NOWHERE have i said that it WONT sell multimillion copies.

 

Rock Band will be killing it, not in this iteration, but over time.

Guitar Hero no longer has the creative forces behind it, programming, or controlling it.

Guitar Hero no longer has the company responsible for the music (MTV/Viacom) behind it.

 

Those are in rock Bands court now.

Add in the same gameplay, most guitar gamers KNOWING that Rock Band is the real Guitar Hero 3, and that they have MUCH bigger plans for Rock Band than a simple single disk game

 

When the Rock Band Music Store opens, and Guitar Hero cant match it (as Neversoft has no music library to fall back on), we will see the true revenue generation of the music genre

.Those are pretty strong words for a game you've never played. I think some of the features they're bringing into GH III are rather new and exciting.

And let's not go off the deep end here and start claiming that Harmonix was legendary at evolving the GH series. Look at the differences between GH I, II, and 80's edition. There's very little there to get excited about other than new songs.

And while I think the music store for RB could be cool, it also sounds like they're trying their best to milk you to death with DLC. Depending on its pricing, it could be a giant hit or an equally giant flop.

In short, you're making grand assumptions when virtually nothing is known about either game.
