I fail to see why this matters really. I mean what needs to be added to Rock band since you can buy the same DLC songs? Are they going to add a dedicated 5th slot just for tambourine and cowbell? Even if it was coming at the same time to the PS3, since I already own Rock Band and the instruments what would possess me to buy rock band 2?
As to Guitar Hero 4 thats just a very silly rip off and there is no way ever I'd buy another guitar hero game after 3 sucked ass and Rock Band came out. I see nothing in GH4 that makes me want to buy it over rock band and I can't even use the instruments I already paid 200 dollars for, no thanks.
To me, unless huge features are added, the separation of new songs from new releases (which was the reason to get guitar hero 1 AND 2, the extra songs) it really makes no sense to buy yearly updates with marginal improvements.
Now, as always, I'm sort of torn by the "who's a bigger douche" contest EA and Activision have going. One one hand I hate Activision for ripping off Harmonix's ideas and being a dick about guitar compatibility, but on the other hand I hate EA/Harmonix for being a dick about releasing a "timed exclusive" 360 version. Proof once again that when consolidation happens, everyone loses. Either way though I doubt anyone will be crying they can't get Rockband 2 unless there's some super amazing addition they could do that I can't think of. Unlike with the 360, there's other good games to play on the PS3 through the end of the year.
