Posted by Vampnagel P. Wingpire

So...anybody still play guitar hero? I'll probably pick up GH2 soon. Maybe.




Posted by Vampnagel P. Wingpire

Bobby, you need to get this and R6V2.




Posted by Dark Bulb 4.3

BUT BUT BUT BUT BUT butts lol




Posted by Vampnagel P. Wingpire

I'm going to take that as a yes.




Posted by Dark Bulb 4.3

no you're not!




Posted by Vampnagel P. Wingpire

so you're getting it this week? Awesome.




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

gh3 is better imo

and gh4/rock band 2 comes out soon anyways




Posted by Vampnagel P. Wingpire

I meant 3. Which is what I got. I couldn't wait any longer.




Posted by Ant

idk, I kinda wanna get it, but don't. I just really dislike the whole Guitar Hero look, just makes me think less of the franchise as a whole.




Posted by Vampnagel P. Wingpire

Who cares how it looks, it's really fun!




Posted by Ant

I also find it extremely repetitive after one or two songs. the same ****ing chords over and over again. granted that's what most of rock is.




Posted by Vampnagel P. Wingpire

Well don't get it then, baby.




Posted by Ant

WELL OKAY THEN. I WON'T. maybe when the new one comes out, idk.




Posted by Vampnagel P. Wingpire

you suck




Posted by Ant

Posted by Ant

Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

Posted by Skitzo Control

Or we could all be cool and get Guitar Hero 4, then I'll play with ya'll and you'll be like, "OMG SKITZO U ROXKS," and I'll be like, ":cool:."

I play both, currently. My roommate also plays, but she is still working on beating both GH2 and GH3 on Expert.

RB2 interests me more right more. Track list is pretty ****ing great.



Posted by Shade

Can you play RB with a GH controller?




Posted by Ant

yes, though I like the feel of the Rock Band guitar more, despite it being built poorly.




Posted by Panic!

i'm ballin i'm rollin




Posted by Shade

Sweet. RB2 here I come.




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

RB controller sucks. GHIII controller is awwight, but the Xbox GHII controller is the best imo




Posted by Shade

I like the Wii GH3 controller the best, actually. But the GH4 controller looks pretty pimp, gonna take a lot of will power not to buy it.

Quoting Vampiro V. Empire: RB controller sucks. GHIII controller is awwight, but the Xbox GHII controller is the best imo


imo I've become more comfortable with Rock band's controller plus I like the look of it, but I absolutely hate XBox's GH2 controller.I guess it's just whatever you get used to

My personal fav controller though is my very own GH1 controller. it came separately from the game so it has a slightly different feel to it. the buttons and the plastic on the guitar itself are made with a different material that prevents fingerprints and feels less oily.

I liked the rock band controller cause the buttons didn't extend out of the "guitar". easy to push down on, slide your fingers across. eh.



Posted by Red

only problem I found with the rockband controller was that the buttons made noise when you released them. so you would hear the song but then you would also hear the buttons making noises and so it would appear offbeat and screw you up sometimes. also whenever I play run to the hills the strum bar feels non-responsive for some reason.




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

I just find the GHII controller to be the quickest in response.




Posted by Shade

Which you really need in GH2




Posted by Skitzo Control

The GH2 controller's Whammy Bar wears out, the strum bar is way too loud, and you can hear yourself pressing the fret buttons. I'm sold. :)




Posted by NeXidala

Ahhh, I really dislike the RB strum bar. It just feels unresponsive especially during faster songs. I don't know how to describe it. And the fret buttons are so stiff in my opinion.

I'm not sure if other people really find that a problem.




Posted by Panic!

I don't mind the fret buttons on the Rock Band guitar controller at all. They don't bother me. It's the strum bar, like you said. It doesn't feel like you're hitting it sometimes.




Posted by NeXidala

Yeah, it feels inaccurate and (I'm having trouble describing this) idk like airy. With the GH controller I can feel when I'm strumming each note etc. and it feels responsive and such.




Posted by Panic!

I think I'm used to the clicking noise the Guitar Hero controller makes when I strum. Maybe that's my problem.

the Rockband's whammy bar seems unresponsive because, if you have it held down even the slightest when you begin to whammy the long notes, then it doesn't work.



Posted by NeXidala

In my opinion, I think that the Rock Band guitar could do with some improvements.




Posted by Red

well, this xmas rockband2 comes out so maybe along with their new drum set will come a new guitar?




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

They've already showed the new guitar a billion times.

And RB2 comes out in, like, september




Posted by Ant

I was tempted to get GHIII with the guitar, but then realized it cost 100bux. **** that.




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

30 bucks for a plastic guitar is pretty awwight considering you pay sixty for an extra box controller.




Posted by Ant

f[COLOR="Lime"]u[/COLOR]ck. that.




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

yeah, it would've been stupid of you considering GH4 and RB2 come out soon.

Posted by Dark Bulb 4.3

only paid 70 for mine!




Posted by Ant

used or ebay or magic man?




Posted by NeXidala

Ant, if I were you I'd just save up for GH4 or RB2 instead of buying any of their previous installments now.




Posted by Ant

well ****, now I don't know which one to get of those.




Posted by Dark Bulb 4.3

if 4 has the thing where you put your own songs, I'll be rocking out to Beethoven's Presto agitato Sonata 14, *** I want to play that on a controller so much

also, Lisa said she got hers new for 70, she thought they made a mistake, then I checked Amazon and saw the wireless bundle for 70 as well, I went and bought it. I think it may have been some promotional thing I guess, I checked and it sure isn't 70 anymore!




Posted by Ant

oh gay :(




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire


Quoted post: well ****, now I don't know which one to get of those.


If you're serious, RB2 seems to be way better. GHIV's tracklist is pretty bad in comparison and the only thing it has over RB is creating your own songs. Which is gay anyways.



Posted by BLUNTMASTER X

but guys, we have...







METALLICA! \m/

Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

wow, I'm falling behind with news. the guitar looks exactly the same except for the wood finish. I can't tell just by looking at it if they made any adjustments to the strum bar or fret buttons, I doubt it but hopefully they did.



Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

They definitely did. Hands-on have reported improved responsiveness and a less "squishy" feeling. You can bet the developers wouldn't overlook something like that
