Clarification on the non-existant mystery peripheral for Guitar Hero: World Tour August 26, 2008

G4 had a news story recently saying that there is a new peripheral for Guitar Hero: World Tour, aside from the new guitar, drums, and microphone. G4 said that this peripheral would only be used in the music studio mode. Well, turns out G4 lied to us.
“It turns out we got some wires crossed on this story: According to a Red Octane rep., there is no new peripheral. There is an option in the Studio Mode to add keyboard sounds but that comes from the guitar. The input port on the drums is for any other instrument you would like to add to the tracks. Our apologies for misinterpreting.” — Stephen Johnson of G4
To be honest, I’m glad. We don’t need more peripherals to Guitar Hero: World Tour. You can already do so much with it. One other tidbit on the music studio that people have wondered about that I should clarify as well is the vocals. You CAN record your own vocals, but you can’t put the lyrics in the game, so you’d basically just hum along. I’m assuming this is because of the copyrights to lyrics or something of the sort. So there’s one thing that can be learned from this experience: never trust G4.
