Guitar Hero III: Now featuring Classic Rock DLC

Hopefully they will release some stuff like this for Rock Band.

they already have released some of this stuff for Rock Band, i got Juke Box Hero in RB and man, its awesome. i wouldnt be suprised if either of the other songs are on RB dlc, i just havent checked.

except for that whole part of it being $80 more to start with and you still don't have a full set of guitars. the drums might be cool, but the guitar sucks. the look and menus of rock band are much cooler, but guitar hero is a much harder product to master. i can pass expert on rock band without practicing, but can't pass hard on guitar hero after three months. i do like the rock band dlc, but don't go and complain about the songs being 80 ms points higher when the game is $80 more.

GHIII with guitar was $100. Rock Band with Guitar, Microphone, and Drums is $170. I think the $70 is more than worth it considering what you get. Not to mention the game is more accessible to people due to the fact that it is easier to play. Rock Band focuses on FUN. GH wants you to be a Guitar God which is stupid because playing Expert on GH means nothing when it comes to playing a real guitar. So I will stick with Rock Band because I play games to have FUN.

sorry. it was only $70 more and you're complaining that a three song pack is 75 cents more.

and your 'fun' argument is lame. if you're new, play guitar hero or rock band on easy or medium and it's the same. i have more fun with gh3 because it's more challenging.

we'll just have to agree to disagree on the point of a game. it's not fun to beat the game's hardest setting the first time around.

and come on. neither game has anything to do with playing a real guitar. i'm not better at driving a car 200mph because of forza or shooting a rocket launcher because of halo. it's a game. none of it really matters.

One is easily able to do so, since "More Than a Feeling" is on GH1.

Of course, if you don't have a PS2, that hardly matters.

Eh I'm content with Guitar Hero III's multiplayer. It gets my girlfriend to play games and she's the only one I'd want to play it with anyway. Plus I have no desire to play those clanky drums and if I wanna sing I'll just turn on the karaoke. Plus Rock Band/Harmonx has been tanted by the black death that is MTV.

Agreed. I have not played Rock Band but through reviews and word of mouth Rock Bands Guitar play is too easy. Plus people are comparing apples to oranges here. Activison's game is called GUITAR Hero. Ahhh emphasis on guitar. On the other hand we have Rock BAND. No not a marching band but I guess we could make a case for being slighted for not getting a trumpet, twirling baton etc etc. They are two different games that use a common theme to draw people in. Me personally I like to shred on the Guitar and you know what I suck at the Hard level. But I am going to try and figure it out. Brings me to another point. Do we not hear a lot of news about games being too casual and too dumbed down. Most complaints I hear about GH3 is that it is too hard on HARD and EXPERT. Once again those levels appeal to the hardcore fans that want more of a challenge. Can't relate. Play Call of Duty 4 on Easy and then set it to Veteran...(compare)...then start a blog about how you prefer to play Soldier of Fortune b/c the enemy AI is too stupid to realize which end of the gun the round comes out. At the end of the day it is all a matter of preference. Granted I would still like more DLC for GH3 or even a port of PS2 versions if Harmonix doesn't mind. Crankball please keep in mind I am not taking a shot at you. I just decided to reply to you b/c I like your simplified reasoning.
