According to a number of emails we've received today, the Rock Band team has contacted a number of people who sent in requests for new guitars to tell them that while their new peripherals are on their way, they were slightly behind schedule due to a late shipment from the manufacturer. As a result, they'll be offering a free EA game to those affected by the slight shipping delay.
Since we're so used to shipping our things off to companies and expecting nothing so much as a "sorry, buddy," in return, this warms the pits of our black hearts. However, it's alarming that they didn't specify which game from their rather extensive catalog they'd be sending. If their new guitars show up with a copy of Shaq Fu in tow, it might do more harm than good.
[Thanks to everyone who sent this in!]
