What's the 3rd drunk kit?

firehawk12 · June 8 2008, 02:12 AM

Konami's Rock Revolution drum kit. They haven't decided whether or not to allow interoperability with other guitars, although at their demo they were apparently using Les Pauls. Either way, three drums this holiday season... yippie!

I just played it for the first time at best buy today. I just purchased it on amazon. Enough said.

FYI, for you 360 owners who buy a lot of the downloadable music (I'm wondering if I've spent more on DLC than the actual game at this point), Circuit City is selling Xbox Live 1600-point cards for $15 this week.

JonathonWally · June 9 2008, 01:53 AM

Thanks for the lowdown, I should pick up a few of them.

TheBrew · June 9 2008, 02:20 AM

Curses! I have no CC near me!

Aragorn · June 9 2008, 03:07 AM

^ You can buy them online. Get two of them and shipping is free. Use something like Ebates and get a small percentage back.

Too bad US cards don't work in Canada... and points are still more expensive up here than down there.

I had a go on this last night with some drunk friends and really enjoyed it. I've never played any such thing before.

I didn't like the guitar but that is probably the snobby guitarist in me, but I loved the drum kit. OK it only lets you use one foot, I think a 2 pedal setup would be great for the really hard settings, but apart from that it is a pretty good introduction to rhythm basics, it's a lot like playing a real electronic kit.

My friend had downloaded Interstate Love Song as well which was great fun to sing.
