With the full band package setting you back about £150; Guitar Hero/Rock Band can be quite an expensive hobby to have. You can opt to purchase the game and guitar package, by doing so you’re losing out on two very fun components of the game though, and to buy the official equipment you will still need to shell out a fair amount extra in order to experience the game in its full glory. Right now Amazon is selling the Mad Catz Rock Band Portable Drum Kit for just £7.25 though and this therefore offers a very affordable way to kick off your plastic drumming career.

Right now you can buy Rock Band complete with the Mad Catz Portable Drum Kit and Microphone for just £33.97, or Rock Band 2 with the microphone and drum kit for just £46.97. This really is a great price for buying the game complete with its (arguably) best components, and a guitar can soon be sought out if needs be.

A review of the Mad Catz Rock Band Portable Drum Kit will soon be added to the site, if you don’t already have a drum kit for your fake plastic rock game of choice though then I’d definitely recommend investing in this piece of kit from Mad Catz.
