 Best guitar game since Guitar Hero 1. December 17, 2007
5 out of 8 found this review helpful
If you enjoyed Guitar Hero I and were let down by GH2, Rock the 80s and GH3's song list, buy this game now! With songs that people other than "stoners" listen to, how could this game not be a smashing success? I was told by a guy at Game Crazy that this is less fun to play by yourself than Guitar Hero is, but I disagree with that assessment as well. It is quite fun and in some ways more difficult than Guitar Hero. Try it, you'll like it! I can confirm also that GH guitars work perfectly.
 Glitches Get Worse With Time December 16, 2007

I ran into similar problems as the first reviewer. The game starts the freeze up and stop altogether after a few hours of gameplay. I too, own one of the thicker PS2 models, but I encountered these glitches with minimal strain on the playstation (i.e. 1 controller, period). Please note that this is not a complaint about the actual gameplay; In fact, I think it is an excellent culmination of the Guitar Hero/Singing type games. But there are several problem with this version of the game itself, and I strongly urge that you try it out on your own Playstation before buying the game.
The other problem is that the glitches seems to worsen with time. The game ran completely error-free for the first few days, and with the exception of a few loading delays, everything was peachy. But after the first glitch, things only got worse. Instead of stopping entirely, the audio and the video began to unallign, and then the music itself started skipping/choking. Now, I can't play a song once through without running into related problems.
PS3 + XBOX360 yes, but PS2 no....... December 13, 2007

First, I'll give you some background info to the problems.
I already owned Guitar Hero 2+3 and Singstar Amped so I decided to purchase Rock Band minus the drums and stupid guitar(the strum bar feels like wiggling a stiff tongue from a shoe!!!).
Anyways, everything works great on it until extended play.....after playing somewhere between 15-20 songs on band mode, it starts to glitch REALLY BAD! Songs will skip/dead stop!! I have the third or fourth generation of PS2's, so it's still one of the old thick ones, but not the glitchy first couple releases. Either way, the only way I've found to make it stop is to power down the PS2 by the switch, unplug the power cord, wait for about 1 minute, then reboot.
I think the PS2's memory and processor just struggles too hard to accommodate all the peripherals. Now this could be cause by running both the controller plugs, USB hub, and a Multitap, but I think they should've worked those glitches out, or not released it for PS2.......
IF YOU WANT THE PS2 ONE, TRY IT FIRST FOR A WHILE TO SEE FOR YOURSELF!!!!! Just consider all the options and save yourself some trouble.
