For a guitar hero its right up there with the other titles but as a PS3 game in general its ok. It has music thats already been in Guitar Hero but there was a couple of new bands as well. I dont think the price is worth the number of tracks that you get. They might want to start thinking about doing more downloadable content instead of releasing more band specific games. I just want the new songs not a new game.
What's great about it: Free, some new bands
What's not so great: Some of the same songs from other games, no real new features

Could not have asked for a better cast . This was very strong season only beaten by the second season. Definitely a must own for anyone that is lacking some great tv on dvd.

The user interface is greatly improved over the original especially the abilitly to change instruments without having to exit out of the tour. Its great to be able to do the tour mode without having to have another person or play 2 instruments at the same time. The song selection has been greatly improved especially being able to play dlc and exporting songs from the first game. The only problem I have is with the Guitar Hero drums not being compatible yet. I would have bought the special edition but I didnt think the drums were really improved enough to constitute having a third drum set. This game is totally worth the money.
What's great about it: the user interface, the exportation of rock band 1 songs, the dlc
What's not so great: guitar hero world tour drums not compatible (yet)
