Personally I'll be getting both. Which one I actually buy the bundle for all depends on Rock Band 2's drumkit. If it looks nicer then GH:WT's then I'll get it. But with all of the original rock band's songs and DLC 100% backwards compatible, Rock Band 2 wins hands down for me.

As for which you should get, check out the song lists. Decide.

That's fair. Then buy Rock Band now, download whatever songs sound good to you, then get Rock Band 2 for x-mas. That way you can have a possible 500 songs by December.

Not a whole lot is known about GH's setlist.. as far as I know anyways.

I'll prolly buy both games. If not then just rock band 2 because you can export all the songs and your dlc. I like the idea of having over 500 to choose from lol. GHWT dlc plan looks like its coming around because they're having a music store. But they would have to release tracks every week to keep fans happy. Maybe their dlc will come out on mondays lol.

Rockband 2, since it's developed by Harmonics. If I recall though the Rockband instuments and Guitar Hero instruments will all be compatible with each others games so once you've got one of the games you can just buy th other's stand alone copy if you want.

idk how you could say that rockband 2 is going to be better than GH WT after watching these videos. for the ppl saying there going to get rockband 2 just got they dont want to buy new stuff i think is the wrost reason to pick that game. all rockband 1 stuff sucked so bad and the guitar really sucked. everybody i know used there GH2 and GH3 guitars. the only thing rockband 2 has on GH WT is more songs but the can be OWNED by the fact that you can make your on song in GH WT

I really am looking forward to the create a song feature in GH, along with their drums, (the cymbals pretty much made me happy), but the fact that rock band lets you keep all of your songs, updates weekly, has an amazing soundtrack already, has been successful at making this type of game (GH is doing the band thing for the first time, and still calling it Guitar Hero, that is kinda mean to the rest of the band), Overall I'd say RB2, just for the fact that the replay value is so high. In my scenario, I'd get RB2, Making a song isn't worth 200 dollars to me.

I'd have to go with Rock Band 2.

Rock Band 1 was great group game and highly entertaining. Most of my experiences of GH3 invovle becoming extremely frustrated and hand cramps.
