I was recently looking into buying Rock Band through Amazon for the Wii. As always, Amazon had great prices but I wanted to look into Rock Band a little more.Turns out Rock Band for the Wii isn't all what its cut out to be. Look at these three reasons why:
1)You can't play online like Guitar Hero 3 could.
2)No downloadable content whatsoever.
3)The Guitar Hero 3 controller isn't compatible with the game.
The third reason is what really got me. I already have Guitar Hero 3, so upon buying Rock Band, my GH3 controller will be rendered useless. I'll only be able to get three people playing instead of four(which is the best way).
The first two reasons didn't bother me too much, seeing how I've lived with Dial-up for such a long time.
But all is not lost. I'll be waiting for Rock Band 2, which comes around the holiday season. I'll have to look into what it can do and see if it resolves those three reasons.
If the problems for the Wii Rock Band series continue, you can bet I'll be putting my money back into the Guitar Hero series.
