Whoops. If you're looking to buy Guitar Hero World Tour for the drumset, for use with Rock Band I or II, we've got some bad news. It won't work. Not sure why, we were promised, after all. Reports are that the games recognize the drum controller as a microphone, for some strange reason. Seeing as the drums were the only thing we found to be superior when compared to Rock Band, this removes a lot of the reasoning behind buying the game.
We're hearing that Rock Band instruments will work with Guitar Hero World Tour, however. So if you do actually find a reason to pick up the game, you'll be able to play it with those instruments. A Harmonix developer responded to the forum thread, stating "we are definitely looking into this. We'll keep you posted on updates as soon as more info is available." Anyone else get deja vu?
