 rock band wii is not worth the [...] July 1, 2008
12 out of 15 found this review helpful
wii really put the "special ed" in rock band special edition. Xbox sold the drum set separately so people with two guitars for guitar hero didnt have to buy another one. wii did the same thing except that you have to buy the rock band guitar to play. GUITAR HERO CONTROLLERS ARE NOT COMPATIBLE WITH ROCK BAND, but they don't bother to tell you that. so even though you already have two guitars from guitar hero and only bought the game and drum set separately, you now have to run out to some walmart and spend $100 to but two more rock band wireless guitars. my suggestion is to wait until october for Guitar Hero: World Tour where they have made the "whole band" experience better than rock band ever could. it will be worth the wait. in the mean time if you really that bored with Guitar Hero III or only being able to play drums and sing with rock band, go ahead and buy Guitar Hero Aerosmith. dont buy rock band wii
 Wii Rock? June 23, 2008

When it comes down to the Nintendo Wii, it has been sad that the past year, the Nintendo mega-system was kept on the sidelines from major music games like Guitar Hero and Rock Band. Although we did see the Guitar Hero III make its way onto the way, many gamers did complain that the songs only stood out in a mono sound, and not easy to comprehend in stereo sound. That shocked a lot of people, but the gameplay still remianed addictive. Now, Rock Band has made its way onto the Nintendo Wii, after being sidelined from the music scene. While Rock Band shined on the Playstation 3 and Xbox 360, the big question is does it really show that it is worth jamming for the Wii, or is this as broken as Axl Rose reforming Guns N' Roses?br /br /Rock Band for the Nintendo Wii, brings in most of the wild action we've seen shine from the PS3 and 360 editions, with the gameplay and songs. While the graphics look great, and bring in the wild appeal we've seen from Guitar Hero III and Rock Band before, not much has really changed to seperate itself to make the Wii really stand out. You stil get the classic songs that were released before like the Rock anthems Bon Jovi's Wanted Dead Or Alive, Metallica's classic Enter Sandman, and the underground hit from R.E.M., Orange Crush. Unfortunately, what makes this edition fall apart for the Wii is the lack of multiplayer action. You can't compete against others players online, as shown in the 360 and PS3 editions, and also you cannot download songs to jam to as extra content. Instead, those downloadable songs that we've played for the 360 and PS3 will be made into seperate Jam Packs discs that will be released starting in July at your local video game store for arouund $29.99 each.br /br /All in all, Rock Band really misses out on so much action and excitement, it really feels like you've bought a mainly broken amplifier for you electric guitar. While the gameplay is more like something you're going to want to rent for the Wii instead, it just misses the mark by so much in the way Wii really want to rock out loud. If there is a sequel, hopefully the people at Harmonix who've made this for the Wii could tweak it up by a longshot so Wii gamers can make it into the big leagues.br /br /Graphics: Bbr /br /Sound: Bbr /br /Track List: C+br /br /Control: Bbr /br /Fun Enjoyement: C 1/2- for solo players; C 1/2+ for multiplayer actionbr /br /Overall: C+
