You do realize that some people actually like that sort of music?

I do not like country music, but I know why people buy Rockband Country Track Pack.

It's definitely easy but then again, that's the point of the game. I'm still waiting for the promised import key to put it in GH5. I'll have nearer 250 songs at that point and with still about 220 in RB. That's a lot o' songs.

I think Band Hero was aimed at a younger crowd as more of a family game (hence the heavy censoring of the lyrics, based on the video of Honky Tonk Woman I watched).

So I think they were picking a lot of more pop-ish songs, which aren't the most challenging, musically.

From everything that I've read, it should be available from the PSN this Thursday.

Good news. That way, I can play a playlist with Taylor Swift then Children of Bodom...syche, syche, syche.

Yea I'll enjoy it. It was either this or dj hero. But I have a feeling that it's gonna price drop soon, and with all the mixed reviews it wouldn't have been a good blind buy. The mixer / turntable felt a lil cheap to me to. But what sucks is it (to me ) has the best setlist of any band game out.

As for band hero. I don't think they made Taylor swifts eyes right. In game they look normal

Burn!

I think it's also to compete with Lego Rock Band, as it too aims for the younger crowd with a milder setlist than the other Rock Band titles.

But don't get me wrong; I still think GH5 is interesting, and Band Hero is a worth expansion pack built on the GH5 engine. However, I don't think a bundle would've sufficed.
