What are you talking about? The reason they made this game is to give those older songs full band support. Up until now they've been guitar only since GH didn't add band support until World Tour. Notice how all of these songs come from the first three GH's and Rock the 80's. I would actually say that's a pretty swell thing for them to do, for those that want those earlier games more updated for today.

Come on ,your post makes it sound like Activision is naive and innocent and they want to make consumers happy.I mean Activision could give a rat ass about the " Full band support"is just another excuse to make you buy their game so they can get more cash. Most of the people that buy the guitar hero games are usually the same that has bought the previous installements so there is no real need to make this game.They should rather focus on other ways to make the future games more innovative.

I am not saying that one is less or more commercial than the other.In fact prior to this thread I didn´t know there was going to be a "Beatles" and a "Lego" Rockband.I am just saying that we shouldn´t try to make EA and Activision look like nice guys who only want to satisfy us consumers.
If you check the scores(on IGN) each Guitar Hero game has had a lower score than their predeccesor starting from GHIII 8.9 then GHIV 7.9. I am just saying that I don´t like the direction that franchise is going I feel it is going to end up like Madden and soon there will be less innovation and it would just be the same game with new songs.I can´t really comment on Rockband since I have not been following the series.This is just my personal opinion and everyone if free to pick any game they want,I am not saying "Don´t buy music games!" or anything like that.

Who cares if Activision gives a shit about full band support? I gave you the reasons it was created, and those are the new features to re-release the tracks. On top of that, what publisher isn't just trying to get a buck out of us consumers? Really, get off your high horse. Giving customers what they want is exactly what publishers want to do because that is how the keep people coming back. This was being requested by GH fans ever since World Tour got released and Activision listened. That is EXACTLY what making consumers happy is.
Using IGN as an end all be all of review scores is bullshit. If we're going to use reviews, then use the averages. Guitar Hero III, Guitar Hero: World Tour and Guitar Hero: Metallica all have almost the exact same Metacritic.
Regarding Madden, I have a strong feeling you don't even play the series, so unless you actually know something about the game and can comment on what is so wrong about it, why not quit making such ignorant comments? There are those of us that actually DO play Madden that see online leagues as a pretty significant upgrade which was just created last year.

What is wrongw with IGN? And since when are you so into protecting Activision?I mean I have been playing all the guitar hero games(and beat them all and I am a member of the guitar hero community scorehero so I would know).Plus my point has been proven if you read this thread you will see that a member here stated the he owns previous games and has not interest in getting this one why would he anyway to get more of the same only with some "full band support upgrade"? If you are so into this games you can easily get the others for cheap.I give you the reason about the madden series I mean I haven´t played them but it was just an example of a milked series I just put it there since there are people on the forums who bring it up all the time.
