i think Guitar Hero 4 will be better because thay were the ones that first came up with a guitar game, all Rock Band did was add drums and a base guitar, which was pretty awesome, but in Guitar Hero 4, they will have drums and a base, which i think, will beet Rock Band, and maybe even beat Rock Band 2, if there ever will be a Rock Band 2

 

If they stop inventing their music charts and actually sticking to what is in the song, maybe. But the fact that Every song seems to be a non stop 3 note chord fest makes me think they are a bunch of retards trying to make this a Tony Hawk combo game and not a music game.

 

That's a first, you claim that Guitar Hero is worse because they have worse charts. Basically, the chording and hammeron-pulloff combos in Guitar Hero make it very difficulty, especially on expert.

If you actually want to get really good at the game, you need to learn this stuff. I am very glad it was included because it gave the game much more replayability for me.

If you can play anything past set 6 of Guitar Hero on HARD mode(not expert) then you can play any expert sony on Rock Band with the guitar hardware, period. It really is much, much easier, which is in turn more casualized, which is again in turn worse, imo.

Let me point you to a youtube video.

...experienced players know how relatively hard 3s and 7s is to play on expert Guitar Hero. The Rock Band version while still hard to casual players, is slightly easier than Guitar Hero's "hard" difficulty. This is unfortunate. There should be a "Very expert" mode on Rock Band, lol.

If you'll notice the Rock Band fretboard also moves slighly slower than the Guitar Hero fretboard, again to increase the ease of difficulty.

The solo is particularlly easy on the Rock Band version which is a dissapointment, as the solo's are the hardest and most rewarding parts of the Guitar Hero franchise, and yes, also of the real guitar.
