It was never going to be pretty - and with Guitar Hero World Tour set to go head to head with Rock Band 2 this autumn, the rock 'n' roll royal rumble has begun in earnest.
Speaking to Eurogamer last week at Game Convention 2008, Guitar Hero director Brian Bright scorned Harmonix' attempts to match the feature set of the World Tour drum kit, while ostensibly clearing up the mystery surrounding the rumoured new peripherals for Neversoft's title.
"I don't know how far ahead they planned that - we obviously revealed [our drum kit] much earlier than they did," said Bright, referencing Harmonix' plan to release separate clip-on cymbals for Rock Band set-ups.
"I've a feeling there was a: 'Oh s***! There's cymbals! How can we put cymbals on our kit?' That would be the easiest way without having to rewire everything and re-engineer the entire circuit board."

Sometimes, gaming soundtracks can introduce players to bands and artists they've never heard of. This article is all about Matt's five favorites, thanks for gaming.
Those Were the Days - Legends of Rock. A look back at one drunken evening that brought to light the best thing about Rock Band and Guitar Hero.
Nice. I remember so many drunken nights with Guitar Hero and Rock Band. So much fun to be had.
Lol at GHWT dev http://www.rockband.com/for... seems as if his symbals arnt made properly >:P serves him right
I hate Neversoft for ruining the GH franchise. I'm loyal to Harmonix who brought us the whole thing in the first place - and I totally want the new RB2 drums.
i still dont know which special edition band kit to get hope they review the kits soon im leaning more on guitar hero world tour bec of the drums and i heard the guitar is better than rock band (never tried it but tried rock band's guitar) so ill just have to wait :(
