Cookyman Posted September 17, 2008 Posted September 17, 2008 Is it worth trading in my GH3 for Wii for a Rock Band Guitar and copy of Rock Band for PS3? space issues means until me and the missus move house a drum set is well out of the question, but love the DLC on rock band and think my girlfriend would secretly love singing with the microphone (any USB mic works right?) This what I'm thinking about too, but then GH4 is out soon which looks even better than RB. But by then GH3 will be worth pennies so it's a tough decision... Just traded mine in to help in my purchase of a PS3 and got £36 for it not bad considering it cost me £29.99
Sanchez Posted September 17, 2008 Posted September 17, 2008 I really want this game now after looking at drum videos on youtube and such. I'm waiting patiently for Rock Band 2 but the wait might kill me.
flameboy Posted September 17, 2008 Posted September 17, 2008 Just traded mine in to help in my purchase of a PS3 and got £36 for it not bad considering it cost me £29.99 thats not bad where did you trade it at? Did you have a ton of stickers on your guitar?
dazzybee Posted September 17, 2008 Posted September 17, 2008 I have Rock Band, it's a great game. But I would seriously advise everyone else to get GHWT. I think the game looks incredible
Dyson Posted September 17, 2008 Posted September 17, 2008 You reckon? I think the RB2 setlist shits all over the GHWT one.
gmac Posted September 17, 2008 Posted September 17, 2008 I have Rock Band, it's a great game. But I would seriously advise everyone else to get GHWT. I think the game looks incredible you can't really say that until both are out Guitar Hero suffers from being over-charted (notes where there are none in the song) but I don't know how this is in WT out of the current UK releases RB > GH by a massive distance in my opinion better DLC and better game modes
Babooo Posted September 17, 2008 Posted September 17, 2008 Agreed. I've been sitting on the fence about the new GH/RB games. I've got GH3 on the PS2 but I'm looking to get one of the newer titles. RB setlist and DLC is a massive plus for me. I just dunno which instruments to get.
tapedeck Posted September 17, 2008 Posted September 17, 2008 You reckon? I think the RB2 setlist shits all over the GHWT one. *faints at such epic bait* RB is looking more and more promising as I just saw Radiohead have 2 songs in there. If only paranoid Android was in there my life would be complete.
S.C.G Posted September 18, 2008 Posted September 18, 2008 You reckon? I think the RB2 setlist shits all over the GHWT one. I does, but the GH:WT one is still respectable anyway I'm buying GH as it comes out in Novemeber, wayyyyy before RB2 that way I'll have something to play before it comes out and I can then use those instruments with RB ^^ plus I really dislike using the pedal in RB now so it's win-win for me.
Ramar Posted September 18, 2008 Posted September 18, 2008 You reckon? I think the RB2 setlist shits all over the GHWT one. Word. Plus I've got lots of awesome DLC that I'm not willing to leave alone just yet.
Shorty Posted September 18, 2008 Posted September 18, 2008 I really don't see myself buying RB2, it just doesn't seem to be enough of a departure from the previous title. Graphically/interface-wise it looks exactly the same, I wouldn't buy a new kit anyway, the online band mode is irrelevant to me because my flatmates are my band. The only thing I would be tempted with is GH:WT for it's song creation, but I imagine that to take so much time and attention to detail, only to wind up with a crappy song at the end. (I was never very good at making C&C maps, N+ levels, custom rollercoasters on rollercoaster tycoon... those kind of things )
flameboy Posted September 19, 2008 Posted September 19, 2008 Yeah shorty I feel the same way about the song editor it is nothing I will ever be able to achieve to a decent standard. It's a hard choice what to get as there its almost like you are buying into a platform.

(I was never very good at making C&C maps, N+ levels, custom rollercoasters on rollercoaster tycoon... those kind of things ) Doesn't matter if you suck there will be loads of talented composers out there that will make kickass tracks and they are all free! thats not bad where did you trade it at? Did you have a ton of stickers on your guitar? Never used the stickers - got a good trade in from gamestation they originally offered me £70 for some wii games including GH3. I went to Game who offered me £85 ( I got them to print this price out). Went back to Gamestation with printout and they offered me £86 lol
Ramar Posted September 20, 2008 Posted September 20, 2008 Shoot the Runner!! Fucking awesome. Just the other day we were in my mates car all singing along. We'll have no problems with the vocals for it. Now to get some points..
