GH2 vs. GH3

Which one do you think is better, I was planning on getting either one( for 360), but lots of my friends prefer GH2, but many say GH3 has a better track selection, but is a lot harder. What do you think?

I think whichever you play first, you will like more.

I started with 3 and didn't like 2 when I bought it later. But my main issue with #2 is the fact almost all of the songs are by cover bands, and most are covered poorly. The tracks by the original artists in #3 are awesome.

they are both the exact same thing... i soppuse in gameplay matters

rock band!!!

i just bought it yesterday, and although it took some time to get used to the drums, it was awesome!!! im not the type of person to sing in front of others, but even the vocals on rock band was a ton of fun.

i havent played gh3 so i dont really know what to say about your original question.

Guitar hero 2 has alot better note charts. hands down, but i definatley prefer the tracklist of gh 3, honestly man just buckle down and buy one

I am a n00b to both games but I prefer Guitar Hero 2 simply because the difficulty ramps up more manageably and I like the songs better. I think GH3 track list is mostly garbage and they seem to expect you to be good at the game already even on the easy setting.

Hm... it seems like a tie. Rock Band is a tad too expesnive, and I saw a brand new GH3 for $90, I might get it. I prefer the Les Paul, and I might buy 2 seperate, if it's cheap.

you should save up and get rock band, it's better than all three guitar heroes combinedgandalfthekool

Rock Band is really only good if you have friends who can play at your house on a regular basis so they get good enough for the world tour. The seperate career for the instruments aren't really challenging compared to the GH series. Bottom line, I find GH much more fun with a single buddy or by yourself, but Rock Band is a better party game.

I don't see why people say GH2 is easier. Go play Raining Blood for me and tell me its easier than anything from GH2 other than Jordan, Six, and a song from the last setlist (depending on the player). I've beaten Jordan more than Raining Blood, and thats saying something.

guitar hero 3 has a better set list than 2, but the tradeoff is that it is more difficult, especially at expert, it's not a really big difference at easy and medium, but when u get up there it is much harder. u can always buy the gh3 game with the controller( its way better than the gh2 controller) then buy gh2 on its own so that way u have both

GHIII was better for the following reasons.

Better songs

More master tracks

Online play

Better graphics

Harder Difficulty (GHII was just too easy for me on expert, and i like more of a challenge)

If you find easy even remotely diffucult, i agree that you are a huge n00b.

I know that one isn't true, since I bought gh1 first and I hate the track selection in it.

But as for this brawl, as the tc said, I believe gh3 has a better track selection, but gh2 is more fun to play. Mostly because the notes aren't random. Like the dragonforce intro on extreme, doesn't even have the electric guitar part in it. Only the acoustic. Then on some other songs, notes are just random sometimes.
