Which Wii guitar/drum kit buy?

BROSTE

Want to get my girls the guitar/drum set package to go with their Wii for xmas but a bit lost. I have seen Band Hero/DJ/Giuitar and now warriors of rock. Looking at all the music it seems the Band Hero band kit would be best suitable but OOS most places. Girls are 11 (girlie) and 13 (Green Day etc). I have seen a Green Day game that looks like I could use if I get a package and know that I will find something for younegr one. Are all these games compatable with the band sets? The Warriors of rock is £139 whereas Tesco were selling the Band Hero for 89.

Help me out of this minefield someone please

The guitars/drums are compatible between the Guitar Hero/Rockband games.
The main difference is with the drum kit. The GH one has 5 pads, the RB only 4, but the game sorts this out for you so you don't need to worry (either you only play with the 4 pads you have or the 5th pad is made redundant in the game).
We have both types of guitar and the GH drums and I prefer the GH guitars - I'm rubbish at drums so don't play much lol so can't really comment but they do look sturdier than the RB drums I've seen in the shops.

Going from what music you say your kids like I'd go for the Band Hero set as the Warriors of Rock has lots of brilliant classic rock tracks which they've probably never heard of - see the track listing here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_songs_in_Guitar_Hero:_Warriors_of_Rock

(totally not to our taste so we didn't buy this one lol!)

You can obviously buy the older game versions for variety as they are compatible with the kit.

ETA: many places have been selling the drumkits for under £20 recently, and while not a nice, neat package to wrap up for Xmas, buying seperately might be a lot cheaper for you if you can find any.
