5.0 out of 5 stars Works great with Guitar hero world tour (ps3), January 21, 2009

This review is from: Rock Band Drum Set (Video Game)

This drum set is a great value for under $30. If you have Guitar Hero World Tour (PS3) it works great, thats why I bought it. The software automatically converts the game play to 4 spaces from 5 (since guitar hero world tour drums have 5 drum pads, and this has only 4). If you're considering buying guitar hero world tour drums, not only will you spend $80 more on ebay for them, they don't work as good. I've played both a good amount and the symbols on the guitar hero drums set often fail to respond. You have to hit them just right, its very annoying. Just type "symbol problem guitar hero drums" in google and you'll see many people complaining about this issue. Another issue with the guitar hero drum set is that it doesn't have a bar to hold the bass kick in place. I have to commonly pause the game to readjust it. This one does have a bar, and the all of the drum pads work every time. If they cost the same I'd still buy this one.
My reccomendation, buy guitar hero world tour bundble (often available for $60 many places) add this for $27, and add a mic for $15, you get the whole set for about $100, can't beat that.

Pro: Compatible with guitar hero world tour ps3, inexpensive, very responsive, Pretty sturdy set for the money, has bar for bass kick.

Cons: Its wired, which isn't a big deal for me, and it doesn't have the symbols (which are fun when they work). I've read alot of reviews about the bass kick breaking, but I've used mine alot for about month with no problem.

Conclusion: If you own guitar hero world tour (ps3) you should buy this drumset.

5.0 out of 5 stars Review on the drum set itself, February 29, 2008

This review is from: Rock Band Drum Set (Video Game)

I got my Rock Band Drum Set in the mail the other day. This review is only for the drum set since the game hasn't arrived yet. I was really suprised when I opened the box. I was honestly expecting cheap flimsy plastic. For a "toy" it is really pretty sturdy. It has some weight to it (the shipping thing says 30something lbs.), so it won't be sliding all over the place. The drum heads are rubbery. It also comes with wooden drum sticks. It is really more than I expected...I don't feel so bad for paying what I did for it. ;)

This is the old version of the drums. They do not work with the cymbals and do not work with "PRO" mode on Rock Band 3 (you need the Cymbals for that). It's nearly impossible to find affordable RB2 or RB3 drums, so you may have to settle on these. They're not a very good value for $90.
