I don't feel like GNR's stuff is overly used in marketing for other products. I'm sure they turn down thousands of requests, and seem to be fairly selective. GTA:SA was a killer game, and a good use of the song.

This is the first time i've ever seen a GNR song on a commercial.. To bad, I liked GNR being a band, not being pasted all over products?
'Paradise City' is featured in the game and the city where all the action takes place is even called 'Paradise City'.
You know, when I bought GTA I had never heard 'Free Bird' before. Since I really like that song I tried to find out more about it and bought the Lynyrd Skynyrd box.
I'm sure some of the gamers will share this experience if they hear 'Paradise City' in 'Burnout Paradise' or 'Welcome To The Jungle' in 'GTA San Andreas'.

Yeah well, Lynyrd Skynyrd isn't that popular here. My friends didn't know the song either and we're already 29 - 30 years.
Burnout Paradise will be released next week.

You forgot, that never aired on TV, didnt you?
Plus I forgot about GTA... I dunno, I just prefer not to hear them being used for 30 second product spots...

I think it's been remastered ... sure, that mix is edited together to make the trailer work from a timing standpoint ... but the actual mix sounds a little more punchy. So they probably EQ'd and compressed it a little

Did anyone get this game? I'm thinking of buying it Friday. It looks pretty sick.

Yeah, the game rocks, most racing games have sucked recently, but this one stands out for sure.

And there's the klux of it, Even Guns n' Fuckin' Roses need fresh meat to buy into 'em. The games market is an obvious one. How's about CD Hero, a game
just
with Chinese Democracy tracks on it, bonus material on different levels

You have to pass through a round to get to hear the next song. some will get stuck in the first one forever.

That would be me, but what an incentive to learn to play the game, don't think I could put up with my cock sure son aged 12 taking the piss though....

What if the game is released prior to the album(s) in any other form. Like a few months earlier.
Only the masters of games like your 12 yr old can hear the new songs. Imagine the agony.
