5.0 out of 5 stars switched from Guitar Hero to Rock Band 2, haven't looked back since., November 4, 2008
By A. Vittini (Maryland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
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!

5.0 out of 5 stars CAN 2 BE BETTER THAN THE FIRST ONE?, October 27, 2008
By J. Hall "Big John" (Rawlins, WY USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
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.

You Will Be Happy Choosing Bock Band 2...

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Game, November 18, 2008
By Brandon Flynn (Georgia USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
Rock Band 2 is a great game. They didn't change the game dramatically, just added a few enhancements. There is only one thing I don't like about the game itself and that is that you have to constantly play songs over and over and over just to unlock other songs. It's not a bad thing, but why must I keep breezing through a song many times to get every track unlocked? It's just a little annoyance at some times. But overall, it is a very great, solid game that fits in songs well with a very diverse audience appeal.
