Neversoft: Keyboard not added to Guitar Hero: World Tour
According to Neversoft's Brian Bright, who allegedly told G4 that a new peripheral was coming to Guitar Hero World Tour only to have them speculate it would be a keyboard, has confirmed to Joystiq that they have bigger ideas for a keyboard title. "A keyboard controller deserves to be introduced with its own game. This is something we're thinking about." So, what about all the keyboard sections in the song creator? Bright says, "there are reasons why we haven't included a keyboard controller." He elaborates that not all of the songs have keyboard parts so, "adding a keyboard controller would either have limited our choices, or the players."
Keyboard Hero confirmed? It had better happen, how else can we test our chops at "November Rain?"

Okay, so maybe I can remember standing in front of the mirror wailing away on an air guitar in my youth... but who wants to be a keyboard hero? I mean, I can name 15 or more lead guitar players right off the top of my head, but keyboard players? Even worse... keytars?!?

Wasn't Keyboard Hero (as well as some others I can't remember) already confirmed as trademarked back when Harmonix was making GH2?

aww i would have loved a keytar. *sigh*
at least they have a good reason not to add it though. it would suck being the keyboardist and missing out on more than half the songs while your friends are rockin out.

Still doesn't shed any light on the new peripheral though.
My money's on the mouth organ.
