Which one are you getting? Guitar Hero 4, Rock band 2, or both?

I was thinking about GH4, until I saw the setlist for RB2.  They said over 500 songs by the end of the year.  I definitely getting Rock Band 2.

both
I got RB1 so I get the game only of both...

if the leaked set list for GHWT is true then probably that version, way more songs I like, it will my first GH game

can I go with both?  It looks to me that Guitar Hero World Tour is shaping up quite nicely and I happen to prefer the GH games to Rock Band but I will be picking up the disc of RB2 just because I already have the instruments at my disposal.

Rock Band 2 for me. Regardless of how good GH:WT tuns out to be, I've invested a lot in Rock Band, and I love the game to death.

I'm buying both. But out of the two, I'm more excited for Guitar Hero. Partly because of the extra input for the drums, but mostly because I'm really good at the guitar, and Guitar Hero charts are more difficult. Rock Band always feels off to me.

Plus, it has Hendrix exclusive, which gives it an instant setlist victory.

I am getting both, but I have to see what the GHWT set list is first.  The leaked set list was proven fake. See address below.

Well, RB2 is out next month and I really don't want the insentive to buy a whole bunch of new equipment. (Not seeing the point of play GHWT with RB drums).

I don't know. I heard the PS3 version of RB2 doesn't come out for little while after the 360 version.
No idea which one to get, but probably RB.

Guitar Hero 4 all the way.

Leaked setlist has been confirmed fake, just read around like the link that RHCPfan posted above.

I'm getting both. All that I needed to know was that I could use my Rock Band drums and mic with GH:WT, and since I can I'm sold.

"Guitar Hero 4 all the way. 

i like the drum kit much better

i like the new guitar much better

i like the new gameplay features (garageband-like song creation features)

and the set list is pretty tight right now, and im sure you can use the dlc from GH3, like that awesome Top Gun theme. 

And besides, Van Halen had me sold on this one. i want eruption in there so bad

Anyways I'm getting both. But I'm sure Rock Band 2 will be the better product even without all those new features such as song creation (which I'm still skeptical about).

Both,But if I had to choose,GH:WT..Jimi Hendrix sold it for me.

For me, a RB veteran, Rock Band 2 makes the most sense. I have already spent hundreds of dollars on the game, controllers, and DLC, so it is logical to go ahead and not throw all of that away. GH4 looks fun and the rumored setlist had a few gems on it, so I might just pick up the disc. Cross-game functionality on controllers is hot.

GH4

If I had more time and money I would get both, but I'm going for GH: World Tour.  The main reason is because the standard instruments are more appealing to me and making your own songs is going to be hella fun. 

Neither. Waste of money.

Probably RB2 with it's backwards compatibility thing and DLC.

I prefer rock band software but with the european prices i think il go for guitar hero 4 hardware and use that with rockband

Rock band 2 for sure! The interface is much cleaner and smoother (Guitar hero IV still looks rough with the cartoonish edgy colors, not like Rock Band's elegant gameplay and interface). Also, The drum kit and the guitar are more user/noob friendly (less buttons and no touch sliders for playing with noobish friends and GFs).

And I dunno about you guys, but the GHIV make your own music stuff looks really hard, I just wanna play with my friends and have fun! It's almost like the difference between say Burnout and Forza Motorsport, too much sim=not much fun.

The hardcore will go with Rock Band 2, mainly because they've heard of it already.
However the mainstream know the brand "Guitar Hero", and I predict that it will sell better.
I personally would go with Guitar Hero mainly because of the creation tools.

"both
I got RB1 so I get the game only of both..."

both
im getting the rock band 2 disc and the guitar hero world tour bundle
if i had to choose one it would be rock band 2 just cause of all the money I've put into the DLC

Truly which ever one has more Rage Against The Machine Songs but im leading towards Rockband 2 since in GH3 they had low quality Bulls on Parade which is just a insult

im geting both the only down side is finding space for all thease dam drum kits and guitars im going to have.

I'm definitely getting RB2.  I just love the vibe Harmonix put into the first game, and the RB2 set list looks great.  Plus I already have a ton of Rock Band songs. 

I'm definitely curious about GH:WT, though.  I'll have to see what the rel set list is like, and then I may pick up the game only.  But Neversoft put a harsher, cruder edge to GH when they took it over, and I just don't like GH3 as much as the previous versions.  So I can't get excited about their new take on the series. 

Activision was very smart to make World Tour compatible with the Rock Band gear.  Now they actually have a chance at my 60 bucks.

I will most prbly be getting both, old RB instruments are compatible with the 360 version of GH:WT, no reason to not buy both in that case.

IMO, main issue with the "choosing" is the price that comes with instruments,

Also, i'll prlby start destroying my original drums intentionnaly, once they break, buy the new set or mod the old one somehow (I void waranties)

I'm just getting Rock Band 2 because even though there is some exclusive artists, most of the content will be available as a download or something similar at least, and it's just not worth having to switch discs and manage two inventories of songs for me.

Also, I've noticed that I don't really listen to the songs as much as just my own drumming, which isn't usually my favorite part of a song anyways. I'm too focused on drumming to think about it.

I am buying RB2 with the instruments (mainly to replace my messed up RB1 ones) and then the GH:WT game on it's own, as the Rock Band instruments are compatible, FINALLY!

I might get a GH guitar, just because they're generally better, so long as it is without a detachable neck.

GH4

Three words:
Jimmy fucking Hendrix

I really want RB2 but i'm not sure if it's even coming to the UK

that shouldnt even be a question.....ROCK BAND 2

Both. I've got my rockband instruments, so I don't need any new instruments, so I'm just going to get both games.

You mean the 4 songs they've actually announced? Cuz that leaked list was fake. And Activision has already said GH3 DLC will not work with GH:WT.

On subject, I'm getting RB2, at least the game and drums, and I'll probably buy just the game for GH:WT.
"

Probably getting both but RB2 is where I am going to invest most of my time into.  I have bought so much DLC so far that it only makes sense.

RB in my opinion just has a more user-friendly feel to it.

I may get GH:WT i don't know yet. It does look fun now that i think of it. the songs may not be as good as RB2's but GH:WT does look kinda fun. espically with that sliding finger thing at the bottom of the guitar.....

I'll be getting GHIV.  I like the harder guitar parts of the series.  Plus the Create-a-Song thingie.

Both. =)

Guitar Hero World Tour for me. :-)

Rock Band 2 for me for sure. I may rent the GH:WT disk, but that's it.

Rock Band 2..
Ever since gh3 the guitar hero series looks wrong to me.. circles look wrong and I can't stand the graphics

And besides.. RB2 is backward compatible with all my 1.8gb worth of RB DLC and I prefer Harmonix as a company to Neversoft.

Rock Band 2 for me! The ability to use Rock Band tracks and DLC in Rock Band 2 is what has me sold. That means endless ours of entertainment. So much music!!!

At first, I was only going to get RB2 because I had the rock band instruments and really didn't want to make room for new ones. Then I heard I can use my instruments in GH:WT, and Activision officially got my $60 as well. I'm getting both, because the both have songs I really want to play. GH:WT has Hotel California and Crazy Train, as well as a few more, while rock band 2 has Carry on Wayward Son, Pinball Wizard, and AC/DC, which means we may get some more as DLC. They both have Eye of the Tiger, too, which I can't wait to play.
