They never bothered to develop a fan base and cater to it.Deadstar said:

On just guitar I will give you that much. But Rock Band does have more variety. I am just in awe at how far the GH franchise has fallen year after year. They have tweaked the engine each time, but it is still too loose. The art style gets worse and worse, and now this transformations crap.Snowman said:Love this game. It's like Rock Band but with loads more songs that are actually fun to play on guitar
They have been pulling out the stops of getting some huge and highly requested songs in the games (2112), but the gameplay engine and style of it just left too big of a sour taste in my mouth since World Tour. There are some very good gameplay features and tweaks they have, such as adjustable hyper speed and drop in/drop out gameplay though.
I am sad that the quality of the games and the milking of it has kinda drained the genre of its momentum, but also kinda glad it has as it has made it easier for me to keep up with only one game. It would be nice for the GH franchise to get back to the caliber of game it was in the first two, so that way RB had some really serious competition in quality, but I think it is too far gone into the Activision machine to be saved.

This is whats up, I'd play RB over GH any day, but WoR easily has the best on disc setlist. I've already played it more than I thought I would.
And you can finally play GH metallica without it playing like a piece of shit, god damn that WT engine was awful.

600 Vs. 2000. On the one hand, yeah that's low. On the other, you can instantly take away RBN stuff on account of nobody even knowing the bands, and then it becomes less awful by comparison.

600 franchise total, or 600 tracks that will actually work in the new game?butter_stick said:

They are still pumping out Guitar Hero games yearly? The last one I played was 4, I bought it for 50 bucks and 2 hours later deeply regretted my purchase ={ I played the heck out of GH3, but they didn't change the interface, char design and etc much and the game just grew plain sick on me :{

I will be getting this game for sure. Better track list IMO, plus an actual career mode. I also really liked the challenges in last years game.

Basically RB was just better at continuous support with the DLC.allegate said:

hella bullets that's true
didn't I read somewhere that you can import GH 5 songs into this game for free? That's pretty cool, I guess.

For me the best parts of GH are quickplay, multiples of instruments, and exclusive songs.
I have 387 songs available in GH6 (plus I think I've got a few more to unlock on the disk) and ~350 available in RB2. I've go some people coming over this weekend to play and we'll start off on GH6 since it is new. With all of the disk imports and the DLC I have I doubt we'll switch over games.
Not that I would mind if they ask to switch over. I'm interested to find out how many DLC songs I have downloaded for RB and never played. After finishing Lego Rock Band and Green Day I've been playing GH5 exclusively for awhile because I was working on the 100 quickplay songs achievement. RB3 will most likely blow me away when I get it because of all the "new" songs I'll have. I have no idea which ones weren't showing up in Lego Rock Band.
Anyone know if they increased the playlist size in GH6? The 100 song limit in GH5 was a pain because I couldn't set up a single playlist with the songs my wife knew well enough to sing.
The game is actually a lot better than World Tour and Guitar Hero 5, especially for expert guitar players. Worth buying for 2112 and the Megadeth stuff alone. Surprisingly Sudden Death is actually not as hard as This Day We Fight, which you play directly before Sudden Death towards the end of quest mode.

The alternatives are playing nothing (worse) or not including the song (worse). The song is a blast to sing and drum. Just think of it as being NO PART on guitar if it bugs you.G.O.O. said:
Or play bass.
I would prefer not including the song, honestly. I expect this game to be (sort of) immersive, and this kind of shit succeeds very well at reminding me I'm playing piano on a toy guitar.
But I guess I'm pissed because I don't have a battery or mic. Yet I'd like songs to be chosen for their balance of all instruments (especially in guitar hero), not because they're popular. I love Bohemian Rhapsody, I love Wish, but both are crappy to play.

I guess RB is at a similar number.ElNarez said:
I thought I wouldn't need anymore Guitar Hero after Guitar Hero 3 and Metallica, but this sounds very good. The song list is big (I don't really use online, so DLC doesn't matter to me) and sounds great. I still think the GH3 engine is the best, but Metallica is close. So how does this game compares to those?

If GH:SH counts, RB Country track pack counts. Alternative distribution methods don't change products existing. As far as the target audience for those track packs (morons without Internet access) are concerned, they're games.thiscoldblack said:

Considering GH:SH has a full 1000 achievement points and the Track Packs have 250, I would say you are completely wrong.
Affeinvasion said:
Also, considering that you can download all the track pack songs individually (or often in packs) as DLC, it makes the Track Packs exactly what they purport to be... track packs.
The only exception there is AC/DC. As such, I consider it a separate band entry like Green Day & Beatles, even though Harmonix probably wouldn't want to count it. Considering there was obviously no effort put into the production of that disc, and that they would have put it up as DLC if AC/DC weren't such backward hicks about digital distribution, I can't say I blame them.

Such a strange argument. It's like saying an XBLA game isn't a game. It's not a slur on RB, GH should copy the track packs thing. It's good value for money and considering I read 6% of console owners downloaded DLC in the last month, it's smart.Affeinvasion said:
