Hmm, still not sure about this. Rock Band was never really a thing hear but I loved Guitar Hero. Seeing as I dont have any of the DLC this would be a crazy expensive purchase with the game, intruments and DLC (well for the songs I want)

The hardcore players left guitar hero when Rock band came out because Harmonix (developer of GH1 and GH2) wasn't included in the sale of Red Octane (who owned the IP) to Activision. So Harmonix branched off and made a direct competitor in Rock Band when GH3 came out. Trust me when I say, Rock Band is leagues better.  It's the original team that made guitar hero what it is today.

Yeah here in Australia we didnt get RB1 until RB2 was out in the US so it never really took off here
