Rock Band 2's out.
And it's great.
It's out for the Xbox 360. Just the game, but you can buy the wireless drumset separately at certain Gamestop stores.
Some electronic places aren't selling it until Tuesday for some reason, but hey, whatever. Just know that you should be able to head to your local Wal-Mart and pick it up.

I'm looking forward to it, the songlist has some good songs.
Unfortunately, I don't have a 360, so until I get one, I'll have to stick with GH2 for the PS2.

pft
it would be wierd to play with the guitar.
there are more than one track. one for drums, guitar, bass, vocals, sfx, and other stuff. a normal song would have anywhere from 4-8 of them. you have to switch fast between them and hit the notes like in gh. a guitar would feel awkward in the game.
trust me its like 15646461561 times more fun than gh
gh was inspired from that game anyways.
harmonix developed both games

To be fair, the Rock Band guitars actually look like guitars.

So, Rock Band ONE is coming out next month, late October I believe. They still haven't confirmed an exact date....
Guitar Hero 4 is coming out November the 12th here, next month I'm preordering it. (Money's a little tight atm.) I CAN'T WAIT!!! I'm so stoaked for World Tour's setlist, got a lot of good songs on it.
For the PS2 however, 'cause I simply don't have the money for a 360. The only thing the PS2's missing is the online function, which to me isn't that big a loss considering I don't have the net at home anymore.
ATM I'm using the schools net, thankfully LRR isn't blocked. However if anyone's been wondering where I've been, that's the reason - no net at home = a HELL of a lot less LRR.
When it comes to RB2, I'd be quite happy to buy it...if it were out, or going to come out in this country any time soon. I've seen RB1 (A local EB's has it on display, and I've seen youtube videos) and if the World Tour instruments for the PS2 are backwards compatable for RB1, then I might get it. Otherwise, screw getting 2 drumkits not to mention the $$$.

I haven't fully explored Rock Band 1 yet, but I'll likely be picking up the RB2 disc at some point for the sake of the extra songs and so on.
Then I'll be grabbing the full GH4 kit, because Guitar Hero has always felt a lot nicer to me, both the responsiveness and the instruments, and the drum kit looks better.

I was not able to resist it's temptation. I will be pretty broke for a little while but I will be rockin' quite hard.Sable wrote:I'll be getting Rock Band 2 in a couple of days. I don't know that I'll be able to resist the ION Drumrocker kit...there's a lot to be said about a much-tougher and adjustable drum kit.

RB2 seems a little bit of overkill for me, Having dropped the cash for RB less than a year ago it seems silly to spend again for (pretty much) the same game.

Well, all the RB1 peripherals work for RB2. It's a crapton more music (all master tracks, too!), some gameplay tweaks, and you can use your RB1 tracks in RB2 (with a five-dollar download from XBLA), along with any DLC you had for RB1. If you just get the disc, it's a pretty great deal.

Enter Sandman, Run to the Hills, and Paranoid won't port over. It's only three songs but I just wanted to make it clear.Sable wrote:Annchan wrote:Amplitude rocks, anyone that has not played it find it and play it NAO!

I got my ions and they are terrific. It's a lot sturdier and it feels better than the regular drums and they are more responsive. The bass pedal isn't the best since it's really a high hat pedal but I've gotten used to it. I may replace the pedal in the future with something else but for now it's all right. I've only played with them for a few hours so I need a bit more time to really judge but it's awesome so far.
