Product Description
The Suffering for GamecubeMODEL- 19111 VENDOR- MIDWAY FEATURES- The Suffering! The Suffering captures the disturbing and terrifying nature of the horror genre in a compelling third-person action/adventure game set in the mature and gritty world of a maximum-security prison. By alternating periods of tense and terror-filled exploration with frenetic combat sequences The Suffering creates the ultimate experience of terror. In the dark world of The Suffering creatures jump out of shadows fall out of trees and erupt out of the ground attacking the player in the most frightening ways possible. Along with a cast of uniquely hardened criminals and guards you will battle not only the ghoulish apparitions besieging the prison but also the demons of your own forgotten past. The player controls the prisoner Torque a hardened inmate in his late 20s sentenced to die for a murder he may or may not have actually committed. Underneath Torques tough exterior hides a man who is not quite psychologically balanced who fears far more than he would ever admit to. As a side effect of his mental instability Torque has flashbacks to the events from his past throbbing images that depict the events that lead up to the crime for which he was imprisoned. Torque is also subject to black outs where he becomes extremely violent and transforms into a massive monster hell-bent on destruction. Will you solve the mystery of Torques past and survive or fall victim to The Suffering? * 9 gritty and terrifying levels transverse indoor and outdoor terrain and horror lurking in every dark corner. * Amazing character morphing effect - fill your rage meter and transform into a hideous and powerful creature. * Over 10 deadly weapons from the shiv to the flamethrower to help you survive this nightmare. *

YES! Rock Band Two has done it right. This game is easy to navigate through and that makes it so much fun to play. With the downloading of the "key" you now have all the songs from your first Rock Band game, all the songs that you bought and downloaded from the Rock Band Store pluse all the songs that comes with Rock Band Two makes this game the best Guitar Playing that you'll ever find.

the biggest selling points for me were: tracklisting, instrument quality, and downloadable content. I would normally just go and buy the new guitar hero game, but how can i do that when rock band 2 has songs like "Aqualung" by jethro tull and "Spirit in the Sky" by norman greenbaum along with hundreds of other downloadable songs. I've already bought the metallica, oasis, and classic rock track packs!
Instrument quality was the second selling point. Although it's cool looking to have the cymbals ala GH:WT drums, you get the more STABLE bass pedal with Rock Band 2 drums because of how it sits on a horizontal bar. The GH:WT pedal has reportedly slid on uncarpeted floors, or flipped sideways. The RB2 drums, are as SILENT as it can get and they are VERY sturdy.
The last deciding factor for me was the downloadable content. By years end, there will be about 500 downloadable songs on the playstation network. If you like Rush, oasis, megadeth, metallica, blondie, lynyrd skynyrd, etc. then Rock Band 2 is for you. Also, the software itself is just PLAIN FUN! to play through. You unlock songs by earning cash, fans, and hiring staff. The customizability of the characters is also tremendous, to the point where you can change eye colors! I hope this review helps, and don't pass up a fantastic game!

In case it was still in doubt, your RB1 instruments will all work with RB2 and they work well! Not to mention my GH:WT instruments all work with RB2 and work well!
I own both GH:WT and RB2 and RockBand 2 wins round 1 and here is why:
- amount of songs I can play is double on RB2: I usually play when friends come over and time and time again we choose RB2 simply b/c you can play and pick from soo many more songs with the inclusion of all my RB1 songs and downloadable content as well. GH:WT makes you re-insert any old GH disc if you want to play songs from previous discs.
- song search criteria in RB2 is way better: not only can you search for songs by title, artist or difficulty but now RB2 also allows you to search for songs by decade(70s, 80s, etc) and genre(alternative, classic rock, etc.) Very polished and easy to find any song from the 100s you might have. GH:WT only has one option and that is by song title.
- ability to save band members: since i usually play when friends are over the ability to "save" my beginner band members is crucial since a lot of times they are just learning how to play and want to have fun with it. GH:WT will automatically fail the whole band out if one band member fails...there is no option to change this. This is not very good when friend or family are over and want to just have fun playing with you.
- RB2 has drum solo sections and song ending solos which are fun: to achieve starpower on drums in RB2 you simply hit the last note of randomly inserted drum solo sections...which i enjoy!! You can go wild during the solo sections and do whatever you want as long as you hit the last note. GH:WT has no designated drum solo sections or song ending band solo sections. In addition GH:WT makes you hit the two symbals(two center drum pads) to trigger starpower. It might be me but it is nearly impossible to pull this off in the middle of a fast paced song.
- RB2 has ps3 trophies and GW:WT does not! Rock Band 2 offers about 40 ps3 trophies to unlock via challenges and GH:WT offers none =/
When it comes down to it both RB2 and GH:WT are very similar and both work as advertised however after months of owning both the winner goes to the one I play almost exclusively now for the reasons i have listed above. Cheers for RB2 continuing to add to my music collection.
