Rock Band 2 - Arguably the best game of the year -- I find it humbling that I listen to more music while playing Rock Band than I do on my iPod. The ongoing addition of new -- and good -- music to the game makes it an ongoing favorite at Null HQ.

complete failure. absolute crud. a rehash that looks exactly the same as the predecessor being the best game of the year? rubbish.

You forgot the part where Rock Band 2 has almost as many songs available as the entire Guitar Hero franchise...Combined (and done so over a year and a month vs. 3+ years)

Rock Band 2 = 104 songs included

  • 20 Free extra songs as DLC for RB2
  • 58 Rock Band 1 Songs for Merger (minus 3 that can't merge)
  • 345 DLC Songs
  • 504 total Rock Band 2 songs (less the 3 that can't merge).

Versus:

  • Guitar Hero 1 - 47 Songs
  • Guitar Hero II - 64 Songs
  • Guitar Hero II DLC - 24 Songs (less Bark at the Moon..Which is on GH1)
  • Guitar Hero Rocks the 80's - 30 Songs
  • Guitar Hero III - 73 Songs
  • Guitar Hero III DLC - 48 Songs (less the Death Magnetic DLC which is also available for WT DLC)
  • Guitar Hero Aerosmith - 41 Songs
  • Guitar Hero: On Tour - 31 Songs
  • Guitar Hero: World Tour - 85 Songs
  • Guitar Hero: WT DLC: 73 Songs
  • 516 Total Songs in the Entire Guitar Hero Library....Less duplicates which I didn't catch.

Yeah, I can't see how Rock Band didn't supplant the biggest video game in history from an ability standpoint :-\

 

 



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
