Obviously, making four tracks for bass, guitar, vocals and drums is a lot more time consuming than making parts for just two of them. As a result, the final tracklist for Gh3 might be bigger than that of Rock Band, but I don't think either game will have any shortage on rock tunes.
And therein lies the PS3 syndrome again. Superfluous parts that few people want, and/or need. I would rather have 80 tracks for guitar than 35 tracks for guitar, drums, bass, and microphone, because I have zero interest in bass and microphone - thus making your total track selection 70 (if you double for drums & guitar).
Like I said earlier, I like Rock Band, I think its a great idea, but it is falling into the same trap that the PS3 did - trying to do too much and shoving it down their customers throats because "I said its better." There is no way that Rock Band will do as well as GH3 will, particularly when you take into account the fact that GH3 is available for Wii, which makes it open to a market of another 12 million consumers.
