Joe Fisher, producer at Vicarious Visions, has said Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock will be the first title on Wii offering Twitter and Facebook support.

Speaking during and event for the game in San Fransisco this week, Fisher said Warriors of Rock on Wii will also include special awards you can tweet about as well.

"We’ve done a lot in the online realm this year," he told attendees (via Nintendojo). "We are the first Wii title to support social networking sites, with Facebook and Twitter.

"When your friends do accomplishments in the game, you can broadcast those to your friends as well as to social networking sites. We’ve also incorporated a Wii award system, so when you do specific challenges in the game, you get credited for an award. You can share those with your online friends as well."

Good for the Nintendo crowd then.

Warriors of Rock is out September 24 and 28 in the UK and US, respectively.

A demo for the game is now available on XBL.

Thanks, GoNintendo.
