ACTIVISION AND MICROSOFT GIVE THANKS TO GUITAR HERO AND HALO FANS

In appreciation of Guitar HeroR and Halo fans alike, Neversoft, Bungie,
Activision/RedOctane, and Microsoft have all joined forces to bring players
the iconic Halo theme (MJOLNIR Mix) as a free playable song for Guitar HeroR
III: Legends of Rock, exclusively for the Xbox 360R video game and
entertainment system from Microsoft. The theme will be available from Xbox
LIVER Marketplace on Thanksgiving, Thursday, November 22nd.



The Halo theme was written, composed, and performed by Martin O'Donnell and
Michael Salvatori; and the MJOLNIR Mix features guitars performed by the
Grammy Award winning guitar hero, Steve Vai.



"It's a real pleasure to hear one of the best loved and most iconic themes
from Bungie's Halo Universe in Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock," said Marty
O'Donnell, Composer and Audio Director for Bungie Studios. "As longtime fans
of the Guitar HeroR franchise, it was great to collaborate with Neversoft
and Activision/RedOctane to offer this exciting free download to our fans."

    Well it would suck for the singer, but I would love this on Rock Band instead, since I didn't really have plans to get GHIII
    :(

    Suppose I could use the extra guitar, I guess.

    Australia is totally shafted for each and every entertainment release ever.

    But at least we're not fatasses.

    I'm downloading it, even though I don't own GH3.

    I mean, c'mon.

    Unless there's some magic way to only get it in the game.

    Not the Halo 3 theme, but MJOLNIR Mix.

    So expert mode will be impossible to play, right?

    Does this song go away after a certain period of time? If I don't download it, that is.

    Probably not. Just seems like every other normal download, just free.
