PS2 Question

[devo193]

This is for all who have the PS2 version.

Is the basic gameplay changed in any way? Are the vocals the same? Drums? Guitar and Bass?

the basic gameplay is the exact same but.. unlike the other bersions for ps3 and 360 the ps2 doesnt have character creation and instead of the band wourld tour thing its like guitar hero where u play a few songs then unlock a few more then play those and so on and so on down the list

why does it not have character creation? I don't want to buy it anymore that was my #1 thing i was looking forward to. come on rock band why give ps3 and the 360 priority over the gold ol ps2:mad::confused:

So that you can have the same quality of gameplay, at the same frame rates, as on the other two systems. This was already explained in another forum by Harmonix staff. You'd prefer to have character creation and unreliable gameplay?

I think it was a time constraint but overall no one really knows.

It wasn't developed by Harmonix though so don't blame them.

But they were closely involved in what was removed and what was kept.

Personally, I don't care about BWT or character creation. Its just bonus stuff that doesn't really affect me in any way.

I really think it had to do with memory card limitations too.

Please see the post I referenced from Harmonix staff linked here (http://community.rockband.com/vbforum/showpost.php?p=194046&postcount=143). No need to guess at the reasons.
