In GH:WT, orange is mapped to blue. In GH5/WOR (I’m guessing), the orange is mapped to green. Although, that means that the ride cymbal is also green…

Currently, unless you have an official Guitar Hero drum set, the drum charts are reduced to 4 lanes from 5. If I remember correctly, the orange cymbal gets recharted to blue. So it’s playable, but I don’t think it’s as much fun.

Yes, it works. I have pro drums right now (you can buy the “first gen” cymbal attachments for quite awhile now), and the functionality is the same, just with three additional cymbals.

While I spend more time on Rock Band these days, there are still occasions, where I through the GH-discs in. I quite like some of the songs and occasionally still buy DLC (most recent: Aerosmith full-band pack), so I completely concur with Tommy’s final statement that “you’ve already sunk money into somewhat pricey peripherals to play the game, why limit your music gaming experience to only one franchise?”

I’m therefore really curious, whether the new Pro-Drums of RB3 will work with GH:WT and GH5. Has there been any announcement regarding this?

Good article. I’m still not giving a cent to Activision, though. Finally, the animation during Bohemian Rhapsody in the “Act 2″ GH:WoR trailer makes me laugh and die on the inside.

I would rather they be gone than be frustrating because I’m saying the word and it’s not registering.

That being said, Green Day’s songs DO have talkies when imported to RB2.
