This game definitely deserves its own thread. Most of the people who knock it have never tried it so they can't really knock it justfully. What's funny is a lot of people who aren't necessarily into rock are the ones that think that way, then when they do actually somehow try it, a lot of em' change their mind. You don't even have to be a big rock fan, or rocker dude stereotype thing, anybody & everybody can love this game. It's that fun and addicting. Still, to this day, I've never tried the guitar. I guess I'm just lazy to try it, but I'm all singing & that's natural to me so not much of a challenge there, oh crap I'm bragging, apologies.., but the drums are fun as heII.
Another brilliant idea that's being talked about for the future of this game is finding a way to implement a feature where you can somehow make your own music and even send it out to the public via internet/xbox live and have it availabe. That's got soooo much potential, it's astonoshing. Think about all of the many possiblities. It's kinda like when people make their myspace music pages with their own music to get their stuff out & what not.. but of course not only can you be original, but you can do covers, anything you want.. you can create.. BUT all that being said, as cool as a lot of that would sound, it's not as easy as it sounds they say, but they are trying to the best of their capabilities to find a way to get it done sometime in the future.
Also, rumors confrim they will most likely be adding a new instrument of which will be a keyboard for a Rock Band sometime in the future. That sounds awesome to me. Tons of keyboard use in a lot of different kinds of Rock, but what excites me most off the top of my head is, THE DOORS. Mwahahaha.. awesome.

That is absolutely brilliant and FANTASTIC.Ah, but as great as this list may be, you love your old RB1 tracks and just don't want to give them up. Fear not. All downloadable content will work with Rock Band 2 and gamers can export tracks from Rock Band 1 to RB2. That's right -- from day one you can bring all RB1 tracks into RB2 to compliment your DLC as long as you own a PS3 or an Xbox 360 with a hard drive.
And there's more. Harmonix actually wanted to toss in 100 tracks total for the disk, but couldn't get them all in one time to ship for Xbox 360 by September. So this fall, MTV is releasing an additional 20 downloadable master tracks... for free. By year's end this will mean RB fans will have access to more than 500 songs.
rock band 1 instruments work with guitar hero world tour(360)

guitar hero world tour instruments are gonna be compatible with rock band 2(360)
I've never actually played Guitar Hero, but I hear they're starting to try & make it more like rockband where in it's more than just guitar and that intrigues me deeply.
