I'm so glad got Rock Band last year. IT means I can buy this in a few months and not feel guilty about the peripheral costs

TBH the drum set looks gorgeous... If the included song list is good and Activision offer a "drums plus game disk" bundle (I really don't need a fourth guitar), I'll have a hard time (and an angry missus) resisting this, although I already purchased Rock Band :)

Looks ace, but the main problem is that Harmonix does note charts a gazillion times better than Neversoft at present. Unless Neversoft can make up the gap, then GH4 will never be as good as Rock Band, no matter how fancy the peripherals.

It's also worth mentioning that including an extra drum pad is almost certainly solely for the purpose of ensuring incompatibility with the Rock Band kit, rather than for any essential gameplay-enhancing reasons.

So now we know what Will Ferrel gets up to when he isn't starring in his latest generic sports comedy flick.
He drums for freakin' RHCP.
Looks good, although there's already worry that it'll cost more than Rock Band, due to the fact that it's up on American websites at a higher price than RB originally was.

Travis Barker didn't drum on Dammit. Tut tut. Anyway, looks nice, but my questions are will the hi-hat be assigned to the middle pad or the left and cymbal? Because both are completely wrong. And will there be support for two kick pedals?

@captainrentboy: hopefully that will be because Activision is spreading the cost of the development, not just lumping it on the EU!

looks cool would be interesting to know if you can use the GH drum kit with RB (obviously can't do the other way round as RB drum kit doesn't have enough pads)
Hopefully this wont cost as much as Rock band either, though the drum kit does look a little more robust then the RB one.

Needs one more Tom. Looks weird with only three skins, but the overall kit looks nice.

Who cares if Guitar Hero World Tour is just a boring to play as GH3 - Rock Band is where the action is at!
