Last week we all went down guns ablazin’ as everyone duked it out over what the better FPS gun was. One side was armed with a gravity gun, and man did they do a lot of damage. Unfortunately, the other side was equipped with a portal gun, and dodged just about all the incoming attacks. I loved reading the very logical discussion over the very illogical game physics and concepts applied in our own world, proving many robotic readers have certified Dtoid debate degrees. Once the energy field dust settled, here were the final results:
- Gravity gun (28 votes) — No cake for you!
- Portal gun (67 votes) — Cake winners! Just kidding!
This week we widen the scope for a debate that focuses on not just two weapons, not two games, but two entire game series. Let me repeat myself: this is a Guitar Hero series versus Rock Band series debate. To choose a winner this week you must ponder plenty of playlists, half a dozen instrument controllers and their corresponding interfaces, and enough extra audio and visual information to make an A/V club member cream his or her RCA connectors.
Which series do you like better as a whole, and why? What aspects or individual games of the series made up your mind? Give it some serious thought, get your bando’ friends to share their opinions as well, and check back next week for the winner.
Bonus Question: What was one thing you did not enjoy about the series you voted for?
