    No guitar skills required at all...I've played for 6-7 years now and my brother who is a drummer kicks my ass in it all the time (our neighbors have both games...one plays guitar and he kicks all of ours asses but thats just because he plays all of the time). I'd go with Rock Band just because its basically Guitar Hero on steroids. Get the guitar hero guitar though because it works for both games in case you want to get both. Also, you can sing and play guitar if you know the song by heart in Rock Band. I've only played Rock Band once, but I get bored easily with Guitar Hero and would much rather be playing real guitar.

    Gilberto, its basically like retarded guitar, with 5 frets, a whammy bar, and one string (that multiple notes can be played on at one time) and you have to push the buttons and press the "string" at the same time.

    Its ok no story or bosses or encores like GH3 but similar set up you play 5 songs when they are done you go somewhere else and get 5 more the drums are so much fun an them all day . I didnt get the guitar thinking the GH3 one would work but it doesnt on ps3 .

    They sounds stupid but turns out to be really fun its like karaoke for blokes , using the guitar you have to press the right button and strum as the colours scroll down the screen.

    No skills needed allthough having played a little will help with holding it right and getting hands to do different things,having played a lot of real guitar is probibly a hiderence in the game

    Its the sound track thats brilliant loads of good songs that you would listen to on there own but now your playing it with out wasting time learning an instrument

    In guitar hero you and a mate can team up in rock band you can have 4 in the band ( drummer guitar bass singer ) great for drunken messing .

    While looking for a vid of the game i found this does nothing for the image of the game but its so funny o had to post it
