i know.
the drums are cool, but since i actually play drums sometimes I have to close my eyes and just play instead of trying to read the scrolly thing.
and the guitar that came with rock band sucks fucking ass, I just used a GH controller.
but the songs and graphics in rock band are better than GH

as corny as all this is, those games are without a doubt, fun as hell... especially after a 6pack or two.
the drums are a nice way for me to be able to bang on shit since i can't have my drums in my apartment 
drum battles anyone? r0ckteh40oz

OMFG that game is so fucking fun. I wasn't a fan of guitar hero at ALL but this game is sick. At one point we had 2 guitars, drums, and the singing going. That game is definitely worth the $170. I'll have to admit though, when I first walked into his living room and saw everyone setup hitting their instruments, going "click click click click" i started laughing my ass off.

i heard them talking about that rock band thing on the radio.
people can form bands online and have battle of the bands.
they started talking about LSD and lead singer disease making its way into the game and band fights. it was pretty funny.
personally, i don't have the money to buy fake instruments and video games. if i did, i'd probably still buy the guitar heros.

I bet you've never played either of them.
I hear pretentious douchebags say the same shit all the time until they actually play the game.

I think it is funny to watch very good muscians struggle with playing the game and very good game players struggling with real instruments. There is some correlation between the two, but the drums must be worth the investment methinks, due to a high aspect of parallels to the real drums.

the drums on expert are fucking ridiculous! some songs are feasible, but most just rock my socks... the damn irregular timing of the bass kicks gets me. . i could never get over this on a real kit either..

the singing is basically judged by your pitch, and there are different difficulty levels of pitch sensitivity also.. when you're playing the game with the singer on your console, their voice will travel back out of the speakers but if you're playing online with someone you can only see the words that they complete or fail.. you can't actually hear their voice.. there is a "freestyle" mode that comes up where its basically your chance to spit some off the wall shit in front of friends for points. all in all, this game is pretty fun.. especially with some beer and a b0ng0r or two.
there is way too many songs to list, google the song list.. you will also be able to download A TON of songs in the future if you feel like paying for them.

The next time you sit around and waste hours of your life playing that piece of shit game, videotape yourself and look at how lame you look.
