The new guitar is all fancy-fied compared to the GH3 guitar, apparently. Also, you can use the Rock Band drums and mic, and since the RB guitar is shite, it's technically possible that a non-GH3 owner who has RB would want to purchase the GHWT package with the apparently better guitar.

Actually, I might be in for this package if the guitar is decent, as my GH3 wireless guitar has been on the fritz lately, yet I have no desire to purchase more plastic drums.

Well, I can't say yet, since I haven't seen the game yet, but until now, GH has always just been about the guitar. It's to be expected that when they open up to other instruments, they'd still make the guitar their priority.

Rock Band was a new franchise, and it just so happened that they made the drums the most involved in comparison to the other instruments.

I would hope that they'd eventually release the drums on their own.

The GH:WT guitar has that slide business on the neck now.

"The new guitar is all fancy-fied compared to the GH3 guitar, apparently."

And still fails compared to the RB2 guitar. The GH guitars have always felt cheap and small. The RB guitar feels solid and more like a real guitar, and the RB2 one just improves on it.

Sorry, dude, there are two clear schools of thought on that... I LOATHE the RB guitar. It feels like a piece of garbage, the strum bar feels like fiddling with a rubber band and I can never tell if the buttons are even registering. I want to know when I'm hitting stuff. I used the RB guitar like twice and immediately switched back to my GH3 wireless one.

I've talked to friends who are about split down the middle on the issue, so I'd gladly replace my aging GH3 "axe" with the world tour one if it's got the same "feel" to the buttons and strum bar.

As far as drums, I know there are people who hate the RB drums, but personally I don't mind them at all. It's all a matter of preference; maybe I just feel more at home with the GH-style guitar because I've been using their hardware for so long.

i totally agree. Rock Band 2 has blown me away. i was thinking about getting GH, but there's only like 2 great songs that arent on RB2, but then either RB2 has the rest of the songs, or the songs on GH are wayy worse.

I'll sell you mine... haven't touched it since RB2 :)

(JK, I will crave Hydro Thunder for the rest of my life)

damn right

I try GH3 and did not like it. I was almost going to buy it but thanks to a friend that just got one. I pass

Why? lets see....
-Cheap ass plastic
-Finger Cramps from hell
-Tilter is too sensitive

So hell with this. I going to try Rock Band 1 or 2 next.

Why blow $100 bucks on a plastic guitar (god knows how long it will last) and game when you can get real cheap one just the guitar itself
