If you're always going to be playing with a group, it sounds like Rock Band is the way to go, but if you're going to end up playing solo a fair amount, Guitar Hero III might be the better way to go. Also, how hardcore are you? It sounds like Rock Band's difficulty is a bit lower. From what I read, it sounds like both games are a lot of fun, though. I had Guitar Hero II, but I didn't have the patience for it at the time, and I gave it to my sister. I figured I'd get III if I got the itch to try it again.

Just a quick post regarding my dead XBox:

MS quoted us 4-6 weeks to repair my 360 when I got the "red ring of death" last week. Yesterday, I received a brand new XBOX (manufactured 11/6/07) with a note apologizing for any inconvenience.

People can bash MS left and right; I just thought I'd throw this out there. Mistakes in manufacturing and design can happen.... I think MS did wonderfully in handling the problem.

The one and only time I had a hardware issue with a Microsoft product was rectified right away with a new product sent out and they never requested the original back. They do seem to understand customer service.

both time i suffered from RROD it took nearly 3 weeks to get my console.

Mark, did you have an HDMI box originally, and did the send you an HDMI box for a replacement?

People who bash MS typically do it for their operating system. And we all know that gamers are all crybabies who blog loudly.
