i've been calling around to local best buys, circuit citys, gamestops, and frys to get release dates and prices for the ION drum kit for RB2. no one seems to have it in their system or even know what i'm talking about besides the GS people. anyone know where i can even go to buy this thing? or when it will be available?

I would hope so, but it seems like if you have two of the same colored cymbals they activate the same motes as the non-cymbal pad of the same color. Just wondering because if I buy this I would like to get the full experience for GHIV as well even though they're technically "Rock Band" drums, none of this LOL U HAEV OLNY FORE DRUUMS NEWB. |
thats up to activision to deal with. there are 7 different strike pads each with its own input into the console (brain) of the drum. so the game knows whether you are hitting a cymbal or a drum. it just happens that in normal RB gameplay, it doesnt make a difference other than personal drumming style.
from the drum rocker site:
Quote: | Q: Will Drum Rocker work with other games, or just Rock Band?
A: Drum Rocker is designed to work with Rock Band 2, and is compatible with the original version of Rock Band as well. If other music games choose to use the standard drum controller layout that was pioneered by Rock Band, then Drum Rocker should work with them. If other games choose to use a different drum controller layout, those games will not be compatible with Drum Rocker.
For example, Activision has stated that Guitar Hero World Tour will work with Xbox 360 Rock Band drum controllers, which means that Drum Rocker should work with Guitar Hero World Tour in the same way that the core Harmonix drums will work. |
