Will Guitar Hero 4 be better than Rock Band?

GH3 guitar was easier than Rock Band. The only reason it could be considered harder is mroe notes thrown at you. The area of acceptance on note hits was outrageous on GH3. You could be almost 1/4 of a beat behind and still register. GH2 is better than GH3. The songs in GH3 are lamer too, they are more popular of course, but easy and lame. Rock Band shit is hard too. Try playing Blackened on the drums. I do not see people paying for both sets of drums. The peopel who wanted a drumming game got Rock Band, and I do not see them double dipping. Rock Band also delivers new songss every week, GH releases an entire new game of what should be downloadable content. I find that rubbish.

 

You obviously haven't been following the development of the Wii version....

No it's not. Not even close. That's not an opinion, that is a provable fact. Less notes, less cording. In fact, most people who have only played Rock Band, can beat it on expert, but can't finish Hard on Guitar Hero, in my experience.

Saying Rock Band is harder than Guitar Hero 3 is silly and wrong.

The fret board moves faster on GH3, the songs are easier and have far less notes on Rockband, and the hit-box only matters if your playing on easy when you hit one note every 2 or 3 seconds.

 

For an expert Guitar Hero player, nothing on Rock Band is even remotely hard.

 

Now, drums, that's an entirely different instrument. However, comparing strictly guitar, Rock Band is dumbed down, yes, dumbed down, so that the difficutly doesn't put too much pressure on one particular member, even on expert mode. Go look at some of the comparison songs on youtube if you have any doubts.
