Customer Reviews:
My Drums Work! By Jeff C.
After seeing so many reviews stating that the drums have a problems I went and examined mine very closely. There is a self fix post on here that talks about how some sensors are not placed in the correct places, mainly on the cymbals. I took mine apart and was relieved to see that mine were correct and seem to play fine. Fixing them, if there is a problem, doesn't seem too tricky. Yes, I realize that would void a warranty, but the wait to replace time would drive me nuts.
The game is very solid. I play quitar mainly and have a wireless RB and GH quitar. I prefer the Guitar Hero guitars. The new version of the quitar seems to be an improvement over both the quitars I have. I seem to have a easier time hitting the quick sequences.
I also have RB1 and 2, and to be honest, I prefer playing as a band using RB2 more than GHWT. It's probably that I am just used to RB band play more. Both are enjoyable and I am really happy that the guitars and drums seem to work fine with both games. (Of course the GHWT drums have six notes so you don't use the orange cymbal when playing RB's.
Downloadable contect really makes both games, and at the moment RB2 is way ahead. I hope that this competition between the two games continues because it sure seems like the gamer will benefit.
In all if pressed I would take RB2 over GHWT but luckily I don't have to choose and I can have both. With either game you can't go wrong, they both are great fun.
Good luck all on getting a working set of drums or fixing them.Early Adopters Suffer... what a SNAFU By C. Robart
The track list is the usual mixture of oldies (read: softer tracks by Fleetwood Mac) and harder songs (a set exclusively by Tool). I love the celebrity guests who come on the stage for the 3rd or 4th song in the sets, like Sting, Billy Corgan, etc. That's a nice touch. The customizability will also keep you entertained for hours.
But... I have experienced all of the drum problems listed thus far. I pre-ordered my set but had to return it because the yellow cymbal was not registering at all. The manufacturer puts all shipping costs and responsibility on the users, which is a shame because most problems are with the main drum wiring, (the heaviest piece to ship). Luckily, the store took it back-- but now I have [...] in video game store credit, instead of cash.
My second drum set was fine until I realized that every other red note activates a yellow note, too. Therefore, it's nearly impossible to get a full multiplier/perfect score. I can still play, but it's annoying. Imagine firing bullets in GTA at random, without pressing any buttons. Funny until you have to spend 10 minutes running from the cops for no reason.
The new guitar is bigger, but I'm liking it. I was worried because my hands are small and my arms aren't that long, either. This hasn't been a problem, thankfully, and I'm looking forward to mastering the slide bar.
Anyway, if enough people are having the drum kit problem-- which it seems that they are-- we should file a class-action suit. They are doing it for X360's Red Ring of Death. There is no way Activision put this product out thinking it was not faulty...Fun for a couple songs By CenaLashley4Evr
This past weekend i played guitar hero world touur for twelve hours. i also own rock band 2 and have been playing that since the day it came out. As i usually play rock band on a 50 inch plasma and i had to play world tour on a 34 inch rounded screen old school tv it was a little bit harder to read the notes. but here is my review none the less
Vocals: vocals seem way easier to sing then rock band. the microphone seems to read the pitch better and is more sensitive. the only downside about this is that i don't know the words to most of the songs so it makes it hard to sing it.
Guitar: I love the new guitar. it looks great and feels great. it is very responsive and just the right weight to flip it over your shoulder while having a short break in the guitar. the slide feature seems fun to play but while playing on expert it is very hard to find the right fingering and then to get your fingers back up to frets but i'm sure after playing more i will be able to do it fine.
Drums: i'm a drummer and all i do is play the drums until i'm tired of sitting down. the first time i played the drums it felt great besides the foot pedal. the foot pedal is way to close to the ground. it also doesn't really have much of a spring back and is made of flexible plastic. the purple note was also hard to see on the tv screen to play it. as i continued to play the drums, i would continually hit in between the pads. since the spacing is different from the rock band drums i would go for where i thought the drum was, but it wasn't. This would be fine except for the fact that when hitting the plastic it would make a incredibly loud crack everytime you hit it. another thing about the drums was the cymbals are to close to the pads. my stick would get stuck under the cymbal when i was playing the red and fly out of my hand. and finally the blue drum hardly worked at all. if they fix the blue drum and had a better foot pedal i could tolerate playing it.
Set List: A lot of songs available for GHWT are the same as rock band 2. other then these songs there are about seven songs that i enjoy playing. i would totally recomend the rock band set list over the guitar hero one. while playing the set list i would start to fall asleep playing some songs because i didn't know them. some songs are way to long to enjoy playing. and i don't know why there are so many spanish songs in it. i haven't tried making any songs yet, but from the ones that i downloaded they remind me of old ringtones. it doesn't sound like a real song, but something that comes out of a cell phone. As i said before i wouuld recomend the rock band setlist over the GHWT one. there are about seven songs i like to play on GHWT, there are about seven songs i don't like to play out of my 160 rock band songs.
Overall: overall i would recomend this song for the guitar hero lovers, but i would recomend only getting the guitar pack and get the rock band drums which are far superior. maybe some amazing downloadable content would raise my opinion of the setlist, but so far guitar hero hasn't impressed me with their downloadable capabilities.
