A perfect sequel in every way. Bigger setlist, harder songs, more gameplay options, better character customization, an incredible career mode with more replayability than ever before, and ALL OF YOUR DLC SONGS FROM THE FIRST GAME CARRIED OVER. You could even import most of Rock Band 1's on-disc songs into Rock Band 2 for a modest $5 fee. An absolute triumph from the music game golden age, and one of the best games of the seventh console generation.
All achievements
This was the pinnacle of plastic instrument games.
incrível, do começo ao fim, porém...
o modo tour é muito simples pra quantidade de música no jogo.
mas no todo resto é incrível, zero defeitos.
a setlist é sensacional, com apenas algumas músicas que eu definitivamente não gosto (mas é pessoal), mas não existe uma setlist com Beastie Boys que seja ruim.

i grew up with this game but i can't get the accessories working, but this is how i grew up listening to a lot of classic songs
The second best rock band
Peak peak peak peak peak. RB3 definitely is more of an evolution and has much more options than 2 but at the same time I think 2 feels like a more cohesive package, plus has a better on disc song list and I like the grungier aesthetic compared to 3. So many good memories playing this game as a kid and screaming That's What You Get into the mic in a suburban finished basement.
Significantly better than the first with an incredible set list. I still wish I could go back sometimes.
Ah.. o Rock Band 2..
Não tenho uma opinião tão formada sobre Rock Band 2, o jogo é full diversão e demonstra uma evolução boa do Rock band 1, porém o tempo de acerto nele ainda é punitivo tanto quanto o primeiro e eu diria que até pior.. pra mim o ponto positivo em RB2 é que agora eles colocaram uma setlist padrão melhorzinha, ainda continua meio fraca mas da pra dar aquela passada de pano.
Seu modo história não é la tão bem organizado
Diferente do 1 que achei bem tranquilo de transitar entre os níveis, o 2 é um pouco complicado, mas não vai pensando que to dizendo de dificuldade não, estou falando mesmo é de navegar entre eles, seleciona-los.
É muito confuso, uma hora você ta num mapa fácil e do nada pula pra um muito difícil por simplesmente não saber qual é o mais pancada, isso deu uma quebrazinha na progressão do jogo.
Diversão na certa!
Como todo jogo de ritmo, a diversão é garantida e dessa vez eu consegui experimentar o co-op pra ter a sensação completa de Rock Band.. e meus amigos foi a melhor coisa que fiz da minha vida, esse jogo funciona muito bem pra te colocar no cenário de banda, seja la o instrumento que tiver tocando é impossível não ficar hypado com essa maravilha.

One of my all-time faves. RB2 in particular is the game of this series I arguably spent the most time with. Bought a bunch of DLC songs, played guitar/drums while my Ma was on vocals. We share a love of music & this was always such a fun way to jam out to some classic tunes together. I'll always have fond memories of it.
Basically Rock Band but better. The career mode’s more involved (especially for single player) and the setlist is one of the best in the genre with almost no duds. The engine with its silly strum limit is the only thing holding this back.
Definitely now one of my favorite music games of all time. Incredible setlist, so much customization, A ton of content to get through, and so much potential for 4 player endless fun.
It also made me discover what REAL music is.

THE GOAT, THE GOAT! The best Rock Band game. Killer setlist, Amazing visuals and graphics. Great for all players, experienced or not. Harmonix took everything bad from the first game, and made that great in Rock Band 2. Goated game
When I was 16 my friend Doug and I were overseas for a school volleyball tournament and this family housed us for the week. They had an attic with a tv and this game (with a mic, guitar and drum set). We played this on full volume till 6am every single night and somehow managed to win the volleyball tournament also. HUGE apologies to that family who never dared to speak up once about how annoying we must've been lmao.
Great music game. Wish it had a PS4 remake, so I could play without having a PS3 again.
Game seems kind of cool but you need a microphone even if you don't want to be a vocalist so I'm completely blocked out of using it right now. I know what RockBand plays like so I'm sure its just more of the same.
Ive played all of the official Guitar Hero and Rock Band games quite a lot, and this is their magnum opus.
Years of Guitar Hero already got a ton of dad rock education through my skull, but learning about Steely Dan via Boddhisatva may be one of the biggest disproportionately-monumental butterfly effect moments in my life that wildly changed my appreciation for music.
By the way, the other 83 songs also make this the best GH/RB setlist. Even Cool For Cats feels right in here? Why?

taught me rudimentary drums and super fun. I drank so much cherry pepsi (those who know get it)
TENACIOUS D MENTIONED 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Born too late to explore Earth.
Born too early to explore the stars.
Born just in time to play Rock Band 2 throughout the entirety of high school.

esse é muito videogame
best setlist, and the instruments got major upgrades from 1.
this game was magic that simply can't be replicated

(I played the Deluxe version of Rock Band 2, and I had quite a few crashes throughout my playtime)
Yeah I mean it's fine lol
it builds on Rock Band 1 slightly by just adding more songs, more animations, more venues and more customization, but the UI is very similar, the look is very similar, and there's not a whole lot extra that's added on, which is fine but leaves me desiring more.
The base song selection is very fun and good! and it's very fun to be able to play these songs, albeit on a much easier game than Guitar Hero ever was lol

I loved it at first, but you need to replay a lot of the same songs throughout the Tour mode, and it gets boring after a while. Maybe Rock Band 1 was rushed and Rock Band 2 was released to solve some of the problems with the first entry. That’s it, nothing special, no charm, no innovations—just a polished version of Rock Band 1. Which is still a great accomplishment!
Best soundtrack
Aesthetically more pleasing than guitar hero, but functionally the same game.
im bruce springsteen
Might be controversial, but I prefer this ever so slightly to Guitar Hero III - mainly because it just feels more dynamic. More dynamic in its setlist (without those rough covers which GHIII still had [like Paranoid + Holiday in Cambodia.. ooof]), its wide docket of pretty venues, campaign, and of course full band gameplay. Charts are still weaker than GH overall (very possibly due to Harmonix's attitude that rhythm games should be played with 'music >> gameplay' in mind) but they're still mostly fun - and holy hell is it ever a VAST improvement over almost everything wrong with the first Rock Band - I'm very impressed with how much this still holds up! Still a few dropped notes here and there (especially with long lines of strum salads) and I'm not sure if I'm a fan of how much repetition you can expect in the campaign setlists, but there is just hours upon hours of good content here (with DLC support!) even just as a solo guitarist. Still can't touch Guitar Hero World Tour at all though imo.
Can't finish this one yet since my capture card decided to die on me finally (RIP it's been like 8 years), but this one is awesome. Gotten me really into Interpol after hearing PDA on this game.
