Sony paved the way for innovative and interactive music games with the launch of the popular karaoke series, Singstar. Following its phenomenal success, Harmonix Music Systems pushed the limits even further with the incredible Guitar Hero series and now they're all set to unleash their latest musical prodigy, Rock Band, on the public later this year.

Rock Band will allow gamers to play as guitarist, a bassist, a drummer and a singer as they vie to become the greatest band in the world and today Harmonix have released the first picture of the drum kit!

According to official website, the drum controller has four pads, the snare drum, tom-tom, hi-hat, and cymbals. They'll also be a kick pedal for bass drum and will include a pair of drumsticks.

Harmonix say that if you master the drums on expert level, you'll probably be good enough to play in a real band!

I think we need to get saving, if Guitar Hero III retailed at £69.99, how much is this lot going to cost?
