Guitar Hero 5 is better in every way, except Rock Band 2 has a lot more and a lot better DLC.

Rock Band 2.

Better tracks, better online community, better multiplayer, a very lengthy single player, and TONS of DLC! (600+ songs) It is the LAST music game you'll ever need. I've played every GH and RB game, and this is the only one I still spend time with on a regular basis.

Guitar Hero 5 was the worst of the series IMO. Terrible track list, even worse DLC. Only advantage is "disc transfer", but then again that requires going out and buying a new copy of another old Guitar Hero game. Plus, GH5 desecrated Johnny Cash and Kurt Cobain... How can you support that? Most of the good tracks from GH are availible on the RB2 store anyways...

Defintly GH5 on Wii.
Why?

pros GH5

  • Partyplay Mode (it's just easy to use, even my girlfriend can handle the setup)
  • choose any combination of instruments (4 guitars or 2 drums and 2 mics, etc.)
  • Direct Streaming from SDHC Cards (short loadtimes)
  • Import of songs from GHWT (in Europe just rent this one, cause the import just needs a save file), GHSH and Band Hero (the latter two, need a unique code for import)

pros RB2

  • bigger DLC Library

cons RB2

  • no SDHC support, just SD (correct me if I'm wrong here, but it certainly doesn't stream)
  • no imports on Wii

From my point of view, that only thing that RB2 has going on Wii is the far better DLC library, no point dening that. But if you're not planning to import dozens of songs (and that will easily cost as much as buying more discs to import to GH5, which you can sell after the import) GH5 just offers the best package.

You should also take into account which disc songs are on either version and which you like most. The better GH5 platform won't help you, if you just like 5 songs.

@Stryker You are correct, RB2 doesn't support SDHC, and with its huge library, it is the one game that should.

@nr.09: if you'd like to get more recommendations, please use the Wii recommendations thread. You may also want to try asking in the universal recommendations thread, or checking to see if anyone's already asked your question there. :3
