Support NeoGAF

[Malechai]

unless i'm reading the table wrong, it looks like my wireless drums and guitars from guitar hero world tour are compatible? woot!

RIP GH2 Xplorer

Damn. There goes my purchase.

 

[Enter the Dragon Punch]

OH SHIT PROTOMEN

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

I guess that Sinclair guy can quit bitching now, since his PS2 crap will be supported. Too bad he's banned.

Oh well I guess that's only if he bought PS@ RB to begin with.

 

[PROh1bited]

Guys go here if you want ion kit support.

Voice your displeasure there.

Damn. There goes my purchase.

So a guitar you bought 8 years ago, stops you from buying RB4? You're lucky to even be able to use any of the last gen instruments.

Yes, because I'm not about to go buy all new instruments. If what I still have worked, great. Was looking forward to just buying the stand alone game. Now being that it doesn't, I'm not reinvesting in new stuff. Different priorities but I'm glad most will work for those who have them. It's a nice plus.

 

[Xone9]

wasn't a ton of guitars dumped in a desert somewhere to be buried (like the E.T cartridges)?

be funny if this becomes a hit again and the market for used 360/ps3 guitars gets hot

 

[GamerJM]

All of my guitars are compatible and three our of four of my drums are *_*

god, why did I buy four plastic drums

 

[Shpeshal Nick]

Cool, I have the 360 Warriors Of Rock guitar.

Me too. GH3 Guitar, that works? Link won't open for me.

edit. Fuck yea Protomen. Game is worth buying for Light Up The Night Alone.

 

[webkatt]

Is there going to rocksmith like option for a real guitar

 

[Adam Tyner]

Nope:

There will be no Pro Guitar or key support in Rock Band 4.

 

[FyreWulff]

I'm not sure what people expect for 360 instruments working on PS4 when I can't recall a single time a console officially supported another company's controllers.

Sony never even supported 360 controllers on the PS3 as a generic USB controller, either, even though they theoretically could have.

Like, the only thing I can think of was being able to use Genesis controllers on an Amiga, but I don't think anyone was counting that.

 

[Markitron]

My drums broke a while back but the rest of my stuff is compatible, I really don't want to buy the band in a box but it seems that's my only option to get the new drums.

 

[El-Suave]

Any word on the Logitech Guitar Hero wireless controller for PS3? That's my only one that still works from the last generation of guitar games.

 

[SolidusDave]

So none of the Playstation instruments will require an additional adapter (the new one)?

I'm still rocking the RB1 instrument bundle and I'm so happy that even the wired drums are still supported.

btw. will I still need the USB-dongle from the guitar? I guess the USB hub that came with the instruments should also work on PS4.


With that conformation I can digitally preorder the game, you get a bunch of PS+ exclusive songs that way, right?

 

[FyreWulff]

You'll still need the PS dongles.

An adapter is needed for the One since the One lacks the 360 controller radio board

 

[SolidusDave]

You'll still need the PS dongles.

Thought so, thanks!

 

[goonergaz]

wow, good news...I was just thinking about selling all the kit off!

What about the songs though? Is this going to be like singstar where the songs (eventually) transfer over as they are updated?

http://www.cinemablend.com/games/Ro...360-Songs-Possibly-Use-Controllers-70462.html

Seems they will transfer too

I thought I read somewhere that there was no legacy support but it seems all bases covered and all I need to buy is the main game

edit - ergh, just realised - Beatles is disk so I assume I will lose those

 

[FyreWulff]

Their plan is if you have an official song, you can get it again on next gen.

RBN is still TBD.

Beatles is forever attached to their own game, so we'd have to get like, a next-gen port of Beatles to get those back.

 

[goonergaz]

thanks for that
