Guitar Hero: World Tour drums not recognized by PS3 Rock Band 2

by Ross Miller on Oct 27th 2008 2:25PM

Despite promises to the contrary, the PlayStation 3 Guitar Hero: World Tour drum set doesn't seem to be working with Rock Band 1 or 2. Many users on the RB forums have noticed that the game is recognizing the wireless set as a microphone, and unfortunately, the mic isn't being recognized as a beat box receptor.

A Harmonix developer has chimed in to say, "We are definitely looking into this. We'll keep you posted on updates as soon as more info is available." Sony had previously said there would be universal instrument-rhythm game compatibility. The Xbox 360 drum sets seem to work with each respective game. We're working to independently confirm compatibility as we fill in the blanks to our Instrument Compatibility Matrix.

No. It won't.

Like sexual consent, "no" means "NO!" :)

The PS3 version of rock band 2 and GH world tour are compatible, the only difference is you have to take the orange symbil off the world tour drum set to play. the rock band 2 drums are also compatible to the world tour game, you need to added symbils to play due to the extra note added to world tour
