The drums are supposed to be more realistic too.  Personally i think it's stupid to make guitar hero so much like rock band, but i guess they have to change things up to keep attracting people to the game

guitar hero came out with this crazy new idea of this plastic guitar thing, and then rockband just happened to use the EXACT SAME THING

i think that its good when companies do this, because it makes them compete to give the consumer a better product. all in all hopefully we'll get some sick games out of it

Rockband is such a piece of shit.  They charge $150 JUST so you can play drums, guitar and vocals.  The graphics and quality of the game aren't deserving of a $150 game.  Guitar Hero trumps Rockband any day.

And yes before anyone tries to pwn me, I have played it.

Custom songs....yikes!

Looks like video game companies are starting to get it though. Sell the game engine and let the masses program the software. Valve has been making bank doing that for years!

It should be interesting to see how they utilize this feature online. I see a shitload of potential with a GHWT custom song database online with different versions of each song avaible for download...Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

It comes with 3 controllers and a game. What are you upset about? Thats 150 dollars worth of controllers and 60 dollars worth of game for 170 dollars.

no not at all that was a very stupid remark because rock band is a whole band so just because they have a guitar doesnt make it the same as guitar hero but guitar hero is supposed to only have a guitar and they are going like rock band and adding drums
