I'm leaning to GHIV now

Now this is what I'm talking about! I'm so happy, this just made E3 for me! Thanks Activision!

Wow after reading all of the features of this game, I'm even more impressed.

8:22: Kick pedal port allows for Y-splitter and double bass pedals. Another port is for future expansions. A midi in port for plugging in ANY electronic drum kit or drum machine to play with Guitar Hero. Can also be used for song creation mode. We're really impressed right now. Test presentation of playing the drum pads as a midi controller. Looks like it just became that much easier to have a unified drum set for Rock Band and Guitar Hero.

 

 

Personally, I figured GHIV was gonna own Rock Band 2 from the start. Seems like RB2 is trying to beef up its music library to make up for the worse and missing gameplay elements from Guitar Hero. This, I feel, is due to the fact that RB was rushed out because it wanted to launch at a similar time to Guitar Hero in order to compete with the first string of adopters.

 

If GHIV didn't exist, Rock Band 2 wouldn't release till next christmas and it would be a better game. Anyone disagree with that theory? I doubt it.
