Totally awesome 80's drum set - Time Waster
by Jay Hathaway Mar 2nd 2009 at 2:00PM
On top of the retro sounds it makes, this drum set is also laid out like a garish rainbow keyboard that would make contemporary hardware designers nauseous just to look at. It also has what appears to be a Transformer in pink sunglasses at the top, which I'm going to assume is the 80's seal of approval. The only complaint I have about this otherwise amazing Internet sound machine is the lack of any kind of "save" feature, which means you'll never hear the amazing beats I made on it.
So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do.

I'm with Dach. It doesn't respond in real time well enough to be useful. Still, it's probably an excellent tool for aggravating everyone within earshot after about 3 minutes.
