Rock band 2 review (360,PS3,wii)

Rock band 2 is a very similar game to the games in the Guitar Hero franchise. There are little differences between the two franchises.

Good things about rock band 2:
Hundreds of downloads spanning over many genres of music
Great starting setlist with hits like Battery by Metallica and Give it away by Red Hot Chili Peppers
The graphics/art style are great. I like the use of different colour schemes and camera effects
The guitar, vocals and drums are mapped excellently.
The game features many genres of music
You can copy over songs from rock band 1(this adds even more songs to the set-list)
The band bundle is quite cheap now
The best party game out there. Great 4 player co-op
Online multi-player is top notch
Ideal for any age group

Things I didn't like about rock band 2
The bass guitar is a lot more challenging and fun to play in the guitar hero games
The drums are known to break (I have had 4 foot pedals)
Some songs dont get put over from rock band 1 (Paranoid by Black Sabbath Run to the hills by Iron Maiden and Enter Sandman by Metallica)
A lot of songs on the setlist don't get played (depends on your music taste)
The career can get quite boring but it is needed to unlock all the songs unlike the newer guitar hero and rock band games where all the songs are unlocked from the start

I would give this game a buy, its a must have on any system, the best version of rock band out at the moment, a must have for Christmas, if you want to play with 4 friends but don't want to have to unlock all the songs use this cheat in the cheat menu (Red, Yellow, Blue, Red(2), Blue(2), Red, Yellow, Blue)

This game is excellent and great fun.
BUY IT NOW!!!


this review is part of the group ATP reviews. ( me, black sabbath370 and static man 2)
hope you guys enjoy

Thing is that the last part talking about using the cheat, if you use it you can't play online.

I would suggest the Wii version of GH5 over RB2, being as it so user-friendly.

Im confused

The game features many genres of music

A lot of songs on the setlist don't get played (depends on your music taste)

well how is it good that it has a lot of songs then bad because you only play your type of genre?

its a good thing that the game features and spans across many differant genres. but it can be a bad thing as if you dont like a certain genre then you arnt gonna play it are you.
