    Activision Moves In To Home With 'Backstage With Guitar Hero'

    PlayStation Home has a new tenant in Activision. The publisher is bringing the Guitar Hero franchise to the halls of Home with "Backstage With Guitar Hero," a space for fans of the ultra-popular rhythm game.

    While the majority of Home will be a hang out space where one can do the Running Man with friends amidst a Guitar Hero vibe—and loads of Guitar Hero Metallica marketing opportunities—it also comes with its own mini-game, Rock God. Try not to get too excited, the game is a relatively simple Simon-like pattern memorization game using the DualShock's face buttons.

    Backstage With Guitar Hero launches in North America tomorrow.
