CES 2008: Ion Rock Band 2 Drum Prototype Drumset

[Brontux]

indeed

[juangta117]

this drums are gay

[AxelGD]

haha this guys terrible. and these drums arent even that cool

[helloYourgay1]

what song is this??

[runescapeloler]

Black Hole Sun - Soundgarden

[TeringHerrie4Life]

@JSW588 It is slightly like real drums, as this does teach you a basic rhythm, but that's all.

Other than that, it's indeed nothing compared to the real thing.

[gman7780]

this guy is ok at the drums but missis alot

[sk8radam93]

are you retarded? ive had it for six months and have not had a single pad miss.

[TheNewDrug89]

this guy sucks...

it's not the drums....its the dude...

[reedhappens03]

whats the difference? the red coverings? lol coverings

[PMaka1991]

wow, those drums were sooo ugly, thank god they changed them...

The stand looks cooler though...

[pnhs3]

dude sucks you see him flip his drum stick thinking he is the shit haha

[gingakiddy]

is it the guy thats shit or is it the prototype pads that are unresponsive?

[zackattack94]

this guy sucks shit on my first try on this song i got 93%

[gingakiddy]

ok... 93 isnt too bad i guess... but i think its the pads, and not the dude, because theyre only prototypes

[zackattack94]

first try never seen the chart before with regular rock band 2 drums that drop notes i think thats pretty good not the best but better than this i still think its the guy?

[gingakiddy]

uhh i would presume its the guy, seeing that they wouldnt let the prototypes into the 'wild' without them being responsive, but about your rockband 2 sets, i've been 5*ing the metallica songs, all that remains songs and visions ect on rockband 1 stocks, theyre so horrible, my red pad doesnt even work and my bass pedal had 3 different cracks in xD

[gingakiddy]

my point being that i'd love a rockband 2 stock set, or ions... sexy  ions... *drool*

[zackattack94]

my rock band 2 stock drop notes here and there i wouldnt mind having the ions the only problem would be the amount of room other than that all take them

[gingakiddy]

yes, when i have the monies i shall get ion-ness, if i can fit them

[wheelie4lj]

i have the "Sexy Ions" that u speak of. they are worth the money

[gingakiddy]

its quite funny, since i've said that i've bought the ions, and they've broken, the module has died and they wont connect XD

[wheelie4lj]

that sux. for wat system?

[gingakiddy]

Uhh 360

well now theyre connecting again, looking at all of this is like a really crappy travel through time xD

[btothe18]

lol stick flip that guy is horrid. has no rhythm at all.

[ilose2]

yeah all flash no substance

[cluelessismyname]

he like doesnt even touch the yellow cymbal

[wwenumber1]

1:20 was cool

[Bluntkidd420]

That stick spin was awesome lol, I don't care what no one says. Expensive kit, though it would be real nice to have instead of the stock ones.

[RCSDrummer4Life]

hahahaha n00b

[EvilNinja8727]

Man that guy SUX at drum's!! did you see him do tha spin with tha drum stix like he was all good! HA! that was funny when he failed at tha end tho! lmao!

[rhythmtandemplayer]

Check RHYTHMTANDEM for another great innovation.

[zygangter]

i* .....

[zygangter]

I wish u had those drums. they r awsome

[SlaynWylde]

You're doing it wrong.

[DRAG0NSIN7]

lol the xbox 360 is there out in the open ready to get stolen

[FRayus]

only you would think of stealing it in a convention full of guards and people

[DRAG0NSIN7]

Oh im sorry i didn't see them

[FRayus]

Wow theres like a billion people in the back round, you can even hear them how can you not notice the place is packed

[InsaneDrummer99]

the drums set is 300.

and then yer looking at 2 or 3 more symbals which are 50 each.

pricing up to 400 to 450 JUST for the drum set

you losers should stick with guitar hero world tour

[VendettasTruth]

wow seriously?

[zackattack94]

guitar hero world tour sucks and second idiot it comes with 2 CYMBALS and a 3rd for an extra 50 and shipping is like 25 so it comes to around 375-380

sum people are really uneducated not only does he is he not able to spell he has huge math problems mistaking 450 for 375 idiot

[PizzaBlade17]

retard! FIRST YOU START WITH THE DRUMS which cost $300 and $288 from wal-mart. then you get 2 cymbals free with it and then you can buy an extra for $50

[master02jam]

it doesn't matter if he suck.. he's just showing the ion drums not his skills... peace out

[TSweet365]

are the ions hard to play or something bc this is an easy song and this guy fucked up alot

[AsyrafSims]

WHAT THE FUCK!!! those ppl who bought rockband 1 complete band game has to get a new one which cost OVERRR $200

[IdleOz]

No, if you wanted you could just buy the game for 60 bucks. Do a bit of research, even wikipedia could havbe helped you on that one.

[rocker3277]

way to go fat fuck u suck

[MOOSKENBOGN]

wow he's bad

[marlo916]

roflcakes bbq sos he sucks.

[rushrocks44]

where is the hi-hat pedal? u need a hi-hat pedal

[RyuuHatake]

Spin your sticks after you can play the drums well =]

[bonebreaker360]

its fun to do

[RyuuHatake]

xD I know.

It looks like it cost him a few notes though...

[Muhsroomhead]

Can you use the ion drums to play like real electronic drums when youre not plugged in to the xbox?

[69iambecomedeath89]

if you buy a module from the company that mkes it , but you can do that anyway if you get guitar hero

[50Dudes]

this is not the real one RB2 is already out its way different.

[mkill4]

Get a life you old noob!

[eg0no]

HAHAHA se fudeu gordo fdp

[gaylo101]

wow he needs to learn how to use the cymbols haha you failed fatty

[mars009]

Wow can't believe he failed it

[Auto0725]

If you can use this drum kit on guitar hero 4, what's gonna be the orange on the drum kit?

[taylor1129611]

shoulda played a rockin out with yer cock out song for demo not this slow shit lol..i love sound garden so dont think i mean the song is shit just demo with a fast song. =)

[MuskokaLad]

I think your getting ripped off period playing this shit. I've had a drum kit for a year now and I'm learning Mastodon's - Sleeping Giant. Rock band is a silly little toy, not an instrument.

[ri8002]

not 100% true muskokalad, Ion drum kit is a real electric drum kit, thus you can use it as an electric drum kit. Sure I like beatin on my real drum set, but having the option to practice with the electric one isn't all that bad ya know?

[NUMBER1METALFANATIC]

asshole sonnnnnnnn........

[nedak]

so unrealistic.

[hiimchris]

how much are the drums?

[TheQtube]

around $300

[ElCholoLoco13]

attention to all people..... If Ur Goin to buy rockband 2 the full set u will get ripped of!!!!!!!!!!!!! yippidee do theres 3 cymbals big deal they only replace the other pads, just buy the game is self NOTE: THIS MESSEGE IS ONLY FOR PEOPLE THAT HAVE THE FULL ROCK BAND PART 1 SET.

[jrizzyrizz]

yea but the rock band 2 stock set is better, velocity sensitive pads and a metal stock petal combined with more sensitive pads that drop less hits wins

[smartass2st]

Get both RockBand 2 And Guitar Hero 4? If you're going to spend a shit load of money on that, you might as well go to the music store and buy yourself a real Fender or a set of some Ludwigs. People take this game to serious. I play rockband when i want to have fun. Some of these people actually think they're a real rock star. lol. But cant play real instruments. Any monkey can match up colors on a screen. I play expert(no big deal). But I also play real instruments. (ITS ONLY A GAME KIDS!!!)

[JaggedPirate]

what are the other 2 cymbals for? Rock Band 2 will bend over and take it in the ass when GH4 out OH YEAA!

[jaredgroshen]

The Drum Addition to GH4 was a really stupid idea. Its called GUITAR hero. Not DRUM hero or BAND hero. Guitar hero is for GUITARS and Rock Band is for BANDS. nuff said.

[XbloodysniperX]

thats how i feel as well im so getting rock band 2 and F*** GH4

[TNAsucksass]

lol its not a war you dont work for no one lol chill out i got rock band 2 and the drums are already shitty

guitar hero world tour will have flaws 2 but who gives a fuck get both god dammit...

[JaggedPirate]

You dont know what you are talking about. GH4 will change gaming! Maybe you dont know but you can create your own songs.

[douchebag155]

ok..... and like a drum kit that can turn into an electronic drum kit and something that doesnt look like a 4 year olds toy wont?

if you wanna do that shit why dont you just go use protools or garageband?

[JaggedPirate]

Because it's easier this way and I can share them online and download any song I want when people create them.

[JaggedPirate]

Douche....

[Drock1994]

That's Right =)

[ClanResolve]

GH4 will NOT change gaming. Seriously. Rock Band changed gaming.

Now we've got Guitar Hero: World Tour, which is a complete Rock Band rip off, trying to take center stage. Trust me, the "create a song" feature will be gimmicky as hell.

Seriously, how the f*** are you supposed to create a decent sounding song with five drums, a kick pedal, and a 5-fretted guitar. :-/

[CrazyMateFTW]

GH:WT will be better than Rock Band 2 but in my opinion but since I got rock band ive loved getting the DLC for it but GH3's Death Magnetic was the tip of the ice berg for it :P

[hatmolester37]

no it wont, it'll be a good addition to a set of games but the GHWT drums are pieces of shits compared to RB2

[CrazyMateFTW]

But whats the point in paying £150 or $300 for a set of drums? Might as well just buy a real set of drums for that price, the full set of GH:WT and game is coming to £150 so I can get 4 instruments and a game for the price of the drums lol. ALso by 4 instruments, I mean that I pre ordered on gamestation(.)co(.)uk and you get a free bass guitar.

[tomfrommyspacee]

If you know much about drums, you'll know a complete set doesn't exactly cost just $300.

If you think about it you're getting a pretty decent, ELECTRONIC drum set, that just happens to work with a pretty amazing game.

Plus for those who live in apartments, this doubles as a fun game as well as a quiet electronic set.

Just a thought.

[CrazyMateFTW]

Well a starter set of drums will cost you around £150-£200 so I think I would rather buy a starter set of drums instead of spending £150 on a games drums. Just my opinion though

[pokerguy94]

dumbass do you know how badly gh4 would sell if they kept it at guitars, its the natural evolution for the series

[Enigmers]

I love how Activision buys the Guitar Hero franchise just so they can keep copying everything Harmonix is already doing and people like you think it's great.

[SensesFailx13xx]

lol he sucked

[stokessssss]

The stick spinning is a habit. I do it between notes lol.

[RhythmHappy]

trying to be cool sick twirling yet 2 starring on like hard or w/e

[onegrayghost]

lol i can hear him missing the actual drum kit. What a drum nub for showing off and acting amazing and only being able to 2* a medium/hard song. lolz.

[jodgey4]

mine comes tommmorow... ill tell u how it is... but the cymbals, throne, and double bass pedal come in 3-4 weeks which sucks ass

[mattkennedy419]

glad they didn't come out like that, and the first thing i tought was "Man, that guy sucks but he has the nerve to spin the sticks between notes that one time, LMAO"

[PianoPlayerICECOLD]

lol

[dartvader117]

meh, i like the look of it without the red casing on it more

[razz2k8]

guys just to tell you this is a prototype...

[shinn4]

.....fails at black hole sun.. this guy sucks.. and rb2 has better songs thats the point of it

[razz2k8]

shinn... your gay this vid is just showing you the new drum kit not the persons skill idiot

[acidbath786]

so were not allowd to comment on his skill just because you said, well FUCK YOU ever heard of free speech faggot. fuck off, P.S. that guy sucks ass

[hardcoreskipjack]

yea he really does suck...

[irishhlad87]

I love how this bitch thinks hes cool and pro then fails miserably

[masonjclark]

drums look gay

[hasfarr]

Trying to beat Guitar Hero again, eh, Harmonix?

[xxanonymousxx569]

They probably did, drumwise.

[LuminescentLady]

looks good but to manychoards

[NewfieldHS]

whats the point of these for RB2?... is there another drum mode allowing use of the extra cymbols and stuff?

[JunkBoy]

It is highly customizable, and the cymbals is just another pad for the same color. They sound differently than the toms during fills.

[Toddyboy2]

EMERGENCY!!!!!! lol

CAN any1 please tell me the uk release date for this game, i really need to know!!!

msg me back ASAP

[JunkBoy]

Rock Band 1? It is out.

[zsasy123]

those drums look sick but there huge!!!!!

[rslordwii]

its way too big

[doublechin324]

its not real plus he keeps hitting the tom instead of the hat

[gh123rb]

were is that

[suwoopni99acrakaflip]

dats shitt is 2 big!!

[lolo2556]

motherfucker thats awesome

[everybodywin]

lol nice crowd, if i where you id blast run to the hills and then show the crowd how its done haha.

[rwoodard64]

That was just the prototype the finished product doesn't really look anything like that. This video is from almost 10months ago, they've made some changes since.

[Alieneater999]

doesnt take any getting used to.

there are 4 pads and 3 cymbals that replace the right 3 pads...

you can still just use the pads and it wont change the note chart at all

[budwayz]

eww....

[ridicoulslyawkward]

that could take some getting used to lol

[JannLee223]

where is he? i gotta go there

[nixlopez]

im sticking to ghwt!!!

[triblent]

i got questions is that the drum set looks when rock band 2 comes and if you get the cymbols is it neccessary to hit them or you could hit the cymbols if you want?

[gaylo101]

you hit them if you want to hiyt mhem its kind of gay

[homecoming12345]

which drum set is gonna come with the game on september 14th? this one?

[happyslapjack]

god no

[gaylo101]

this drum kit is already out

[Insomniawesome]

No it's not.

[soldier7291]

looks like guitar hero's

[oceanconceptdude]

ghwt doesnt even make real cymbals its like a fourth of one...and all the toms are mounted alltogether...I'll be passing on that

[Vlamakis]

Hey guys my sisters friend works for the media and has a couple pics of the prototypes, ill upload them later.

[Mr1ManlyMan]

the ion drumset is so much more cooler than the ones in ghwt.

[chelonianlover12]

1:20 Lol, He isnt all that, you are not even keeping a good score overall. I agree with purple0zebrah

[purple0zebrah]

wow that guy sucks

[sk8ervzla]

WTf! that drumset looks gay ass fuck the snare and the toms are so spread out!

[SharinganSpirit]

ok first off The snare and toms are supposed to be somewhat distant from eachother and the tom arent that close to eachother on areal drumset in the first place only the middle 2

[acromp]

you can move them around a bit

[elmalhermano]

so 4 thingys to hit wans enough, they had to make it 7, i can imagine how the hardest song will be

[bigal9151991]

for yellow, green, and blue you have the option of hitting the pad or the cymbal. the cymbals are for a more realistic fell like playing a real set you dont have to use them. but when your in a fill if you hit the toms you hear toms, and if you hits cymbals you hear cymbals

[mssbball32]

yeah i dont really like that....the set looks cool though

[nextbmxstar]

that guy has to feel really stupid, messing up an easy(er) song on drums in front of all those people!

anyways i can not wait until this set is available for purchase! sexytime when it is!!

[CrzyTwinsFan81]

The dude sucked. But he sure could twirl that drum stick once! Drummer Hero!

[imaxaccre]

Is there any backwards compatibility!?

[sillypup13]

Yup, according to Wikipedia, the instruments work with both Rock Bands

[RubberDuck71014]

yes but that's Wikipedia ;)

[sebaha93]

Was he playing the drums?

[EricDaCableGuy]

nah shit he only had drum sticks cuz hes fuckin singing!! of course he was playing drums

[RubberDuck71014]

Nope. That was guitar. The drums are an instrement you strap over your shoulder and strum while pressing fret buttons.

[crypdan]

he almost lose

[Schimoen]

Rock Band > All forms of Guitar Hero

[teiko41]

how do u kno when to hit the cymbals r they there if u want to hit em or certain notes?

[austinhubbard1]

the kits awesome but that just looks awful

[thenuker53560]

they should try iy with sum1 whos good at it hahah way to easy of a song

[bucknasty212]

that guy sucks

[iknoimcool]

whenever i look at that drum set i think its just really cluddard and confusing, and they kinda copied GH world tour with elevating the cymbols

[BeastlyDrumm3r]

first off iknoimcool who had drums first?thats right and 2nd its not confusing if your a drummer

[tamocoj]

they copied with the drum idea........duh

[xIlIxPiNStripEsxIlIx]

all of you are stupid, were do you here drums, or vocals, in GUITAR hero?

[thenuker53560]

guitar hero 4?

[iknoimcool]

your the dumbest fuck here k how dont you kno abouit guitar hero world tour its the next guitar hero coming out in october and it has drums and vocals in it as well as the guitar

[jeffy6665]

lmao your a fucking retard maybe he doesn't know about guitar hero 4 because he isnt into video games maybe he just likes that game or maybe he has a gf proply unlike you

[iknoimcool]

I dont need a gf faget

[guam89110]

in guitar hero world tour u dumb fuck

[mrTooKanSam]

its called guitar hero world tour drums vocals guitar bass . idiot

[xIlIxPiNStripEsxIlIx]

Lmao thank you, someone who found the humor in it, and u put guitar twice my friend :)

[mrTooKanSam]

sweet i have a friend with an X in there name.

this day just keeps getting better

[MacDrummer94]

because there is a game called GUITAR hero world tour. with drums, vocals, guitar, and bass.

[SyriusVideos]

yeah.......GH copied Rock Band...::dodgy:: you tell them man....get those copyin bastards.

[mario537]

Yeah that puzzled me too...I didnt see him use the middle one. and i dont know why he used the the left one...and the one on the right looks likes its the same as the rightest pad thingy...I'm confused. Maybe they switch colors or something. It looks worthless to me (the cymbals)

[pgp612]

If thers 7 pads why is there only 4 different colors on the screen excluding the bass

[klunkter]

i think can shed some light on the confusion. u see the colors on the screen represent more than one piece of a real drum kit. so red = snare drum, yellow = hi-hat/tom 1, blue = ride cymbal/tom 2, and green = crash cymbal/ tom 3/ cowbell so the cymbals in the video are what the pads would double as. making it more realistic if the note chart was read properly. using the cymbals are optional and the man in the video chose not to use some.

[pgp612]

or maybe you can just use them as an alternate for the cymbals idk we have to wait till it comes out

[camc1214]

This is proof that people playing rockband cant play real drums...its in the wrist not your arms...he sucks

[MichaelRD777]

"This is proof that people playing rockband cant plat real drums"

No,really?You're just realizing that now?

[camc1214]

I always knew that, now go be a dick in the corner.

[MichaelRD777]

screw you

[myst3rykid]

too bad this drum set goes for around 300 bucks

[shaman989]

lol thats retarded , hes hitting a tom instead of a hi-hat..

This is the Premium Drum Set for Rock Band 2. People saying this isn't for Rock Band 2, fuck you.
