    Heh, other places like cheatplanet.com (AKA GamesRadar) already knew that ACWii was becoming an MMO.

    IMO, I think that even in ‘08, it seems way too soon for there to be a GH4. I say they wait until a bunch more songs get released before they make a new Guitar Hero game; it’ll give them more good songs to choose from.
