While reviewers were satisfied with the single player modes of the game, the Band tour mode was considered weaker than "Rock Band"s Tour mode. The interface for a full band, despite being similar to "Rock Band", was found to be confusing, making it difficult to determine if a fellow bandmember was about to fail or identifying how much Star Power the band had accumulated. The Band tour was found to be little different from the single player modes, and lacked the additional incentives and challenges that "Rock Band" had. The note charts and the game's difficulty curve were found to be significantly easier than the more punishing ones in "Guitar Hero III". Critics did observe poor note charting, stating that some of the song charts "simply don't match the music" and that "you'll be asked to hit notes where there are none, or not hit notes that are there." The soundtrack was generally praised for containing all master recordings. However, critics found that the setlist contains very few standout hits, and that the inclusion of a number of foreign-language and difficult-to-recognize songs weakened the overall list. Reviews also commented on the number of songs that overlapped with "Rock Band 2"s set list.
