Rockband Wii - Will This Be The Blowout Item This Holiday Season?

By | November 17, 2008

Guitar Hero Wii has given countless non-rockers the chance to feel like a rock star over and over again. This game and other music-game playing gadgetry have become so overwhelmingly popular of late. If you have not played before, you may be wondering why they are so popular. If you are one of the lucky ones who have played before, then you already understand why.

Guitar Hero Wii and its long time competitor, Rockband Wii, allow us to pick a guitar and pretend that we are rocking out like Slash fro Guns N Roses. We get to play hard, rock out with friends, and enjoy the adulation of a simulated audience, all without the years of study, practice and devotion of real rock stars.

The games have increased further in popularity as each of the guitar game franchises try to best each other and become the coolest game. With numerous added features, we can now not only play the guitar, but also play the drums, sing on the microphone, create our own rock star characters, modify the instruments, download additional music and even record our own music.

Reviews are mixed about which franchise is the most awesome, but it seems that Guitar Hero Wii has the edge. Most people seem to prefer the bigger list of songs that are shipped with Guitar Hero. The Guitar Hero playlist has over 80 song titles from stars like Billy Idol, Coldplay, Paul McCartney, Michael Jackson, and Van Halen.

Guitar Hero has guitars and drums that are more realistic. While they may not look the best, they are heavier and therefore feel more like a real guitar than what is offered by Rockband. Reportedly the accessories the come with Guitar Hero are much sturdier and do not break as easily.

Hugely popular are the video games in the Guitar Hero series (e.g., Guitar Hero Xbox 360, Guitar Hero Wii). The product reviews for these games tends to be higher. Small wonder: Guitar Hero makes an everyday guy or everyday gal feel like a big-time rock star. It is simply a blast to gather around in front of the console and rock out with your friends!
