Rockers of the classic '80s band Tesla claim to be included in the yet-to-be announced (but you
totally saw it coming)
Guitar Hero 6. In an interview with
Brave Words & Blood Knuckles, guitarist Dave Rude revealed "
Modern Day Cowboy" -- from the band's 1986 debut album
Mechanical Resonance -- will be included in the music title. Rude noted the song was one of three suggestions the band made to
Activision when they were pursued to be included.
While some (
completely talentless) acts have decried the popularity of music games such as
Guitar Hero, Rude feels the genre is an important step for up-and-coming rockers. "I think it's a good thing," Rude said. "Even if people don't learn to play guitar, it's exposing them to all sorts of cool guitar-based music that they wouldn't have ever heard otherwise." You hear that Kroeger? Stop crying ... and writing the same song
over and
over and
over again.
