Copy Cats...

Nu-uh!!! We were first! Quit copying me!!

The funny part is that Konami had drums and cymbals years before Guitar Hero even existed. It also allowed for you to plug in the the Yamaha DTX series electronic drum sets...which finally someone else realized they can do that too. So..Mister GH Devs/Directors/Producers/etc. you rip off Konami's guitar game, you rip off the "band" game, you rip off Konami's cymbals, and you rip off the use of any electronic drumset(although we'll see how well this function actually works). What's next? The ability to change the speed? The ability to reverse which way the 'notes' flow?

Although to be fair the GH team currently working on the game are not the same who originally worked on the game. I think it's ridiculous to point fingers and blame who's copying who.

On the positive side, it will be awesome if you can use almost any electronic drum kit to play GHWT. Surely enough, others will follow suit. I'm much more of a RB person myself. It's really all about the song list and all of the songs I like on GH are on RB and then some.
