Game Informer is at it once more: after securing the first snapshots of Rock Band’s prototype drum set and microphone last summer, the gaming mag has now produced the first image of Guitar Hero IV’s kit. Apparently designers wanted this one to resemble an actual electric kit a bit more than the one bundled with RB, most evidenced by the pair of “cymbals” perched atop the trio of circular pads. Upon banging on a “first-run prototype” in the Neversoft offices, Game Informer was fairly impressed with the layout, but we’re still left to wonder if these will be compatible with Rock Band (or vice-versa). Another faux drum kit in the den and we’ll be struggling to maintain sanity (and a functional relationship).
