The Wii is getting Tom Petty, Judas priest and more in a epic week as well. And we have not forgotten the PSP - Guns 'N Roses and Franz Ferdinand. Believe it.

I love this game again. Talking Heads are greatness. I was singing Once in a Lifetime in class today.

My friend has asked me about that Avenged Sevenfold song for sooo long, so great for him!
