I ,personally, think GH3 willdo and be betterjust because of its already established fan base and cheaper price. Both games will be excellent though. Very tough question too, if you ask me. What do youthink?

It's really hard to say. I like the concept of Rock Band, but, to have real fun with it you need all instruments manned at once. Due to that reason, I feel GH3 will do better in terms of sale, but as for better music to be released for each, I'm going with Rock Band. They are going to have music and albums released that people would have never thought of for this game. They are working with some legendary rockers to come up with albums and tracks to release for this game in the coming future.

gameplay wise i have a feelin it will be rockband as you can play songs over and over as a different "band" member(guitarist,basist,singer,drummer)

sales wise(what really matters) guitar hero 3 will do much better simply due to the price

GH3 will probably sell better, but Rock Band will probably make as much as if not more money.

Guitar Hero is an established franchise and has a lower price point, so I imagine it will sell better.

Yeah, GH3 will probably sell better, while Rock Band should really take off once peripherals are separately available and once whole albums start getting released.

Just based on the price GH3 will do better. It also has the advantage of name recognition. Frankly I think Rock Band is going to be hurt a bit too by its overly generic name. Sure, people in here who keep up with game updates and do research on games won't care, but for the more casual audience that made Guitar Hero so successful I could see a large portion of them dismissing the game because of a name that doesn't generate much interest.

Rock Band's just too expensive to sell as many copies at Guitar Hero III. And like you said, it already has the name people recognize. Maybe Guitar Hero III will see more competition once you can buy Rock Band with just one of the intsruments instead of all three.

I think that GH3 will do because:
Its cheaper.
You can played alone(when you want)
Personally, i will get both but for Rock band, me and 3 friends are putting the money together to get it.
In rock band what is fun is the posibility to play with your friends, but alone it will be just like Guitar Hero. Besides, not all people will gather all the members you need to form a band.

Sorry for the question but I havn't followed either game really. Are the controllers interchangable between the games?
