Ozzy+Zakk seals the deal for sure...
That, and now that GH has Metallica, Aerosmith, and a few others on exclusivity...
I like GH better... My uncle-in-law liked the drums WAAAY better in GH, and he plays drums, bass, and regular guitar. He says the cymbals really make a difference, and that the amount of rubber makes it easier to actually do a drumroll, whereas in rock band, it's simply not possible...
Also, the slider bar rocks. It makes solos AWESOME, and vocals are much harder (in a good way), than in rock band... It made singing "Dammit" a challenge... I also like the new star power button, so I don't nessecarily have to tilt the controller. Also, the user-generated songs online are actually pretty fun.
I downloaded a cover of "Handlebars" by Flobots, expecting it to be crap, and it was actually really good. someone translated the violin to sitar, and translated that chart to guitar... the "trumpet" was a keyboard, and there were no vocals, but you could sing in the empty spaces if you knew the words (adding even 1 keyboard note enables the mic). other than no vocals and no trumpet, it was perfect. we knew the words, so it was fun...
Also, I found "Halo Theme", with the Ambient Vocals somehow intact... My bro was like "Ahhhh Ahhhh Ahhhhh AAAhhhhhh Ahhh Ah Ahhhhhh". It was awesome...
Not to mention, I hated the RB1 char creator... I love the GH:WT one, and I have yet to try the RB2 one, but, I've heard the GHWT one is better anyway, and I like the way the characters look better too...
I'm going to try to buy RB2 as well (I've played it, and liked it), but I like GH better, IMHO.
