Im stuck on which one to get for ps3.... My birthday is coming up september 13th, and i was planning on preordering on of the two. I'm just confused on which one i should get, I absolutely loved GH I and GH II but since Rock Band is by Harmonix, i'm thinkin it will be good as well. WHY WOULD THEY DO THIS TO ME???!! lolAny suggestions?

I'll be getting both. If I had to choose just one it would be Rockband. Only because with the different instruments it will have more replayability. I'm not sure about the price, but it's been rumored to be around $200.00 for the whole package.

rock band has 4 pieces of equipment .... it will probably cost between 200-300 $
that game will be funny if you have a brother/sister or friends to play with you ... if you can't often have them in your house you will get bored and find the game useless
with rock band you might have more stuff to do since you have drums and singing to master, compared to only guitar

guitar hero is less complicated, lower cost, easy to play, one instrument

Rock Band all the way man

GH games are fun an innovative but i think it gets boring doing the same thing over and over again and aleast with Rock Band you have the option of using a different instrument every now and then

I'd get whatever comes first, then the other next.

Yeah I'm not giving up on Guitar Hero. III looks amazing, despite the failure that was '80s.

thing is, rock band is from Harmonix and they gained my full support after they put out Guitar Hero 1 and 2. so to me 3 is just an immitation. PLUS if u have the Guitar Hero 2 controller for the 360, it will work for Rock Band which means u only need a drum set and mic (about $70) to have the full set (well, i guess u still need one more guitar but hey, ud need another one to play multiplayer on Guitar Hero 3)

i just dont like how the only multiplayer games there are seem to be shooters. Rock Band should save me from that

im getting both. and i like playing Guitar Hero games by myself just to waste time when i'm waiting for stuff. it's pretty funny. But the online rock-band thing is gonna be sweet. lol.. and i think it could be one of the first times you'll hear someone say "Concert is cancelled due to high latency between band members." or "Concert cancelled bacause the drummer didn't pay his internet bill"
