Quoted from Sandamnit:
Rock Band is only fun for the drums anyway. Guitar Hero is, overall, an immense waste of time and money, though I'll admit that it can be fun on occasion for a short period of time, usually only when it involves a small group of people just hanging out. In terms of sitting down and obsessively playing it for hours on end by yourself... lawl.
Since you're learning to play the real guitar, you should seriously spend the time you'd otherwise spend playing the game to better hone your skills at the real guitar. It doesn't necessarily provide the immediate satisfaction the games does (OMG SWEET I COMPLETED IT ON EXPERT WITH 90% OMG), but in the long run, subpar skill on a real guitar is greater than expert skill at Guitar Hero.
Rockband drums are a blast. I can actually play the drums, which explains why I could beat stuff on expert out of the box. I haven't sat around and obsessively played for hours on end.
I agree with Jeff though man. If you own and are learning to play a real guitar, you should do that and not waste time with Rockband.
“You know the world is going crazy when the best rapper is a white guy, the best golfer is a black guy, the tallest guy in the NBA is Chinese, the Swiss hold the America's Cup, France is accusing the U.S. of arrogance, Germany doesn't want to go to war, and the three most powerful men in America are named 'Bush', 'Dick', and 'Colon.' Need I say more?” - Chris Rock
