Just wanted to throw in an important fact. Don't buy the GAME ONLY unless you already own a GH guitar. I went and bought both GH 2&3 thinking I could use my Rock band Guitar. Your RB guitar will not work with any GH games!!! Now I have to spend more money for a guitar, when I tried to save money. Great Game BTW!
Better songs than GH3

Guitar Hero 3, in my opinion has a better interface and better visuals than 2. 2, however, has much better songs. But both games are great and I would recommend them to anyone.
If you haven't played this game, it's basically like Dance Dance Revolution with a guitar and good music. It also offers skill ranges for all players. It's a fun game to play at parties and it's incredibly addictive. I highly recommend.

Already had it for PS2 but I wanted to get it for 360 for the one song pack that had Trivium, Atreyu, and Protest the Hero in it. No new additional songs to the 360 version from the PS2 version were astounding. The new songs just replace songs from the PS2 version. There's nothing bad about the Guitar Hero series except maybe for the 80's and the Aerosmith installments.

Guitar Hero 2 is pretty good the only downfall is that i wish a majority of the songs were done by the original band. Other than that the songs are still fun to play and the difficulty is still pretty intense.
Best GH game so far

I love Guitar Hero Games, and I have been a fan ever since I got GH3 for Christmas. I recently bought GH2 for XBOX 360 (I have an XBOX 360 now), and I love it even better. Now here are the characters:
JOHNNY NAPALM: My favorite character. He's in his 20s and he has a mohawk. It's awesome just to see him rock out on stage.
JUDY NAILS
LARS UMULAT
XAVIER STONE
GRIM RIPPER
IZZY SPARKS
PANDORA
EDDIE KNOX
and CASEY LYNCH.

"Surrender" - Cheap Trick
"Possum Kingdom" - Toadies (1994)
"Heart-Shaped Box" - Nirvana

This shouldn't fall under the category of Video "game". It takes so much more hand/eye coordnation than the average video game. Watching the competitions is almost as much fun as being at a live concert. Beieve me, when the song is done, the players are sweating. So this is a great video game that gets the kids up off the couch and moving, even if they don't know it!
