Title: Rock Band/Guitar Hero compatibility?
Post by: thekosmickollector on June 08, 2015, 05:59:09 pm

Hey :) Wasn't sure whether to put this in Modern Games or Hardware but since this is more of a hardware-based issue I've put it here.

Anyway, I just bought the Rock Band Special Value Edition for the PS3 which came with the Fender Stratocaster guitar replica and I was wondering whether or not my Rock Band guitar would work with the Guitar Hero games. I have seen the chart that Activision put out on the matter however it seems that only goes up to World Tour, and Rock Band controllers did not work up until World Tour so I'd assume that every Guitar Hero game post-World Tour has Rock Band compatibility? Asking as I want to buy the Metallica and Warriors of Rock games but don't wanna buy even more controllers :P

Thanks :)

They should.  As far as I know the only ones that are not compatible with RB's guitars are 1-3 and Rocks the 80's
