News has been floating around that EA/Harmonix/MTV is going to release a new version of their hit Guitar Hero this year entitled......(drum roll)....... (pun intended)........ Guitar Hero World Tour! (cymbal crash!). One of the changes is they are adding a drum kit. Being an avid Rock Band drummer I was happy to hear they are adding crash cymbals to it as shown here.
So what's not to like? Personally, and this is just me, I think it is missing an extra tom tom to the right of the green pad. If they really wanted to provide a real feel to the drum set there should be another tom next to the green pad. Of course that would give 7 total inputs but still manageable. Actually thinking about it I'm not even sure why I'm asking for more pads to be placed onto it, I can't play a lot of songs on expert now as it is!
I just hope they make the bass pedal more resilient so it doesn't break like Rock Band's. I hope to be standing in line to pickup the latest version when it hits the shelves.
