    Slash co-wrote the bleedin' song, why wouldn't his likeness appear in the game?

    This just seems like a move of desperation, considering GH3 is a few years old now.

    Axl turned into a cock end years ago so news like this isnt the least bit surprising tbh.

    Axl is getting quite litigious isn't he? I mean suing a game that's been out a few years over a picture of a guitarist he fell out with years ago. :rolleyes:


    ps Slash rules.

    It clearly shows how much Slash has gotten under his skin. But considering Axl has referred to Slash as a cancer, nothing surprises me about the man anymore.

    I dunno, Lars is the only musician I know who would gladly sue his own fans...oh wait....****, Axl did that too didn't he....

    Something Lars might like to forget

    Lars brough Napster to the attention of everyone who watches the news. Quite a silly stunt as it backfired spectacularly. Anyone who didn't know about downloading before then learned very quickly.

    Courtney Love was planning to sue the makers of GH 5 ... not for using Kurt's likeness- which she agreed to - but for the way the game let you make him "sing" anything in the game. Can you picture Nirvana doing a Bryan Adams song like "Everything I Do... I Do It For You"? :eek:

    From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty. You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, ‘Look at that, you son of a bitch’.

    Sorry to drag this off topic. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vR_8pgk436g Here's a classic from Kobain.

    But I think that Axl is clutching at straws here. Surely he would have said something about this when the game came out in 2007. Why even bother with it. Surely the man has enough money. He has enough to be a dope and refuse to play gigs, so why bother suing Activision.

    Can't see Lars wanting to forget it any time soon.
