Guitar Hero Warriors of Rock vs Rock Band 3

I can finally make polls!

I'm pretty tired of music games, but Guitar Hero WoR has a great setlist, a setlist for the fans, not the casuals. This should have been Guitar Hero 4 (I hated WT, disliked 5)It's what the Guitar Hero3 fans wanted.I really don't like Rock Band 3s current setlist. It's mostly "this song is popular, lets put it in there!" instead of "this song should be fun to play". The new guitar for RB3 (which is optional) is pretty pricey, and I already play THEREAL GUITAR so it seems unecessary. But it looks like it could possibly teach me new songs. I did prefer Rock Band 2 over WT and 5 though.

There won't even be a contest, Rock Band 3 will be miles ahead. Better song list, if the pattern continues (though as of now GHWoR has a better list); massive backlog of DLC; ability to import songs from 1 & 2; keyboard as an instrument; and pro mode.

Rock Band 3 the Rock Band series always does something new unlike the Guitar Hero series.

Though I do like some of the songs in Guitar Hero Warriors of Rock I just don't like the interface of Guitar Hero it is unplayable IMO since I played Rock Band.

Guitar Hero Warriors tracks suck. Just give a crap load of 60-80 rock, hard rock. But thats never gonna happen.

i'm just wondering if you'll be able to use the rock band 2 guitars in the new one.

i'm glad to hear that.

Rock Band 3.

Rock Band 2 is still better than most of the GH games released recently.

I have high hopes for Rock Band 3.

Setlist wise is GH:WoR so far, RB3 haven't announced many of their songs. BUt so far I'm leaning towards GH, but I'll probably end up getting both:P

If I buy either, it'll be RB3.

If nothing else, we should all be supporting Rock Band 3 because it's not published by Activision.

RB 3. The guitars actually have strings! And Keyboard!mrmusicman247

add bohemian rhapsody to that list :D

day 1 buy aslong as i can carry my RB1 and 2 (soon to be green day aswell) content over.

Besides the fact RB3 has new instruments (real Guitar's, Bass, etc.), added 3 miic support, keyboards, and uses all the old songs from RB1 and RB2, and besides the fact that RB3 will be better than GH in almost every single way (due to the fact RB is made by GH creator's Harmonix)...the other issue is this.

RB has also demonstrated loyalty to their fans by releasing over 1000+ songs for RB all these years, and will continually show DLC support for fans. GH support has been inconsistant, and changes with the new games that are released.

That's how I feel. RB3 all the way. :P

Although I do think Activision is going the correct route and not trying to compete directly with Rock Band anymore by making the game appeal more as a game in an arcade sense than a band simulator, I still do not think it is enough. Rock Band 3 is going to be the absolute pinnacle of the music genre as it incorporates up to 7 band mates simultaneously, over 1000 songs (approaching 2000) and consistent fan-feed back to give the consumer exactly what they want out of their investments. Guitar Hero will be fun and has a decent setlist, but it will be completely overshadowed by Rock Band 3

I still can't believe people actually still support GH! That franchise should've been buried by Rock Band 2 years ago. Seriously, why would anyone pick GH over RB at this point!?

The last GH worth playing was GH2. I'll stick with my Harmonix-made music games, thanks.

It's unfortunate that this library of 1000+ songs will be halfway worthless with the launch of RB3. I wonder what they'll charge for RB3 tracks? Stands to reason that it takes more time to tune those. There's what? Six difficulties now? And a keyboard.McStrongfast

I own every Guitar Hero from 3 on, so why not add Warriors of Rock to the collection? I love Guitar Hero.

Rock Band easily. The on disc setlist doesn't really matter anymore for me. Theres so much DLC that one can find something he likes very quickly.

And Pro Mode is the next leap in music games.

No contest. Rock Band 3 for sure.

ianuilliam

wasn't GH2 the last GH game harmonix made?

Anyone else agree that Guitar Hero 2 had the best setlist? Bad-School-Girl

There's been so many of them out there that I can't say I'd know for sure.

GH2 was personally my 2nd favorite setlist out of box, after The Beatles. But GH2 was great. It's hard to even think of those games the same way though, now that I've got such a large collection of DLC. These days, the features would draw more attention from me than the initial setlist.
