Rock Band 2

This game is ridiculously fun, the new songs are mostly all awesome and I think I'm developing carpal tunnel syndrome from playing so much. It's trophy enabled which rules too. My only real complaint is that some of the songs are simply too hard, the same problem the last game had. The difference b/w medium difficulty and hard difficulty is really large on a number of the songs. Otherwise, its a blast and I heartily recommend it.

The menu graphics are worse than the original Rockband. Yes, there are more features that make RB2 more interesting, but it is far from an upgrade. I had to buy the $5 export key, so that I could play my RB1 songs on RB2. I seldom play the RB2 songs anymore.

I have the whole set of Guitar Heros for PS3 (III,Aerosmith, and World Tour), and this game hangs right there with them. Both GH World Tour and This game are extremely comparable, share some of the same tracks, and allow full band play with online. Rock Band Definitely has more tracks available, but GH World Tour allows you to make your own tracks. Both have their advantages, and I like them both. The graphics are outstanding in both of them, but I do give the nod towards GHWT, because the backgrounds occasionally blend with the note board and make it difficult to follow the songs. I still highly recommend this game, since it is the first Rock band to be fully compatible with the Guitar Hero III Guitars (les paul models), and The World Tour Guitars, Drums, and Mic. That's right, Playstation made the two companies put aside their differences and patched the peripheral, so no big room full of plastic instruments to play each game. Buy Rock Band and Guitar Hero World Tour, enjoy them both!!! Too bad they did not do this for Rock Band 1.

with the Key form the ps store and all the downloaded songs i have and the songs this game has is just an amazing selection i decided to get this because of down with the sickness! which ended up being way harder then i thought... i relay wanted to play the Tool songs on guitar hero world tour but down with the sickness prevailed. so for the downloadable content and transport of rock band 1 songs this is a better buy then gh world tour. but for songs you cant find anywhere else and the new metallica album guitar hero wins. but ima wait to see if rock bad will get the Tool songs! then i will not need it!

I purchased this for my 29yr old son, and soon he got me involved playing the drums! It is great to have a game everyone can participate in.
