ya. I wish that rockband would kind of fill in some of the gaps music wise
that gh has. but either way. the amount of dlc for rockband is staggering.

Rock band really is more fluid. Up til GH 3, rock band and guitar hero
would've been the same, guitarwise. But since Activision took the license,
poor GH seems to have gone down the drain. But don't forget that the main
factor is Harmonix is composed more or less of musicians and people who know
music. Again I stress. If it weren't for the fact that Guitar hero world
tour had hotel California, I wouldn't touch it.

I've never played rock band but it seems more fluid.
plus like you said. there are times in gh where notes just don't seem to
make sense.

For all those who are interested, here are my opinions and hopefully Brandon
will throw in his own two sense.
Lag in gh is still there, moreso than in rock band. The drums are weirder
with three drums and two extra symbols. And the worst thing is? The fact
that setlists between the two games collide somewhat. About 12 of the songs
that are in rock band 2 are also in Guitar hero world tour. And they play
differently. Now, this might just be me but having to relearn one song for a
different game can be quite tiresome. Especially when some of the notes make
no sense. And it doesn't help guitar hero world tour has three songs by the
same artist. Sure You can argue that this appeals to the fans, but the
argument can also be made that for the ps3 and xbox360 versions, they could
just release them as downloadable content, and allow the default list to
have some other songs.
That's just my opinion based off playing world tour once and hearing what
other people have said about comparisons. again, I hope Brandon will
contribute to this discussion.
