| kn said: Another question for rockband... How similar is the guitar play to guitar hero? Pretty much identical gameplay or is it different? I thought guitar hero had a patent on that type of gameplay or something. With that said, I watched a guy playing the drums on demo kiosk at Best Buy. He was playing on hard (or so he said) and the "markers" or whatever they are called were flying by at a fairly aggressive speed and there were A LOT of them. He got through it but was really struggling. It looked fun but really HARD.... |
I played it yesterday at Best Buy. I suck hard at Guitar Hero, but was actually pretty good at with the guitar in Rock Band. Finished two songs on Hard on my first try for each. Even got 86% of the notes on the second one. Now my sister, who kicks ass at Guitar Hero, struggled on Rockband. She thought it was a lot harder. Maybe she's just used to the GH controller, I don't know. I liked the Rockband Guitar a lot more than the previous 3 GH Guitars I've tried. Buttons felt a little smaller and quicker to press, and I think it just looked nicer overall. I like the square notes as well, easier to know when they cross the threshold to be hit.
As for the drums, the sticks were missing, so we couldn't really play them. The Kick Pedal also wasn't there, and
there was no where to sit down. So can't really comment on them.
