Will Guitar Hero World Tour have a bigger opening week than Rock Band 2?

Settled as Yes

Guitar Hero outsells RockBand nearly 2:1

Background:

Rock Band 2 promises to improve upon the already successful formula that allowed players to play up to four instruments in co-op play. Improvements include online World Tour mode as well as updated graphics and song lists.

Guitar Hero World Tour takes the Guitar Hero experience outside guitar and bass play and brings in drums and vocals. There is going to be the ability to create your own song in the game.

Critics have claimed that the Guitar Hero brand has a better song list than Rock Band, but Rock Band does downloadable content better.

Who will emerge the victor after week one in terms of the amount of money made?

is the amount of money made being tracked by sales? you might want to edit the question to reflect that becuase who really knows how much money is made for each unit sold of each respective game?
