    That song is terrible. It plays all the time to advertise baseball on TBS, and it's ugh. It's the most generic crap I have ever heard.

    Hearing that would make me not want the game. And I already don't want it, so I guess it would make me want to steal and resell a copy of the game.

    Bon Jovi? Really? Aren't they like putting out generic pop and country music now? I thought their career died after that brief resurgence back in 2001. Moreover, why would you want to use a washed up old 80s band to promote your game?

    . . . Then again, DoA2: Ultimate did use Aerosmith for it's opening scene.

    @SacGamer: I never said their old stuff wasn't great. In fact, quite the opposite. They were an awesome band . . . in the 80s. Since then? Not so much.

    @spiderweb1986: Hence the "Aren't they making generic pop and country music?" statement now. I realize they still, you know . . . exist. It's a far cry from when they were actually popular though.

    @Yossarian: touche. i don't really get where all the "toxic waste" comments stem from. the only "dirty" parts of new jersey are the big cities like trenton, newark and jersey city. for the most part, the state is pretty damn clean considering the population (and much cleaner than say, new york city).

    they don't call it the garden state for nothing..

    It's crazy that he played with Mr. Big, relatively conservative stuff, when he has more skill and shreds harder than 99% of the guitarists on the planet.

I don't really like their songs per se, but they used to really shred back before Paul Gilbert left. And Billy Sheehan is amazing. Just sort of funny how popular they are in Japan. #squareenix

    For some crazy reason, anything later than the eighties seem recent, no matter how rare. It would be nice to have, but if I had millions, I would be looking for much older stuff.
