You know what? I love Guitar Hero, but Activision's marketing f*cking sucks. =/

Sadly, we'll never know if Jimi Hendrix would have been any good at Guitar Hero, but thanks to Activision, the game's developers, we now have a reasonable idea of what he'd have looked like wielding its dedicated controller...

Yes, there's a pic.

To celebrate the fact that there will be two Guitar Hero performances on the main stage at this year's Isle of Wight Festival, Activision has re-branded the bronze statue of Hendrix that sits in the grounds of the island's Dimbola Lodge, turning Jimi's guitar into the aforementioned video game peripheral.

What.

That really is awful... more evidence that Activision just doesn't get it.

It'll probably still more more entertaining than The Police putting on a strictly by-the-numbers performance on the final day. How the mighty have fallen yaddayadda

As soon as I saw that picture I thought, "Hersey! and Blasphemer!"
Whoever put those little props on the statue needs to have their ability to rock revoked permanently.
