Geez. I think Band Hero is wayyyy slopper. It's kind of a pink and purple bubblegum teenage girl explosion, like playing an Aqua (Barbie Girl) or Dee-Lite (Groove is in the Heart) simulator. I frequently have to check if I still have a penis after playing Band Hero. :( The first four sets of venues in Band Hero (excluding dupes and the 1 or 2 standounts) is one of the worst setlists I've ever played in *any* fake plastic rock game, ever. Including Guitar Hero: Van Halen! I nearly fell asleep playing that first craptacular, dull-plosion of a Cold War Kids song, and ... it doesn't get much better from there. Whereas Lego Rock Band is rather fun, at least. Really? Geez.

It's definitely geared towards including a wider aged crowd, but nothing about the game felt sloppy to me at all. In fact, I found the way they did the challenges to be rather inspired and something they never even would've been required to add in. The fact that they did however, made for a more fun experience IMO. Interesting, but yeah, I would have to disagree on the final product being sloppy.
