E3 Rumor: Rock Band 2 setlist includes GNR 'Chinese Democracy' track

by Dustin Burg { Jul 13th 2008 at 10:45PM }

The New York Times is reporting that, according to an anonymous source, tomorrow MTV Games will announce that a track from Guns N' Roses' ten year album in the making Chinese Democracy will be included on Rock Band 2's setlist. No joke!

The track "Shackler's Revenge" is the song that's said to be a part of the game's setlist which releases later this Fall. Funny thing is, their album Chinese Democracy doesn't even have an official release date and is one of the most anticipated album releases ever. So, if this Rock Band 2 rumor ends up being true, this could also be proof that Axel and his jumbilation of a band could finally be releasing their album after nearly a decade in the making. We can't wait to hear what MTV and Harmonix have to announce tomorrow.

They weren't overly bad with Buckethead but Axl Rose has always killed that band for me.

Also, been almost 14 years in the making. A little bit more than a decade.

Alas, my RROD this afternoon makes me unable to even consider anything announced this week at E3 - I'm too much in mourning. But if and when my 360 is resurrected, I'd be looking forward to this track, if only out of curiosity.

I know your pain. I am awaiting Microsoft to send back my third console to me. RRoD has killed me.

Well, this is my first RROD, so you've suffered more than I have. The problem is, I'm moving in 3 weeks, so I can't send the damn thing in right now on the off chance they get finished with it quickly - I won't know what address they should send it back to! So I have to wait at least a week to make sure I'll be at my new address before the earliest they could be done with it. :-(
