. *Nod nod*
But how would it be a copy? Rock Band has more instruments and stuff, while Guitar Hero focuses on.. the Guitar..

Rock Band. Graah, every time I look at it, I'm filled with raging disgust.
It just seems so... COPIED. It seems like someone was bad at Guitar Hero and got mad at losing at it. Therefore, they made their OWN game to fight back. >___>
Of course, that's only MY opinion.

There is karoake revolutions for singing... just so you know...
Rock band is ok but doesn't take the place of my precious Guitar Hero. I've played every part of Rock band and the only part I found challenging was the drums.... they are so hard D: And I wasn't even doing the pedal (a friend was) D':

I don't have Rock Band yet, though I'm planning on getting it. I have Guitar Hero 2 & 3. I'm not that great at GH, but I still want to play Rock Band. :)

I have not played rock band, and have been wondering what it is like. I own Guitar Hero though, and it's a blast! Except for some reason I learned to play the guitar backwards. I really need to fix that!
So, since I have not played rock band, I cannot compare it to Guitar Hero. Shame my workplace does not have a demo up!

I've seen the previews for it when it first came out, but I've never seen anyone play it so I don't know what it's like. The commercials looked really cool though :)
I have seen Guitar Hero though, and while it looked interesting for the first few minutes, I just kinda lost interest in it after a while.

Rock band I feel is not as great as it could be. My friends brought it, but i feel there is a lot of stuff that could be improved. guitar hero is way better,and personally the singing idea is for those who can't sing, not those who can.

Personally I enjoy rockband much more that guitar hero, both are excelent games but guitar hero lacks the sort of group cohesion that rockband has. Also, yes Rockband is a copy of Guitar hero but if I remember correctly many of the developers from the original guitar hero left and created rock band. So rather than being a blatant copy it's more like guitar hero 2.0 plus other instruments. Besides it's so much more fun trying to master four instruments instead of just one!

The interesting thing with it being a group thing is really nice, but the wait is not as much fun. Also I normally just watch the game, I wish I played drums, but they don't feel like helping me get up to their level, they just are breezing through the songs at times. Also it is a case of we have one singer, and she isn't that great, so it is a bit odd to watch.
Also I don't mind the rip off really, it is nice that it is similar.

My cousin has Rock Band :) I play it at his house like every time i'm over. It took me a LONG time to get used to the drums, but now I can play on hard n.n I never tried the singing though.
And as for Guitar Hero, I have that game :) I have two and three, but not one :cry: Three is probably my favorite because I like the songs on three better than two.
I think Guitar Hero and Rock Band are basically the same kind of game. But also different in many ways.
Rock band has lots of other instruments, and lets you play more new rock alternative songs. While Guitar Hero has SOME new rock, but mainly sticks to classic rock.

I'm gonna get the PS3 version of rock band... i dont have a PS3 yet but i have a friend who does and it'll be fun to get my friends together and rock out.
I'm partial to the guitar myself, it all works out though... I like guitar, my friends like drum, bass, and vocals respectively so we're all good. And then it'll only be a matter of time before the behind the music special.

They tried to tempt me once, I figured it was a Guitar Hero ripoff.
Then, everyone else tried to tempt me, so I thought about it.
Then, they put it out for the Wii, which made me REALLY think about it.
Then I looked at the price and I'm not really all that keen on trying it. :)

It's out for the wii but I saw a lot of bad reviews for it. Something about it not being as good as the release for the x-box 360 and Playstation 3. One of the things that was pointed out was that in the other console versions you can buy more music online which is uploaded on a daily bases and wii doesn't have that (even though there is online features).
Another thing is I heard a lot of people say that Guitar Hero is coming out with a "World Tour" and people are going to wait for that one instead of getting rockband. Something about the set going to be better and better songs.
Another thing I heard is that the guitar is diffrent. Rockband is not compadible with the guitar hero guitar even though it was suppose to be. So there are a lot of downfalls.
I personally have yet to try it and was debating if I shoudl or shouldn't since World Tour will come out later which is the same thing just made by the Guitar Hero creators.
Especially since the price is 170.00 for Rockband and if it has all those downfalls well it made me confuse on if I should spend the money.
Anyone here have it for the wii and what do you think of it?
In the end, I think I might just get it just for the fun of it all. After all it won't hurt but then again maybe I should just wait for World Tour.....hm...
...................
If I do wait though maybe Rockband's price will go down and I'll be able to compare the two better. ^_^ I think I might wait.

I'm just waiting around for World Tour of course still. I wonder how long it would take before they come out with it?
Anyways, for reviews I read somewhere that the Guitar Hero version drums will be more better than the Rock Band version. Don't know much about it though and I can't compare since I have neither but hopefully its nice.
Another thing on why its maybe a good idea to wait is that if you already bought Guitar Hero (talking about the wii by the way) for the wii, they you'll be able to get that and use it on the World Tour game.
I'm not sure what the bundle set will be like but whats the set like for Rock Band on the wii?
When you pay that money are you getting a guitar and a drum set for the wii? Or are you getting just the drums and you'll have to buy anything else?
But I did here the 'micro-phone' part comes in that nifty set.
Here's a note about another review. A girl mentioned that most of the songs on Rock Band are guy singers (which makes it harder for a girl to be the singer). I guess i'm not really really surprised since theres more rock songs with guy singers than girls and I know its hard to sing some songs that are sung by guys. (Mainly because they have a different voice level than girls you know? )
But thats new news. ^_^ I just thought I'd make a post.
