Update: Official press release after the break.
Over at Joystiq. The track list isn't bad, actually. There's Radiohead, Johnny Cash and a bit of Duran Duran too. However, we must stress, that we're far too manly and butch to partake in such a game, but you lot might like it, and we can respect that. Just.
There's a video over there too, if you're interested. Game's been confirmed for a November 21 release in Europe.
