 Hmmm November 16, 2008

Well, this game has awful graphics. They look like Pacman! Awful. Very outdated. And the set list has too much oldies crap like Steely Dan, Fleetwood Mac, Steve Miller Band, etc... However, it does have some awesome bands like Disturbed, System Of A Down, Linkin Park and Paramore. I can't believe they have some old Metallica sons on it! They should've included "Some Kind Of Monster" from St. Anger instead. Any why no Limp Bizkit?!
SET LIST SUCKS!! November 5, 2008

Why the heck are the set lists on these music games from the 60's, 70's, and 80's? 80's sure but barely any music is from the 90's or 2000's. I like playing these games but I don't think I'm alone when I say we need more recent music to play to. I know I'll never get my ALL metal Rock Band or GH with bands like Devildriver, Sepultura, Lamb Of God, Machine Head, etc., etc., but c'mon; Allman Bros., Elvis Costello, Fleetwood Mac, Los Lobos, Journey??!! Really!!?? What's up with the oldies? They're not really "Rock legends" to anyone under 30 years old. I'm fine with bands like 311, Filter, Disturbed, and even Blink 182 but there should be more of the "now" music. It seems that the newer these games get, the older the set lists get. If the set list was actual music I would listen to or at least listened to in the last ten years, my rating would be higher. I think instead of the up to date titles being few and far between, it should be the other way around. Basically, I found myself looking forward to the end of most songs rather then enjoying them because they were just plain boring. The only reason I'm giving this 2 stars instead of 1 is because of the instruments themselves. They're fun to play but only until you get sick of playing your 56 year old fathers favorite music. (P.S. By the way, yes I know Machine Head and Lamb Of God have been in GH, I just have a dream of an ALL METAL HEAD version someday.)
 more of the same, but better November 3, 2008
this sequel of the original game features a shift toward songs from the classic rock genre. world tour feature also allows closer interaction between participants. if you like the original rock band, you won't be disappointed. highly recommend.
 Rock Band 2 November 2, 2008
Great new game, should have better songs selection & sucks that there are some songs on this game that are also on guitar hero world tour!!!!
Better than the first, but not quite as much new as I'd hoped. November 2, 2008
They fixed all the problems with Rock Band and made it better, but the character system hasn't changed much at all, and some other things in the game don't look like they've had much done to them. It was still worth the buy, especially for those who don't own RB1. The new instruments are also much, much better.
