But does the touch strip work in GHIII?

1337endo · 11-01-2008, 11:39 PM

Nope, that's exclusive for GHWT.

Do 4 GB SD cards work with World Tour?

laxster · 11-02-2008, 06:21 PM

should i get this or rockband 2? please pm me with reasons! also, would my gh3 guitar work with rockband?

daviduk200 · 11-02-2008, 06:30 PM

so far, Rock band 2 seems the way to go,

its got around 80 songs (i think) on the disc, with over 200 to download.
its instruments all so far seem to have very few problems, the soundtrack is pretty dam good aswell.

guitar hero, drums look nicer guitar looks nicer, but both have really big issues,

the song list is good in length and quality, BUT most of all it has GHtunes and custom song creator, giving you infinite song possibilities, ad tonned of user created songs for free.

both onlines seem very similar, but rock bands presentation, give it the edge, overall, id say rockband 2,

but i think Guitar hero world tour is more fun

Remember there's NO online support for Rock Band 2 on Wii

daviduk200 · 11-02-2008, 07:11 PM

oh yeah SOZ im a 360 player here didnt actually know that lol, i knew guitar hero did, but just assumed rock band would have.

well they have started to realese them on discs, as in, rock band volume 1, 2, 3 but still, umm for wii id possibly go with guitar hero then

daviduk200 · 11-02-2008, 09:55 PM

kissarmy4 · 11-02-2008, 10:17 PM

Has anyone tried using a 4 Gigabyte SD card with Guitar Hero: World Tour?

daviduk200 · 11-03-2008, 02:57 AM

it will work unless stated otherwise, Consoles, pcs cameras all read all Sizes of SD cards the same way. the console doesnt look at it and notice its 4gb and not use it, it detects if enough spare room then saves it end of.

but yeah as seremick said below (which i forgot to mention) 4gb SD cards dont exist, its diferent format

No. If it's 4GB then it's not an SD card, it's SDHC. The Wii doesn't support SDHC, only SD which maxes out at 2GB.

Nintendo could make the Wii support SDHC via an update if they chose, but haven't yet. It's already been proven to be technically possible however.

Thanks. I went on support.nintendo.com and it said that the Wii can't use anything over 2 Gigs. I bought a 2 gig card today.

hmm, try googling the whole 4 gig sd thing, i think i remember some post a while back about some way to get around the 2 gig thing, and be able to use all 4 gigs. dont remember where though

Maybe you read it on CAG? In the attempt not to promote another forum, if you are interested PM me and I'll give you the link to the post.

Not true. SD cards go up to 4GB. SDHC go from 4GB to 64GB(I think..is it higher now?). So, there's a little overlap.

Supporting more than 2GB with SD required changing the spec in ways that not much out there supports, including the Wii.

It's a safe bet that if something supports SD and not SDHC, it probably only supports up to 2GB.

True. The Wii doesn't natively support 4GB SD cards...

But there's a work-around that's been floating around since mid-October(maybe earlier?) that tricks the Wii into thinking that a 4GB SD card is actually a 2GB SD card, and with some work you can eventually use all of the 4GB for nothing but Wii files. This is something that can only be done utilizing a 4GB SD card and not a 4GB SDHC card(and you know why).

Just worth mentio
