If you want/need (I'm not a drummer, virtual or otherwise) to use a separate part of your body for control then surely a bite controlled kick pedal would be more accurate and easier to use.]]>Mar 4th 2009 7:34AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/03/ben-heck-fashions-breath-controlled-kick-pedal-for-guitar-hero/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/03/ben-heck-fashions-breath-controlled-kick-pedal-for-guitar-hero/It's not great, but if you don't have use of your legs, it's definitely something.]]>Mar 4th 2009 12:29AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/03/ben-heck-fashions-breath-controlled-kick-pedal-for-guitar-hero/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/03/ben-heck-fashions-breath-controlled-kick-pedal-for-guitar-hero/Mar 4th 2009 1:32AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/03/ben-heck-fashions-breath-controlled-kick-pedal-for-guitar-hero/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/03/ben-heck-fashions-breath-controlled-kick-pedal-for-guitar-hero/Mar 4th 2009 7:55AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/03/ben-heck-fashions-breath-controlled-kick-pedal-for-guitar-hero/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/03/ben-heck-fashions-breath-controlled-kick-pedal-for-guitar-hero/Mar 4th 2009 12:37AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/03/ben-heck-fashions-breath-controlled-kick-pedal-for-guitar-hero/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/03/ben-heck-fashions-breath-controlled-kick-pedal-for-guitar-hero/Mar 4th 2009 12:43AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/03/ben-heck-fashions-breath-controlled-kick-pedal-for-guitar-hero/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/03/ben-heck-fashions-breath-controlled-kick-pedal-for-guitar-hero/
So what blows more: this game or people using this device?]]>Mar 4th 2009 1:22AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/03/ben-heck-fashions-breath-controlled-kick-pedal-for-guitar-hero/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/03/ben-heck-fashions-breath-controlled-kick-pedal-for-guitar-hero/
The game does not blow as it is great at parties.

The device certainly does not blow, nor does it suck as it uses the differential in pressure to simulate the kick.

You blow.]]>Mar 4th 2009 10:40AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/03/ben-heck-fashions-breath-controlled-kick-pedal-for-guitar-hero/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/03/ben-heck-fashions-breath-controlled-kick-pedal-for-guitar-hero/
But in this context, I think this is a great idea, why not let people who otherwise can't hit the kick pedal give the game a go. Yes it will leave you out of breath if you want to play something that wants to rock blast beats for the whole song or something, but surely being able to play some songs is better than being able to play none.]]>Mar 4th 2009 3:06AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/03/ben-heck-fashions-breath-controlled-kick-pedal-for-guitar-hero/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/03/ben-heck-fashions-breath-controlled-kick-pedal-for-guitar-hero/Mar 4th 2009 2:15AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/03/ben-heck-fashions-breath-controlled-kick-pedal-for-guitar-hero/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/03/ben-heck-fashions-breath-controlled-kick-pedal-for-guitar-hero/
