If you have a PS3 or Xbox360, you have the option of playing RB with the GH guitar and I would recommend it. I love music/band games and it never hurts to have more songs and games to play.Maybe try it before you buy it and see what you think. I love the game and still play it regularly. It doesn't help that many of Rock Band's songs on hard have large sections of fast strumming. It makes the game unfun for me. And believe me, it doesn't have anything to do with the game, it has everything to do with this guitar. But I can't believe how much more I prefer the Guitar Hero guitar to this.
This is due almost completely to the Rock Band guitar. And because of that, I'll be selling RB, not getting RB2, and playing GH, and GHWT as much as possible. I started playing music games with Guitar Hero III for the Wii. Perhaps I'm biased by having "honed" my game skills on the Guitar Hero guitar, but I just prefer it soooo much to this guitar. But I can't say they're my favorite either.The guitar looks great, and feels pretty good. So I picked up Rock Band for the Wii not long ago thinking it couldn't be much different.I'll say that had I purchased Rock Band first, I may not still be playing music games. Us Wii owners don't have that option though. As opposed to Guitar Hero's whichs clicks when you strum, giving some tactile feedback that you did indeed strum.
Playing the same song in both games, I do not have fun with the RB guitar and yet want to play the song again and again with the GH guitar. The buttons are okay, and better than the strum bar. The Rock Band guitar's strum bar is so spongy/mushy, that it's hard to tell if your strum has been registered. It's more appropriately sized than the Guitar Hero guitar and has some heft to it to make it seem more lifelike. Strange, I know, but there it is.I wanted to like it.I really did.
Play it. Rock band is the ultimate party game. Love it. Great variety of songs from every genre. If you don't have rythm, you can sing, and if you are a musical person, you can tackle either the drums or guitar with the otion of playing bass as well. And it's so open to everyone. Get it. MUST OWN.
Its basically the same as the guitar included in the original Rock Band set which is good for the most part. I was hoping it would include a bass head, but that's my only real complaint. Finally four of us can play Rock Band on my Wii
Rock band is really fun, my friends and i play for hours and hours, but the guitars and drums are really low quality. the plastic drum pedal snapped after only a week, the first guitar i got just plain stopped working after about 20 minutes of gameplay, and the whammy bar on the second guitar broke after just a few weeks.i'm sure the equipment would be just fine under a gentle touch, but a game called rock band should be prepared for something a little more intense. EA games will replace any broken equipment, but you have to wait for them to send you a box, then wait for your broken equipment to get to them, then wait for them to send you a new one, meanwhile you only have half a game.I don't know what anyone can do about it though, just be aware that the stuff is fragile, and try not to let it ruin a great game.
I love Rock band and Guitar hero. This guitar is much better in my opinion than the guitar hero guitar. It is also cheaper by 20 dollars.
