Taken from engadget

$189.99 will get you the Guitar Hero World Tour "Band Kit" with drum kit, guitar, and microphone. Meanwhile, the "Guitar Kit" at $99.99 will come with just the guitar controller. For those of you who want to use your current controller (assuming current controllers will work), the game-only version will run $59.99 (or $49.99 for the PS2 and Wii). The game's ship date, as of now, is set at 10/27/08.

Songlist is more important than price for me... GH3s songs were pretty awful for the most part.

You think so?

I bought GH3 before GH2 and prefer GH3 songs tbh. Even went as far as getting the GH3 soundtrack

Same reason I dont have RB puts me off GH4..I just dont have the room in my apt

GH3's good song were awesome, however there was way too much filler imo, whereas GH2 had a very nice balance and didn't have as many songs that I simply detest.

If they give DLC a real shot this time around, I don't see how GH4 can fail... the hardware so far has definitely upped the ante on rock band. Now hopefully the stuff doesn't crap out like rock band guitars and the drum pedal

GH4 is gonna be immense, mainly coz you can write your own tracks and upload them which will be amazing

as someone said above the space thing is starting to become an issue. i cant fit any more stuff into my room

That is awesomeness distilled into video form!!

I have more interest in this than Rock Band. Assuming my PS3 Guitar Hero 3 guitar will work with it. Should be great.

Couldn't agree more..

I'll buy the game alright. But am hoping the current instuments work (i.e the guitar from GH3 and drums from Rock Band) - hopefully Harmonix won't stiff us into buying yet more peripherals!

EDIT: Actually definitely doesn't appear the RB Drum Kit will be compatible (due to the 2 cymbals)! BALLSSSSSS!

ShaneU

The GH4 Drums have three drum pads and two cymbals and rock band has just four pads, I'm not sure if they'll work.

Basq

Yep.. only noticed that after watching the video.

Very doubtful!

IIRC the propriatary hardware belongs to Activision. Harmonix's stuff conforms to the normal controller standards.
