+488 Playing drums on Rockband doesn't make you a drummer, no matter how often you play or how good you are. Amirite?

But now Rock Band 3's Pro Drums will change that! :D

No... no more than kicking ass at a fighting game makes you a ninja, or being good at a racing game qualifies you for Nascar. Obvious post is obvious.

The same goes with the guitar controller, amirite?

Of course the same goes for the guitar controller. However, as true as the post is, it's also true that playing the real drums(or guitar) doesn't necessarily translate to GH or RB skills, and they are all real skills. Anyone who doubts that has obviously never played on hard, let alone expert.

It does however get you the closest of the choices because it teaches you rhythm and to use each hand and your foot/feet separately. The guitar is completely different and a good real guitarist can suck at rock band but more than likely a good drummer will be good at rock band once they make the reading adjustment.

Although people who only play Rock Band drums can't call themselves real drummers, you can't deny that this guy would probably be good at real drums: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O3AV-s1q36w

As a real drummer, i find it actually easy to play the rock band drums, if you understand what is what, like red is snare, yellow is high-hat and so on. I play real drums well and rock band drums on hard-expert.
