Rock Band 2 blows the 1st one away. The Songs are a lot better and the difficulty is a lot harder. Me and my roommates play it when ever we can. The only downside is that the song choices aren't the greatest but better then the first. By this I mean I wish that there were more common songs that the average person will know. Understand that it is "Rock" band but there are a lot of heavy metal rock songs. Maybe they could have converted some hip hop songs and just get some more common songs.. All in all, it is GREAT AND WORTH THE BUY!
What's great about it: The replay value is awesome, great for parties
