Guitar Hero 4, or Rock Band 2?

[Brennan]

Which is better?

I like the drums on GH4 better.

[Slothy]

I've said it before, and I'll say it again, until they make a lag compensation that works (or in the case of GH:WT, a drumset that works), I consider rhythm music games like this to have died for me after GH2.

[Madame Adequate]

Guitar Hero 2.

[~*~Celes~*~]

I like both Rockband 2 and Guitar Hero. I LOVE Rockband's song selection, but I just can't keep away from Guitar Hero's in-game design :( it's so...awesome! colored circles are the best :D

[Shoeberto]

I would say Rock Band 2. GH:WT just felt very meh to me. It probably also has something to do with me being a Harmonix fanboy.

[Rikku_Yuffie_girl]

I like Rock Band more than any Guitar Hero. Although I love them both. :]

[Rase]

I prefer Rock Band 2's song list, so there you go.

[I Took the Red Pill]

rb2 :grover:

[edczxcvbnm]

I hate the way they handled singing the song in GHWT and I like that Rockband is less forgiving when it comes to hitting notes.

RB2 wins =D

[Breine]

Never played Guitar Hero or Rock Band for that matter. It's just never interested me. However, the new Metallica one does look just a little interesting.

[Sephex]

No fail mode is in Rock Band 2, therefore it wins. It's great to use when you and friends are at a party (possibly drunk) and you or an inexperienced player does not have to worry about runing a song for everyone.

I would say the Guitar Hero drums are better if they:

A) Worked
B) Worked
C) I really wish they worked right

[theundeadhero]

I must have used the only working set in the world.

[DarkBahamut]

I made a Rock Band vs Guitar Hero thread already, but not as specificly as you. Rock Band 2.

[Kirobaito]

My drums for GH:WT work fine, though I don't use them that often.

I've not played RB2, only RB1. I like GH:WT, though. I love the song selection, and prefer circles to those little squares.

[Lone Wolf Leonhart]

Everyone knows saxophone hero is where it's at.

[ReloadPsi]

If memory serves, Rock Band games expect you to play the same songs over and over in order to advance. That's fine for a professional music career but in a video game? No thanks.

Guitar Hero.

There needs to be a keyboard peripheral that could replace vocals in instrumental pieces.

[xXsarahXx]

Rock Band 2 :)

Great fun, although i do prefer the looks of GH.
