After Harmonix shook up the rock rhythm game scene with Rock Band last year there was really little doubt that Activision's Guitar Hero franchise would have no choice but to adapt. They have done just that as Guitar Hero IV starts looking more and more like it should be called Band Hero with the addition of drums and vocals to the next installment in the series.
The drums you see off to the right look to be very similar to what was offered with Rock Band aside from the removal of one drum pad and the addition of two hi-hat resembling pads for a grand total of 5 objects for you to beat with sticks. Not to be forgotten is the bass pedal which will also be included.
We can only hope that the drum sets and microphones from Rock Band and Guitar Hero IV will be 100% compatible with each other, but if Activision's refusal to open up Guitar Hero III to Rock Band instruments is any indication, I wouldn't bet on it.
