I don't know how I feel about this.  I'm just picturing a CG character with a mohawk and a flying V rocking out to L.A.  I'm sure if he were here he'd just laugh though.  It's all good.  If I ever play that game I know i'll pick that song.

Fucking Activision strikes again. Now all of my GH playing friends are going to be raving about how they love Elliott and the Elliott forums are going to be overflowing with amateur little pricks that think they are in love with and know all about his music. Damn it to hell.. this is the worst thing that could have happened.. EVER.
