It sounded weird to begin with, as it was Guitar Hero, not Rock Band, as the subject of an entire South Park episode in season 11. But Rock Band is an MTV Game, and Comedy Central is part of Viacom, which also owns MTV. So, maybe someone went rogue, made up some tracks for a competing game because that's what was used in the show, and got shot down. Or, as Xbox 360 Fanboy speculates, retailers said "Rock Band" meaning "Guitar Hero," the same way I still hear old people still say "Sega" when they mean "any console you plug into a TV." (Yes, "Sega." It was in the grocery store about 10 days ago. I know, I know.)

Who knows. Bottom line, you're not getting any South Park Rock Band tracks. Cartman thinks your tears are yummy and sweet.

Several readers tipped us, including Riven, who supplied images from NeoGAF. And Crecente just emailed to say, yup, it's on his box, too. Pictures after the jump.

I'm wondering if the designer Capcom hired couldn't get the hi-res originals from his own client, and googled them off of IGN? No idea, but this is some real stank on Capcom, at least for insiders.

Here is the cover. The IGN watermark is next to the dog's mouth. You have to squint.

Here's a blowup pointing it out.

And here is the picture apparently used to create the background.

Oopsie!
