So, Guitar Hero III is still releasing more downloadable songs. It's quite sad that more people don't have the cash to upgrade to Rock Band so they can have four parts to play in each song, rather than two. Especially since they're more expensive on GH3. Five hundred Microsoft points will buy you a GH3 3-pack of songs. 3-packs on Rock Band = 440 points. Even individual songs for Rock Band mostly cost 160 points (three ala carte songs = 480 points), some are even listed for 80 points.
So is having "Peace of Mind" by Boston or Journey's "Any Way You Want It" worth it ("Juke Box Hero" is already available for Rock Band)? Not to have to sit there and watch Freaky McBigMouth sing it without me, or the animatronic drummer spaz-play yet another song.
If they want to continue overcharging for lesser content, they should begin including extras with the songs: New costumes, new arenas, maybe even new characters (or bring back Pandora, perhaps? She's already designed, just give her some new clothes.).
Convince your friends and neighbors to plunk down the cash for Rock Band, and leave the price-gouging Guitar Hero series behind. The only time they'll realize people won't pay for over-priced merchandise, is when people stop paying for over-priced merchandise.
