…i still don’t know what to choose…do u suggest me GH3 or RB?
November 10th, 2007 at 12:38 pm
well GH3 has more tracks and is less expensive and it rocks….RB has less tracks, is more expensive but will have more rock promise with the additional accessories.
hard to tell until i play RB retail.

Wow, this song list is terrible, the only song I would listen to normally is Run To The Hills. I’m going for GH III. My god, Smashing Pumpkins, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Fallout Boy? Whatever happened to to good music (Metal).
PS> I would also listen to Blue Oyster Cult and Black Sabbath.
