Guitar Hero 4, Rockband ripoff confirmed? Options

[Crushinator]

Long story short:

• Full band set up like Rock Band, Guitar, Bass, Vocal, Drums
• Character creation/customization inspired by THPS and Tiger Woods.
• Create-a-song mode and "Freestyle" mode where you can play your own tunes to songs already in the game.
• Drum controller has 6 buttons, 3 toms, 2 cymbals, and the bass pedal.
• Activate drum Star Power by hitting both cymbals at once to begin a drum fill.
• No more licensed guitars, but you can make your own custom guitar now.
• Your custom character can freely switch between all 4 instruments
• Full bass career mode
• Nooby "strum only" Rhythm guitar mode for little kids or old people who want to join in the fun but suck.
• You can earn cash playing online (Online career mode confirmed?)
• Van Halen, The Eagles, Linkin Park, and Sublime confirmed on the songlist (and Dream Theater?)
• Going for a wider variety of music, not mainly sticking to metal like the previous GHs.
• Every song is a master track, no covers.

I already read through it, but I just have my doubts on Neversoft/Activision actually delivering what they promise. They had grandiose plans for the DLC on GH 2 and 3 as well.

But lets just wait and see! I mean if they can pull it off and make a game better than RB then I'm all for it.

If GH4 can bring in a random Mexican dude at your door with a case of corona asking if there's a party going on when you're actually home alone... then yes, yes I will get it. The drum kit does look pretty nice though.

Instead, a random mexican guy will show up at Crush's door with no beer, and upon answering the door, he will simply ask, "Do you speak spanish?" When Crush says no, he'll walk away.

I promise this will happen. Since it happened like 3 times while I lived there.
