Guitar Hero and Rock Band

I picked up Rock Band this last weekend, just the game.  I love it.  Over Christmas I played Guitar Hero with my sister.  She liked it and she came up with the same conclusion I did, GH2 is better than GH3 yet the songs in GH3 are better.  GH2 is not so difficult that you have fun playing it.  GH3 is more difficult and requires much more concentration.  I do not find that as much fun.  I can't relax and groove with the songs like in GH2.

I  heard Rock Band was similar to GH2 in difficulty.  I picked it up last weekend and now I don't know if I will touch Guitar Hero again.  Rock Band is almost perfect.  The note mapping and song selection is awesome.  The downloadable songs are great.  The only thing I wish Rock Band had was a play comparison at the end of the song like GH2.

I like the game mechanics of Rock Band.  Having an obvious solo section is cool.  The rock ending is neat, wish I had the les paul for that.  The hammer on and pull offs are a little harder to recognize though.  I also like hte presentation of Rock Band.  The globe to navigate cities.  During the song it feels like you are at a concert more than Guitar Hero.
