Gonna buy GH4 or RB2...wanna play the drums.

The irony is the Tool songs, whilst awesome, really got under my skin. Hitting the player with massive strobe lights whilst playing effectively a pattern-matching game? Yes, thanks for that...

Thats true, that damn eye that stares you down in the backround the entire time is pretty distracting as well. The worse is when you make a set list with a Tool song in it and you have to play the whole set list with the Tool backround. Although its kind of funny when you play a song that doesn't go with it what so ever like Steve Miller Band or something.

My apologies for bumping an old thread.

I've currently became interested in this series of games and will probably invest in a drum set soon. I've currently got a guitar and since both mics are wired I don't really see a big difference in them.

I already own GHWT (disk only) but will probably purchase RB2 in the near future. DLC is a moot point since I don't have DSL, but I still need some help on a purchase decision.

Since both drum sets are cross-compatible on the 360, exactly how does each respective game work in the opposite series drumset?

In other words, what happens whenever you play GHWT with the RB set (where it has an extra tom but no cymbals)?

How about RB where the GHWT set is missing a tom? Is it still possible to have a cohesive playing experience by playing a game with the opposite series' drums?

And please, no laughing, but has anyone tried using Rock Revolution's set on either game? I've read that the RR game itself is a whole lot different to RB or GH, but how does that odd looking set play?

No apologies necessary, good sir. We live to serve.

The Rock Band 2 drum tracks play pretty much the same using the Guitar Hero drums. You just ignore the orange cymbal(the Guitar Hero drums aren't really 'missing a tom': they add an orange cymbal and move the yellow pad to another cymbal). Since Rock Band typically uses the yellow pad for hi-hat tracking anyway, and the Guitar Hero WT has the 'yellow' tracking assigned to a 'cymbal', your experience won't change significantly using Guitar Hero drums on Rock Band.

If you're using the Rock Band drums on Guitar Hero, my understanding is that Guitar Hero just drops the orange cymbal tracking and assigns it to the green pad, like in the Rock Band game itself.

I have no idea.

I've been meaning to give it a shot since I picked it up a couple weeks ago for $30. I'll have to get back with you once my RB2 ION set releases it's iron grip on my drumming space.
